While driving the car slowly died first the radio shut off then the wipers stopped, lights shut off then the car stopped completely in the middle of the road this has now happened on about 8 different occasions while I had my 2 small children in the car. I have taken it to a Ford dealership and had over $1,200 put into it in the last year and the problem was never fixed. The mechanic at Ford told me if I wanted the car to be safe I'd be better off getting a new car. I have since found out the car had been wrecked before I purchased it but I was never told that by the dearlership where I purchased it. On several occasions my car has been sitting in the drive way without running and the keys were not in the ignition and the four ways will start flashing as well as it happens as I am driving down the road. Ford told me the last time it was there to be fixed that the steering column was collapsed but when I had another mechanic go to change the steering column he found that it wasn't collapsed and that Ford had left out 5 bolts that held it in and it was only in there with 2 bolts which were not tightened and could be turned by hand which was causing the column to able to be pulled out towards the driver by about 3 inches and then pushed back into place.
