Consumer Description

WHEN EVER MY CAR HITS OVER 250 DEGREE'S IT WILL STALL OUT , YOU THEN HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE ENGINE COOLS TO START IT BACK UP , THIS MAINLY OCCUR,S WHEN IT IT VERY WARM OUT SIDE.I FIRST HAD THIS HAPPEN WHEN I WAS TRAVELING DOWN ON INTERSTATE IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMP WAS ABOUT 95 DEGREE'S ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR JUST DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. THIS PROBLEM HAD OCCURED SEVERAL TIME BEFOR WHILE DRIVING IN MY HOME TOWN JUST DOING 30- 45 MILES PER HOUR OR SITTING AT A RED LITE .I HAVE READ THAT FORD HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MODULER ON EARLIER MODELS I WENT TO OUR FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDNT JUST FIX IT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT SINCE MY CAR WAS A 1996 NOT A 1995 I FEEL IF FORD NEW THAT THE EARLIER MODELS HAD THIS PROBLEM THEY SHOULD BE WILLING TO FIX IT ON MINE ALSO. *AK
