1999 Ford Ford Truck

RE: FORD MOTOR COMPANY TRUCK WINDSHIELDS NOT SEALED PROPERLY WHILE DRIVING IN A HARD RAIN, I HAVE A 99 FORD EXPEDITION AND IT SOMEHOW HAD WATER LEAK INTO THE FUSE PANEL SHORTING IT OUT, ALSO SHORTED OUT THE GEM AND THE PCM. THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL, SMOKE FROM DASH. THERE WERE NO FLAMES, HOWEVER SOMETHING WAS BURNING SOMEWHERE. TRUCK QUIT RUNNING. BROKE DOWN 165 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. FIRST WE TRIED A "NEW" BATTERY, TRIED JUMPING IT NOTHING WORKED. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE CLOSEST FORD DEALER - LAKE FORD IN LEWISTOWN, PA. THEY SAY IT NEEDS A NEW FUSE PANEL, GEM, PCM OVER $800 AND THIS DOESN'T EVEN GUARANTEE A RUNNING VEHICLE. ALSO THEY SAY THAT EVEN IF THE VEHICLE DOES START THERE WILL BE NO AIRBAGS! OR RADIO (THEY WERE SHORTED INTERNALLY). THE SAFETY ISSUE I'D LIKE TO REPORT IS THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TRUCK CUTS OUT INSTANTLY. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED APPROX. 6 MOS. BEFORE THIS INCIDENT . AGAIN DRIVING IN A HARD RAIN I WAS PULLING OUT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. LUCKILY I DIDN'T PULL ALL THE WAY OUT IN FRONT OF THE TRAFFIC BEFORE MY TRUCK JUST QUIT RUNNING. HAD TO PUSH IT OFF THE ROAD AND A JUMP GOT IT STARTED THIS TIME. AT THIS TIME I HAD NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THIS. SINCE THEN I TALKED TO OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THEY SAID FORD KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS AND THEY EVEN HAVE A NAME FOR IT - THEY CALL IT "WATER INTRUSION". I URGE YOU TO HAVE THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY PUT IN A RECALL ON THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED OUT THERE!. *NM
