JEEZ!!!!
More faulty cruise control switches!
:(
Am I ever glad that I dumped ALL of my Ford stock 1 month ago when it had temporarily 'peaked' at $9.50/share.*
Now it is back in the dumper at @ $8.00/share!
Ford is trying to sell Volvo, Jaguar, and Land Rover in a last ditch attempt to gather all the cash that it can, while it can.
Poor Ford, I can't stand to watch them spiral into oblivion...at least now I don't have a vested interest.
* I put it to good use; paying for Marianne & my reception and honeymoon.

".at least now I don't have a vested interest."(quote) That is an interesting perspective, given your sig. It would not even be an honorable mention, if this recall pertained, to an import MFG.

Not a bad idea since it will be impossible to find our stock rear tires soon and we'll need it to adjust the speedo. It's late so I guess I will dream about it because it aint neva fonts 2 happen.

LOL, I wonder if I bring in my '95 SHO if they'll still fix it? They should since it's listed there. Sweet, I don't even have a line anyway, the previous owner cut it, and my buttons are kind of shot.

Caring and being warm and fuzzy doesn't doesn't pay the bills?

of course they will, recalls are done no matter what the car condition or age. They don't expire.
They will probably give you a $h!t list of recommend repairs though. It'll help to have 4 sale signs in car.

Jack's actions created pretty much all of Fords current troubles.

And what of Bill Ford's actions? Looks like the stock is 1/2 of what it was 5+ years ago under Jacque.
I made money on the stock 6+ years ago under Jacque. Interesting how when Jaque replaces Firestone and puts the blame on Firestone he becomes an idiot and is blamed for everything.
Could it be the Fords and Firestones are related?

Jac took reins when Ford was very well situated. He rode that high, but it is his actions that are being felt now, and it's his actions that Bill was stuck with trying to correct. Jac made many changes within Ford that put it in it's current direction, not just he buying of Aston, Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo.
With the exception of Volvo, pretty much all stupid buys.

Yes they will. I brought my 1992 SHO to the selling dealer, they did an open recall on the subframe mounts!

I was told that safety recalls like this are open ended.
