DRIVER REPORTED INTERMITTENT CRUISE CONTROL ISSUE. WHEN RESEARCHING POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO THE ISSUE BECAME AWARE OF CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATION SWITCH ISSUE. IT IS UNDER FORD RECALL 05S28. IT IS BY ALL ACCOUNTS, A FIRE HAZARD. ON 6/23/2015 TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO A FORD DEALER IN ROCHESTER, N.Y.FOR SERVICE UNDER THE RECALL. THE SERVICE ADVISOR CALLED SAYING FORD HAD DECLINED SERVICE, AND THE REPAIR WORK WOULD BE CHARGEABLE. FORDS STANCE WAS THAT THE VEHICLE "SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN EARLIER". WE RECEIVED NO RECALL NOTICES ON THIS VEHICLE, CASE IN POINT NEITHER THE GIRL THAT SETS THE SERVICE APPOINTMENTS, OR THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE DEALER COULD 'GET THE VIN TO GO IN" THIS RECALL IS IS FORDS RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE, COVERING FULLY WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.
FORD V10 TRITON BLOWS UP A SPARK PLUG WHILE WE ARE LOOKING AT THE ENGINE OUR RV FILLED WITH PROPANE, WITH MY HANDICAP SON AND GRANDCHILD IN THE RV. HEARD A LOUD LIFTER NOISE, PULLED OVER TO LOOK AT THE ENGINE, AS MY HUSBAND WAS LOOKING AT THE ENGINE THEN THE LOUD EXPLOSION THOUGHT WE BLEW A MOTOR I CAME OUT TO SEE IF MY HUSBAND WAS OK, THANK GOD THE PLUG COIL AND OTHER STUFF MISSED HIS HEAD. FUEL, COIL, PROPANE THIS IS NOT A GOOD MIXTURE FOR GETTING YOUR RV TO THE REPAIR SHOP, THIS ENGINE IS A DEADLY AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE THE SPARK PLUG AND OTHER STUFF SHOT OUT AS IF FROM A CANNON! THIS RV WE USE TAKE MY VENTILATOR DEPENDENT SON [XXX] TO HIS DOCTORS? APPOINTMENTS, ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS I BOUGHT THIS RV WAS FOR MY HANDICAP SON. THIS RV WE TAKE ON OUR FAMILY VACATIONS WITH OUR HANDICAP CHILDREN IN THIS RV FULL OF PROPANE,. FORD NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINES BEFORE THERE IS A CATASTROPHE. DO I GET THIS PLUG REPAIRED IN (HOPES) IT STAYS AND DOES NOT BLOW UP AGAIN? IS THIS NOT TAKE A CHANCE ON (HOPE) THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN WHILE ON THE ROAD? AND (HOPE) IT DOES NOT IGNITE AND (HOPE) THE FULL PROPANE TANK DOES NOT EXPLODE? 'INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *TR
