2004 FORD FOCUS — SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP

THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED 6 TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THEY GO OUT EVERY 3 TO 4,000 MILES. I HIT A TREE WITH THE SIDE OF MY CAR BECAUSE I HAD NO BRAKES AT ALL AT ON POINT WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE CAR GIVES NO WARNING WITH THE BRAKES. I TALKED TO FORD ABOUT WHO WAS GOING TO BE LIABLE IF I WRECKED AND SOMEBODY GOT HURT. THEY SAY IT MY PROBLEM. I'M NOT GETTING ANYWHERE WITH THE DEALERSHIP. THEY JUST TELL ME I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE. I FEEL MY CAR IS VERY UNSAFE ON THE ROAD. I ALSO HAVE A 4YEAR OLD THAT I WON'T DARE PUT IN THE CAR. JUST FOR THE FACT THAT THERE MAY NO BRAKES WHEN I STOP. O DO ADMIT IN THE FIRST 6,000 MILES I USED IT FOR BUSINESS. THEY STATED MY JOB WAS THE CAUSE OF IT. BUT I NO LONGER USE THIS CAR FOR MY BUSINESS. AND EVERYTIME I CALL THE FORD HOTLINE ABOUT MY CAR'S BRAKE PROBLEM. THEY JUST ALSO BLAME IT ON MY JOB. I TOLD THEM I NO LONGER DO THE JOB IN THIS CAR. THEY JUST ASSUME I DO. I DO USE MY CAR FOR ERRANDS AND JUST DRIVING AROUND. *AK
