Anyone own a Ford? From 1992-2004, they are recalling.

Says Ford cannot be confident that the Speed Control Deactivation Switch will not leak, posing the risk of an underhood fire.

Terriffic!! Since we've owned our Ford four years now. Wonder why it takes them so long to figure out these recalls since they go back to 92.

We will bringing ours in next week. :grump: I hate the dealer we go to.

Is this all Fords or certain model? Hubby has a Ford Ranger pickup.

As far as I know its all Fords. We have an E-150 van.

If you have speed control on his truck, then he should be getting a notice.

It's Recall 05S28

From the recall I seen a while back it was only certain models in certain years. Hmm....I will try to find where I read that!

This link shows the recall to be rather old. I wonder if many of the vehicles in question have not already been fixed as they came through dealers used car lots?

We got a notice yesterday about the same issue. Ours is a 93 fullsize van with 230k on it. I'm not gonna worry about it. I figure if it made it this far it'll break down of something else far more serious long before that thing blows up! Besides the autopilot has long since quit working, so that little gizmo doesn't matter anyway. I'm more worried about blowouts and brakes and steering failures!

Its only certain models It takes about 10 minutes to fix it

I WOULD worry about it. We had a customers pickup that was a 92 model, with a gazillion miles on it, burn to the ground right in front of our shop because of this gizmo and it was only 6 mths or so ago!

Our '99 F-150 was recalled for this a year ago. Only took a few minutes to switch out the part.
