Complaint Summary
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
Owner Narrative
TWICE THE ENGINE IN THIS VEHICLE HAS QUIT WITHOUT WARNING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. 1ST ON 9/1/2008 @ 27,300 MILES, 2ND ON 6/23/2009 @ 35,400 MILES. IN BOTH CASES THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AS SOON AS SAFELY POSSIBLE. THIS ISSUE COULD RESULT IN A SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE SINCE THERE IS A LOSS OF STEERING AND BRAKE CONTROLS WHEN THE ENGINE QUITS. THE DEALER HAS TRIED TO REPAIR BUT CANNOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE EMAILED FORD MOTOR ASKING THAT THEY HAVE A TECHNICIAN CONTACT THE DEALER TO WORK TOGETHER TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT ASAP. IN THE MEANTIME I AM CONCERNED THAT DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. *TR
