REC'D INITIAL SAFETY RECALL (14S22) LETTER DEC. 2014 & 2ND NOTICE APRIL 2016 FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED BY MY AUTHORIZED DEALER, RAMSEY FORD. MAY 16TH RAMSEY'S PPWORK INDICATES THE A SEALANT WAS APPLIED. MY VEHICLE FAILED INSPECTION THIS APRIL BECAUSE THE GAS TANK WAS CORRODED AND LEAKING GAS! I CALLED FORD & SPOKE TO THEIR CUST. SER. REP, WHO REFUSED TO ACCEPT THAT THIS TANK WAS NOT REPAIRED PROPERLY & THAT THEY SHOULD REPLACE IT AT NO COST. THEY REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITY. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE TANK, BUT THEY ARE TOO LARGE TO INCLUDE WITH THIS FORM!

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPR AND MY 08 FORD EDGE MADE A NOISE THE ODOMETER WENT TO ZERO AND WENT FROM 70 MPR ON THE HIGHWAY TO 0 IT WOULD NOT GO. I'M SO THANKFUL MY KIDS WEREN'T IN THE CAR AND I WAS ABLE TO GO OFF THE EXIT RAMP BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES ALL ON THE HIGHWAY BEFORE OR AFTER WORK. EACH THE TIME CAR WAS TOLLED FROM WORK OR WHERE IT STOPPED RUNNING. TAKEN TO SHOPS TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG THEY CAN FIND ANYTHING. THE LAST EPISODE HAPPENED MOTHERS DAY THE CAR WAS TOLLED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 1 WEEK AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING THEY TOLD ME TO TRADE IF OFF ITS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE... SO I'M COMPLETELY BAFFLED WHY A DEALERSHIP WOULD TELL ME TO TRADE THE CAR SO SOMEONE ELSE COULD POSSIBLY GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE. I COULD NOT TO DO IT. THE CAR IS NOW NOT COMING ON WITHOUT A JUMP AND HAS NOT BE DRIVEABLE SINCE MOTHERS DAY 2017 WHEN IT DID ALL THE ABOVE AGAIN. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE OCTOBER 2015 A YEAR AFTER GETTING IT. WE HAVE ALL THE DOCUMENTATIONS AND RECEIPTS OF PAYING LOTS OF MONEY OUT OF POCKET. NOT ONE PERSON EVER TOLD ME TO CHECK ON THIS SITE FOR SAFETY ISSUES EVEN KNOWING THE CAR STOPS ON THE HIGHWAY AT ANY GIVEN MOMENTS AND UNRELIABLE OR FAULTY UNTIL I CALLED OUT AUTO INSURANCE TODAY AND WE SEEN ALL OF THIS!! WHAT A MESS I HAVE CONTACTED A CLASS ACTION CASE AS OF TODAY!

WRENCH LIGHT, DASHES ON ODOMETER, SPEEDOMETER ON ZERO, AIRBAG LIGHT ON. LOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. IT HAS HAPPENED 6 TIMES THIS MONTH, USUALLY ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER I'VE HAD TO SLOW DOWN WITH TRAFFIC AND TRY TO ACCELERATE AGAIN. GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR A PARKING LOT AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. RESTART IT ALL WARNING LIGHTS ARE GONE BUT STILL WILL NOT ACCELERATE. SHIFT IN AND OUT OF REVERSE AND DRIVE WITH VERY LOUD KNOCKING AND JERKING. MOVE CAR BACK AND FORTH. RESTART AND REPEAT MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE IT RESETS ITSELF. IT NEVER HAPPENS BY SOMEWHERE THAT CAN SCAN IT TO GET A CODE. AS THE WRENCH LIGHT GOES OFF AND STAYS OFF AFTER YOU RESTART THE CAR NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I AM QUICKLY LOSING FAITH IN FORD AND THEIR REGARDS FOR CUSTOMERS SAFETY. GOOD THING I DON'T LIVE WHERE THERE ARE MOUNTAINS BECAUSE IF I DID I AM SURE I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT BY NOW. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE THIS WEEK. 5 TIMES WERE HIGHWAY 1 WAS ON A BUSY 4 LANE ROAD. IT HAS JERKED WHEN SHIFTING AROUND 45 MPH FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS NOW.

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS TIMES TO DETERMINE WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PART(S) FOR THIS RECALL WILL BE IN. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION AS TO THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. I HAVE CALLED OTIS FORD, OF OTIS FORD IN QUOGUE NEW YORK AND THEY HAVE NO ANSWER AS TO WHEN THEY WILL HAVE ACCESS TO THE REPAIR MATERIALS. LUCKILY NOTHING HAS HAPPENED SO FAR, BUT I AM FEARFUL OF ACCIDENTS THAT COULD INJURE MY FAMILY. A LETTER WAS SENT IN MARCH 2017, AND STILL NO INFORMATION.
