Dt: the cross over of the fuel improperly overfills the second tank, spilling fuel out of vehicle. there were 2 safety recalls of this item. but ford was saying that one recall was taken care of by a previous owner. the second recall expired, and ford will not fix this problem. ford has been contacted by the customer and the repair facility. ford was still not willing to help. this has been a problem for a couple of months. the customer was having it repaired at his own expense. if there was a safety issue on this problem it should be taken care off by dealer no matter how many times it comes up.  view

Dt: contact has no brakes between 0-10 mph. brakes do work at other speeds. the vehicle wa seen by a local dealer who wanted to charge for repairs. the caller saw a recall for canadian vehicles in regard to what may be this same problem. the problem was front wheel speed sensor corrosion. there has been no accident although there were three near misses. the first incident was a year ago.  view

We have a 2000 jeep grand cherokee that has had consistent brake problems. since 2001, we have had to resurface the rotors six times and the vehicle is experiencing the same problem today. this is not an operator problem, but is a safety problem with the front brakes. i have discussed this wth my mechanic and he says it is a consistent problem with these cars.  view

1999 hyundai accent rear window exploded while driving.  view

1.normal driving , window starting to fog up. turn on defroster. 2. instantly total loss of visability because of windshield being covered with heavey fog 3.nothing done, i thought i must have had something set wrong in the heater/ defroster buttons. i pulled over tried several different settings and window eventually cleared. (this fog was to the degree that i would not have started on my trip until i cleared the windshield if it had been like that when i got into the vehicle) i have nevr been able to determine when this is going to happen or any way to prevent it. it is however very dangerous . even after the fog has occured, it is difficult to get it to clear quickly. it can happen when the car is cold or very warmed up.i had to put in a speed but this is truly irrelevant.  view
