Description of the problem	It was rainy day and my wife was picking my daughter from school. It happened in the school zone. The car was in motion. Kids cross road as it was end of school day. Safety of passengers and other people was in danger. I have replaced in feb 2016 control unit and hcu spending $2400 +. At that time it had engine light on. It has again came back on 10/24/2017. Just to note, in 2010, spend $1600 + on the car because of issues in the vehicle. Had abs light on, normal driving. The car has only around 45000 miles. Rain water is causing issues. If google search done "ford freestar check engine light after rain", it hits lots of results. Ford know the issues. Ford even had following service bulletin. Technical service bulletin (tsb 06-14-10.) these minivans are safety hazards. What would it take to get something done, recall or get these minivans off roads ? Ford is not taking responsibility. Please force them to own the responsibility which they are not willingly take. I have documents for the repair that was done. In 2016, when check engine light was on, i was on highway driving 50 miles an hour and it was rainy. Car was shaking and seemed like losing power. Thanks, anil
