What 2002 Ford Motor Home owners say
Speed control & acceleration
Tl contact owns a 2002 Ford Motor Home. While driving 35 MPH, the vehicle began smoking. The vehicle erupted into a self-contained fire, which extinguished itself out. The cruise control was replaced by the Ford dealer and the contact would like to be reimbursed for the repair costs. He stated that Ford is giving him the run around. The purchase date, powertrain, and dealer information were unknown. The current mileage was 65,000 and failure mileage was 55,000.
Ford recall notice issued in September 2007 pertaining to the speed control system. I have tried several times to get the local dealer to service my vehicle according to the "recall notice". He has told me that he does not have the necessary parts from Ford and to call back. How am I to get this resolved?
