## Narrative
Found significant MOLD (toxic mold) all over passenger side floorboard area, under the carpet and throughout the padding, after increasing moldy/mildew smell. This is a "direct result" of a bad design (i.e. AC drain tube), where condensation flows back into the vehicle without Consumer/Owner knowledge. Technical Service Bulletin 19-2345.  RESULT: Consumers spend thousands of hours in a small contained cabin breathing-in toxic mold spores. I've been to the Doctor multiple times with headaches and flu-like symptoms, thinking it's COVID, and always testing negative. AND now it makes sense, symptoms occurred when driving and afterwards.  FORD IS AWARE OF THIS.  NHTSA is aware of this?  WHY ARE CONSUMERS NOT PROACTIVELY TOLD ABOUT THIS ISSUE.  THIS CAN KILL PEOPLE!  AND MANY ARE LIKELY SICK OR GOING TO GET SICK!  PLEASE INVESTIGATE BEFORE MORE PEOPLE ARE HURT FROM TOXIC MOLD POISONING.
