 Ford motor company recalled 7.5 million trucks with defective ignition switches made from 1988-1996. their logic was that the defective ignition switches began being used in 5/87, thus not recalling 83-87 models. my complaint is that i have a late model 87 produced 6/87, which by ford's own logic, has a defective ignition switch, but no recall on 87 models. i would like for the nhtsa to petition ford to step up and recall late model 87 trucks to replace this ignition switch. my truck hasn't caught fire yet, but it has smoked from the steering column once before and i don't sleep well at night knowing i might wake up to a flaming truck.
