F-250 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 99,000 miles
I was driving along on rt 295 during a rain storm and my windshield wipers stopped working along with other electrical componets in my truck. I drive a 97 Ford F250 4X4 XLT. Luckily I was not injured. I took my truck to be fixed where I was told that I needed to replace my GEM module and fuse box. I thought that was odd. The mechanic said that the windshields on the model of my truck is known to leak and damage those componets. I could of got into a serious accident that day, resulting in death of me or other people on the road.
