2007
EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:AIR CONDITIONER
THE AC IS NOT WORKING ON MY FORD 500. IT STARTED THIS SEASON. I HAVE NOT HAD TROUBLE WITH IT PRIOR TO THIS YEAR. I HAVE NOT SEEN A RECALL ON THIS BUT MY SISTER ALSO HAS A 500 AND HERS ISN'T WORKING AS WELL. MANY COMPLAINTS ARE BEING LISTED. I HAVE NOT TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO BEING OUT OF WARRANTY AND IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR. PLEASE, PLEASE CONSIDER A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. MANY 500 OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT'S ONE THING FOR IT TO HAPPEN TO A SMALL NUMBER, BUT NUMBERS ARE INCREASING WITH THIS ISSUE. *TT

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:PADS
THIS IS IN REGARD TO A 2006 FORD FIVE HUNDRED WITH REAR BRAKE GRINDING. I RECEIVED A NOTICE ( 07N10)FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY JULY 2007 . IT STATED THAT MY VEHICLE MAY HAVE HAD DIRECT EXPOSURE TO MOISTURE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THE BRAKE PADS TO SWELL AND CREATE A SLIGHT DRAG CONDITION. LOW LEVELS OF BRAKE DRAG COULD LEAD TO PREMATURE BRAKE PAD WEAR. AT 36,000 MILES THE REAR BRAKES BEGAN TO GRIND . THE REAR BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE . WHEN I BROUGHT THE AUTO TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THE FRONT AND REAR BRAKES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS AN ALL WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE. WHEN THE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE TO HAVE THE REPAIRS COMPLETED AT THE DEALER I WAS INSURED ALL THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. TO MY SURPRISE THE DEALER DID NOT HAVE ALL THE NEEDED PARTS TO MAKE THE REPAIRS. FORTUNATELY ANOTHER DEALER IN THE AREA HAD THE NEEDED PARTS. THE DEALER FURNISHED A LOANER CAR FOR 5 DAYS . WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR ONLY THE REAR BRAKES WERE REPLACED. IF THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE IS IN FACT "MOISTURE" THEN WHY WOULDN'T ALL THE PADS NEED TO BE REPLACED? *TR
