Ford recalled the car due to potential fire risk while driving. They are unable to repair the car and have no estimate on when the repairs will be made. Due to potential of fire while driving this car I will not drive this car and imperil my children. Ford has offered no loaner, buyback or similar offer. I am also unable to pass the NYS inspection as a result of the illuminated check engine light (from the recall).
