| Ford needs serious help! So Kevin's picking up the bike to replace the frame or whatever and get it legal on the road, and I'm sitting in Mitchell's living room because I sure as hell didn't want to be left alone with his dad and that crazy woman! So we're driving down the road, thank goodness it wasn't busy!, and the engine cuts off. The radio still works, the air is on, and so is the engine light but we can't go anywhere. The only thing running through my mind is that we're going to get hit and we have got to get the car off the road! So Kevin hits the flashers and is trying to push the car into a parking lot and he's having problems with the steering wheel. So I'm leaned over from the passenger seat just trying to make the wheel turn! It was a bitch! So he's pushing the car, and we're turning the wheel and the car gains some speed. It was comical to see Kevin jumping in a moving car. So we let it roll until it stops on it's own. I didn't want anything happening to the brakes! We put the car in park and take out the keys. We pop the hood open. Everything looks fine. Oil is good. Turn the car back on. Belt is running. So what the hell happened?! Neither one of us can figure it out. Our only possible solution is that he accidentally hit something. I'm about to call Ford and complain my ass off. I'm still under warranty. I'm going to use this car to drive my child around. I can't have it stalling on its own! What if that had happened on the freeway? We could be dead! Luckily, it was just a little back country road. I'm mad enough to walk into a dealership and demand a free check of everything. It pisses me off. I've had this car for about a year. I keep it clean and running. It has it's regular check ups and tire rotations and oil changes. I don't drive it over 3500 miles before I get the oil changed. I treat this car great and this is how I get repaid?! It cuts the engine off on me! Ford is going to do something or I'm calling corporate. Henry Ford would be appalled at the way they are making cars these days! |

You might have some grit in the car, by that I mean within a mechanism, it can cause a car to stall whilst running. The steering would have been heavy as the stall turns off the power steering.
