2000 Ford Excursion Driver assistance Problems

2000 Ford Excursion recall was never done. Allan Vigil Ford in Clayton County GA disconnected my airbag, horn, and cruise control. They stated that a part was on order to complete the recall. We checked up on this over and over and over, the part was always "on order". This part was never installed/replaced on my car and the three things that were disconnected were never re-connected. Yet, they reported it as competed. This was 2010 I believe. Ford shows this recall as "complete", however it is not. We called Allan Vigil Ford recently, however no one will return our calls.

ON 26JAN06 I TOOK MY 2000 FORD EXCURSION LIMITED EDITION TO EDDIE YALKLIN FORD DEALERSHIP IN KINGSVILLE TEXAS FOR A SAFETY INSPECTION OF MY SUV DUE TO THE FACT THAT I HAD A FIRE AND SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD OF THE EXCURSION AFTER A TRIP. WHEN I TOOK THE EXCURSION AND THEY INSPECTED IT THEY COULD SEE WHERE THE FIRE HAD STARTED, IT WAS COMING FROM A SWITCH THAT IS LOCATED ON THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER BODY AREA. I TOLD THEM THAT THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE SMOKE AND FIRE FROM STARTING WAS TO DISCONNECT THE ELECTRIC WIRE CONNECTOR WHICH WAS FROM THE CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH FROM THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER SYSTEM. AFTER GOING OVER ALL THIS WITH THE SERVICE REP. THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS AT THIS TIME. WELL I TOLD HIM THAT I KNEW ABOUT THE OTHER FORD TRUCKS AND SUV THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND SOME DID HURT PEOPLE BECAUSE THE CARS CAUGHT ON FIRE IN THE GARAGE AND WELL YOU KNOW WHERE IM GOING WITH THIS AND THE SERVICE REP. SAID THAT THEY WOULD BE REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PARTS BUT THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY. I TOLD THEM NO THAT WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A SAFETY DEFECT FROM FORD AND I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THAT. I EXPLAINED TO THE SERVICE REP. THAT NOW THE BRAKE FLUID WAS LEAKING OUT ALSO AND THAT IF I LOOSE MY BRAKES WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. THEY JUST ACTED LIKE IT WAS NO BIG DEAL AND SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED. THIS IS AS WE ALL KNOW A SAFETY HAZARD AND FORD KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND KNOWS HOW FIRES HAVE KILLED PEOPLE AND HURT MANY OF THEM AND I DON'T WANT TO BE A VICTIM. *NM

I PURCHASED MY 2000 FORD EXCURION IN SUMMER 2003. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED SEVERAL TIMES TIMES FOR STAYING ON RANDOMLY. THE BACKUP BEEPER HAS NEVER WORKED AND WHEN I TRIED TO HAVE BOTH ITEMS REPAIRED UNDER THE $2000 EXTENDED WARRANTY I BOUGHT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOT COVERED. I ALSO HAVE SEEN THE RECORDS FOR THIS VEHICLE FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER (THAT THE DEALERSHIP ACCIDENTALLY SENT ME) AND THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEMS AS I HAVE BEFORE I EVER PURCHASED IT AND THAT WAS NOT DISCLOSED. THE PAINT IN THE WINTER OF 2003-2004 STARTED PEELING OFF OF THE AREA BOVE THE WINDSHIELD AND THE ROOF OF MY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE IT HAD BEEN REPAINTED. I TOOK IT TO A BODY SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PAINT LINES SHOW THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER REPAINTED AND THAT THEY HAVE SEEN SEVERAL FORD VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM, AND FORD IS VERY RELUCATANT TO HELP PEOPLE IN THI SITUATION.. MY HUSBAND NOW HAS A FORD TRUCK TOO WHICH HE PURCHASED USED, AND HAS THE SAME INTERIOR LIGHT PROBLEMS I HAVE. THE LAST TIME I CONTACTED THE DEALER TO HAVE THE FORD REPRESENTATIVE CONTACT ME, I NEVER EVEN RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM THE SERVICE MANAGER OR FORD. THEY IGNORE MY CONTACT AND CALLS, ESPECIALLY RANDY IN THE SERVICE DAPARTMENT. THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT I MADE TO THEM WAS 2 1/2 YEARS AGO AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO HELP ME OR RESOLVE MY PROBLEM. *NM
