1999 Ford Expedition Electrical System

ONLY A VERY SMALL AREA ON STEERING WHEEL IS DESIGNATED FOR HORN. HAVE BEEN IN SEVERAL SITUATOINS WHERE I NEEDED TO HONK THE HORN QUICKLY AND HIT THE STEERING WHEEL HARD WITH PALM OF HAND AND THE HORN DID NOT SOUND. YOU MUST LOOK DOWN AND FIND THE TINY HORN SYMBOLS THAT ARE THE SAME COLOR AS THE STEERING WHEEL AND PRESS HARD WITH ONE OR TWO FINGERS. NOT A VERY USER-FRIENDLY DESIGN TO SAY THE LEAST. THE FORD DEALER AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY ISSUE WITH THE HORN DESIGN. *AK

VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN SCHOOL PARKING LOT AND THE VEHICLE JUST STARTED UP WITH NO KEYS IN THE IGNITION. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT. CONSUMER WENT IN, CAME OUT, AND THE TRUCK WAS RUNNING. KEY WAS IN THE CONSUMER'S POCKET. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST FIVE TIMES. CONTACTED THE DEALER. THEY ADMITTED THERE WAS A PROBLEM, BUT COULDN'T RESOLVE IT. *AK

EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS GOING OUT ON TWO OCCASIONS. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPER LIGHT GOES ON AND CHIMES WHENEVER IT FEELS LIKE IT. ALL PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE DEALER KNOW STATES THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS YET ; THEY WILL CONTACT ME WHEN THERE IS A FIX. IN THE MEANTIME, I AM DRIVING A CAR THAT DISTRACTS EVERY DAY WITH THIS SENSOR LIGHT AND CHIMING. THE WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO LEAVE MY CAR A FOURTH TIME FOR REPAIR. I THINK THIS IS DUE TO THE CA LEMON LAW. HELP!!!!! WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS-WHAT CAN I DO?

THE DESIGN FLAW OF THE HORN IS DIFFICULT TO FIND IN AN EMERCENCY WHICH POSSIBLY COULD PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. *YC

WHENEVER THE HORN, LOCATED ON STEERING WHEEL, IS HIT WITH HEAL ON HEAL IT FAILS TO WORK. ONLY IT HAS WORKED WHEN SMALL PICTURE OF HORN WAS LOCATED & PRESSED. LOCATION OF HORN IS HAZARDOUS TO DRIVER. DIFFICULT TO USE IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. *AK
