I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND LEFT IT FOR ABOUT A WEEK. THE SERVICE REP. I SPOKE WITH SAID THEY COULD FIND NO TROUBLE CODE AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I ASKED IF HE HAD SPOKEN WITH FORD ENGINEERING ABOUT THIS AND HE SAID NO. I ASKED HIM TO AND HE SAID HE WOULD. HE CALLED FORD ENGINEERING AND THEY SAID THEY HAD NO SOLUTION AND DENIED A PROBLEM.
