Compliant is that through my insurance provider i was alerted to two recalls that should be at least looked into on my auto. the first is the blower on the climate control began to work erratically and now it does not work at all. meaning that my defrosting does not work at all. the other and more serious is that the drivers side door latch sticks at smacks against the peg and does not latch properly or at all, unless the latch is manually lifted. both of these are recalls for other t-birds but somehow mine slipped through. vin is 1falp62w6th111113. if these are such common problems why weren't all the t-birds recalled? i am looking at over 600.00 to replace these parts. which is irritating when ford should be fixing it's known problems. *nm | |||

Multi function switch controlling (flasher, wiper, dimmer/bright light and widow wipers) is defective. my 1995 cougar (sister to a t-bird) also has the same problem. i am not sure what you want for them. if it means is the part original. the answer is yes. why ask this under vehicle? should it be under equipment? could you check on my previous complaint with my 95 cougar and see if it is answered correctly? all parts were original on that vehicle also. *jb |
