No summary listed for above vehicle.
Dash board "abs" light comes on and stays on intermittently. Since vehicle has low mileage but is out of warranty for time, Ford motor company estimates $750. 00 to repair however do not think that a component of this nature should fail at this low mileage since the vehicle is used in very light duty as evidenced by mileage shown since purchased in June 1996.
While at a stop the van accelerated on its own and overrode the brakes. This problem caused a crash in April of 1997 and several near misses. Dealer was not able to duplicate problem, and find out what was causing the problem. Please provide any further information.
