| Description of the problem | Engine light came on car stalled several times, would not shift. You people know what the problem is fix it or i will go buy something other than a ford. I took it to a ford dealership service and found out that water got into the pmc module and terminals were corroded. Mechanic blow dried interior of pmc best he could silicon to seal the best he could and told me it was a temporary fix. Water keeps getting into the module. Why doesn't ford stand behind their mistakes and resolve the problem? I love my freestar but why should i pay for the manufacture engineering mistakes? |
