description: I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AT AROUND 30MPH WHEN EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL WENT DEAD IN MY CAR INCLUDING HEADLIGHTS AND DASHBOARD BUT THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME BUT COULD NOT START IT THE NEXT MORNING. HAD TO FLAT BED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE WHOLE COMPUTER SYSTEM FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS HAPPENED 3 MORE TIME SINCE THEN. EACH TIME I WAS CHARGED $3000 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. IT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN ONCE LET ALONE 3 TIMES. ANOTHER RECENT PROBLEM, MY ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE CAUSING EVERYTHING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF MY CAR TO BE REPLACED. FORD DENIED ANY "REAL PROBLEMS THEY COULD FIND". ALSO HAD MY GAS TANK REPLACED TWICE BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T FILL UP. AND TO ADD TO EVERYTHING, MY GEARSHIFT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE A LITTLE PLASTIC PIECE THAT HIDES THE HOLES WHEN U SHIFT UP OR DOWN, BROKE. $600 ESTIMATE AT FORD. AS WELL AS MY ENGINE SMOKING AFTER DRIVING FOR 2 HOURS AT 65-70 MPH. DO NOT BUY A FORD. IV'E SPENT OVER $12K FIXING THE PROBLEMS THAT I NEVER CAUSED. FORD REFUSED TO PAY A DIME OR TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. TOO MANY PROBLEMS CAUSING UNSAFE SITUATIONS FOR ME AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVERS AND PEDESTRIANS AROUND ME. *TR ## VIN FAILED ##
