Consumer Description
CAR IS SLUGGISH AND SPUTTERS WHEN SPEEDS OF 45 AND ABOVE ARE REACHED. THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO DROP OUT. CAR HAS STALLED ONCE AT A COMPLETE STOP. CAR HAS BEEN SEEN BY DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. CONTACTED FORD COMPANY AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE HAS WHAT THEY TERM AS THE V-TECH BLUES. THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ENGINE AND THE AC NOT WORKING WELL TOGETHER. CAR HAS TROUBLE BOTH W/ AND WITHOUT AC ON. TOLD THAT THIS WAS JUST HOW THIS CAR RUNS. NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT.*AK
