| Description of the problem | We bought our 2004 freestar new. Wife now is unable to drive it due to safety concerns. It stalls, misses, and bucks while driving. It is much worse after rain. We have taken to dealership and they want to do a tune-up. Took to local mechanic and he says that there is water in pcm. Have located hundreds of complaints in forums. Very expensive fix and it looks as though many people have had fixed several times. |
