I will never purchase another Ford. I bought this vehicle used from a dealership and since then, I have been back and forth to the repair shop. I plan on trading this vehicle in for a Honda or Toyota - something actually reliable! This vehicle has several open recalls with no anticipated remedy. This is negligent on the part of the manufacturer and should be illegal. If anyone knows of a class-action lawsuit against Ford, please advise me [contact info removed]!
