 Recall #78v143000 re fuel tank on all ford pintos & mercury bobcats built from 1971 to 1976 ford motor co, refuses to acknowledge me and/or the recall because, there system (i'm told) is set-up for an 18 digit i.d. number, my auto has only 11 digits (because of the year) what i want to know is who to contact, where top go. i would suggest this is not that difficult a question to answer, but ford won't help me. *tr
