This Problem Across All Years
I HAVE TWO COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE. 1. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND HEAR A LOUD EXPLOSION THAT WAS THE MOONROOF,. 2. THE WATER PUMP WAS DEFECTIVE AND PUT COOLANT INTO MY OIL AND RUINED THE ENGINE. THIS SEEMS TO HAVE HAPPENED WAY TOO MANY TIMES FOR THIS NOT TO BE A RECALL ON BOTH OF THESE. MY CAR LITERALLY OVERHEATED OUT OF NOWHERE.

A GAS TYPE ODOR ENTERS CABIN OF VEHICLE. I BELIEVE IT TO BE CARBON MONOXIDE. I OFTEN HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS EVEN IN COLD WINTER WEATHER TO PREVENT CARBON MONOXIDE FROM OVERTAKING THE CABIN WHEN THE HEATING SYSTEM IS ON.

AFTER DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED OR HIGH LOAD AND THEN COMING TO A STOP, AN EXHAUST SMELL WILL FILL THE CABIN WITH VISIBLE SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. MY FRIEND WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND SAID HE ALMOST PASSED OUT, WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, BEFORE OPENING A WINDOW. I HAVE PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AS WELL, THINKING MY CAR WAS ON FIRE. FORD DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL OR KNOWN FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM.
