SO, IF SOMEONE GOT A FLAT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE AND NEEDED TO CHANGE THEIR TIRE, BUT COULDN'T REMOVE THE LUG NUTS, THAT'S NOT A SAFETY CONCERN? AS WIDESPREAD AS THIS ISSUE IS, WOULDN'T IT BE PRUDENT TO RETHINK THIS? I DON'T HAVE PICTURES OF MY OLD LUG NUTS, THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THEM, BUT I DO HAVE A RECEIPT FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THEM.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WHICH HAS NOW HAPPENED 4 TIMES. THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES DOWN. THE DASH GOES DARK, THE A/C DOES NOT WORK, THE TURN SIGNALS DON'T WORK, THE DOORS AND WINDOWS WILL NOT WORK AND I CANNOT EVEN GET OUT OF THE CAR. IT DOES NOT HELP TO TURN OFF AND RESTART THE CAR, EVERYTHING WILL START WORKING EVENTUALLY ON ITS OWN. I CAN STEER AND BRAKE, BUT THAT IS ALL. THIS LAST TIME I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND WAS FRIGHTENED THAT I WOULD BE HIT BEFORE I COULD GET ON THE SHOULDER. WHEN I TOOK IT IN, AS USUAL, THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. IT WAS SUGGESTED THAT I CONTACT FORD FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE. THEY DENIED MY REQUEST, SAYING I WAS OUTSIDE THE TIME PERIOD FOR FILING. THE CASE NUMBER IS FMA CAS-22012807. I BOUGHT THE CAR AT RACEWAY FORD IN HARTSVILLE, SC, WHERE I RESIDED, IN MARCH OF 2016. I FIRST HAD TROUBLE WITH IT IN JUNE, 2016 AND TOOK IT IN. THE AGAIN IN DECEMBER, 2016 AND JANUARY, 2018. I HAVE SINCE MOVED TO DES MOINES, IA AND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN IN JULY, 2019. THE CAR HAS LESS THEN 19,000 MILES AND I FEEL VERY DANGEROUS. IN JANUARY, 2018 THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE COMPUTER SYSTEM BUT THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. I HOPE THERE IS SOMETHING THAT THE NHTSA CAN HELP WITH.
