Takata recall. my van will not shift out of 1 gear. only can reach maximum of 20 miles per hour.
I was backing down the driveway when my ford windstar 2003 engine started revving and i had to put both feet on the breaks to stop the car from running out of control. after i put both feet on the brakes to release the engine from revving did it stop. it happened again on the same day and it took all my strength to stop the ford windstar 2003 model. it could have done a lot of damage either to another car or a person. it is very dangerous and this problem has to be corrected or put on a recall basis before other people who might have the problem, can either get it fixed or taken off the road.
On may 24 while backing out of the driveway i was a passenger in my sons car when it suddenly accelerated at a tremendous rate of speed and with a loud noise and crashed into the vehicle in front, which was pushed into our shed. i sustained injuries of 6 broken ribs, bruised lung and contusions to my chest. if not for the car and shed in front we would have ended at the bottom of the hill behind our home. the insurance company, 21st century, did not send a claim form and is fighting paying for this accident.
The dealer located in the sandy spring rejected to the take remedy action on the recall 09s09. i complained to the dealer service department that the odometer is malfuntioning when it is in operation. it suddenly cause unknown acceleration when using the cruise control. it is also found out the brake hose is leaking as results of the speed control modification system by the local mechanic shop.

Abs light came on continually for the last 6000 miles. brought the vehicle to ford in plainville, ct and they told me there was no recall and the cost was to include a new computer for an unreasonable dollar amount. still not corrected and i understand that the abs system is not working. have checked other owners and they have the same problem. also have a cruise control system that is not working. have been told that i need a new harness for a cost of over #300. still not activated. *tr
