In addition, while driving at any speed, the vehicle shook abnormally and hesitated to accelerate. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 00v359001 (suspension). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was not available.

This car has had eight incidents in two years of coil packs failing. I have had multiple other problems with this car, ie (brakes, air conditioning electronics. . . ) Ford can't get the coil problems fixed.

I got my car in Jan. Of 2004, since then the dealership has seen it more than I have. The airbag light keeps coming on, window regulators keep going out, windows keep geting off track and making awful noises, windows slam shut, and the brakes are squealing but the dealship can never find the problem and when they do 'fix' these problems, a few weeks later they are broke again. I cant keep taking off work for this and the dealer I bought it from wont help me, and because it is a used car, there are no lemon laws. What can I do? help!!!.

When applying the brakes, the vehicle lurched forward. As a result, the vehicle experienced extended stopping distance . No impact was reported. Please provide additional information.

When approaching a stop the brakes do not hold. This is an intermittent problem and no common denominators can be found. The car will slow down when braking, but on occasion the car will continue moving even when brakes are fully applied, causing the vehicle to run stop signs, intersections, and rear ending other vehicles. Also when braking it takes a long distance to do so.
