NHTSA complaint: 2000 FORD RANGER — VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL
ENGINE FIRE IN 2000 FORD RANGER 4X4 PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WITH THE ENGINE TURNED OFF OCCOURED DEC 31ST 2006 APPROX. 4:00 PM. I HAVE REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD GET ME A RESPONSE LETTER IN 7-10 DAYS. I DID NOT HAVE FULL COVERAGE AS THE VEHICLE WAS PAID FOR W/ 131K MILES BUT PLANNED ON DRIVING THE TRUCK 100K MORE. I BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS CAUSED DUE TO THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH I HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT ON THE WEB BUT DUE TO NOT HAVING FULL COVERAGE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR AN INVESTIGATION MYSELF THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD. *NM
