STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE DOOR SKIN IS CRACKING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW REARWARD. IT IS VISIBLE FROM OUTSIDE AND GOES UNDER THE RUBBER TRIM TO THE EDGE OF WINDOW FRAME. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD QUALITY CARE, AND A FORD DEALERSHIP HERE IN WICHITA. NO HELP IN GETTING IT FIXED. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A MORE MAJOR FAILURE OF THE DOOR OR COULD BE UNSAFE IN A SIDE IMPACT COLLISION. THE DOOR SEEMS TO FLEX AT THE POINT OF THE CRACK WHEN ROLLING WINDOW UP AND DOWN.*AK

#753995November 1, 2001
STEERING:GEAR BOX (OTHER THAN RACK AND PINION)
LOOSE STEERING, SECOND (REPLACEMENT) STEERING GEAR. THE ORIGINAL STEERING GEAR WAS NOISY AND THE DEALER REPLACED IT WITH A USED, REBUILT UNIT AT 3,264 MILES. CURRENT (USED) GEAR HAS EXCESSIVE FREE PLAY, THE VEHICLE WANDERS AND IS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY. FORD REFUSES TO SUPPLY THE DEALER WITH A NEW GEAR. THE DEALER REFUSES TO REPLACE OR ADJUST THE LOOSE GEAR. I FEEL THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE IS IN QUESTION WITH THE USED GEAR IN IT DUE TO LACK OF TRACEABILITY OF THE GEAR IN CASE OF A RECALL OR SAFETY CAMPAIGN. *AK

AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
I WAS INVOLVED IN A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WHERE AS I WAS INJURED BY THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG UPON DEPLOYMENT OF SAID DEVICE. WHE IT WAS DEPLOYED THE COVER PART HIT MY RIGHT FOREARM CAUSING IT TO HAVE A LARGE KNOT ON IT AND INSTANT SWELLING TO THE POINT I HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL FOR EXRAYS TO SEE IF IT WAS BROKEN, WHICH IT WASN'T. WHEN THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED THE ACTUAL AIRBAG DID NOT COME STRAIGHT OUT TOWARDS ME INSTEAD IT WENT OUT SIDE WAYS NEVER EVEN TOUCHING ME. I CALOLED FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT WS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND TO CONTACT MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I WAS NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING I JUST WANTED THEM TO CHECK INTO THE MATTER BUT I JUST GOT THE RUNAROUND. I FEEL THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG AND IT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I HOPE SOMETHING WILL BE DONE ABOUT IT.*AK
