Complaint
1993
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
VEHICLE WENT TO FULL THROTTLE WHEN SHIFTED INTO DRIVE GEAR. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT TURNED ON AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. FORD FACTORY SERVICE AND THE DEALER HAVE BEEN CONTACTED. DEALER HAS NO INFORMATION ON THIS FAILURE, BUT WILL TRY TO FIND OUT. DEALER HAS TEMPORARILY DISCONNECTED CRUISE CONTROL CABLE FROM THROTTLE FOR SAFETY PURPOSES UNTIL THE PROBLEM CAN BE RESOLVED. FORD HAS NOT RESPONDED TO MY COMPLAINT OTHER THAN TELL ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. I EXPECT THIS TO BE RESOLVED ASAP BY FORD THROUGH THEIR DEALER OR CONTACT ME DIRECTLY WITH RESOLUTION TO THIS SERIOUS LIFE THREATENING DEFECT. *AK
