I have something going on either IN the car cabin, OR coming from the undercarriage exhaust system. Since I had the OBD emissions testing done, I have been experiencing dizziness, wobbly walk, blurry vision, and dulled thinking. Right on that same day, a terrible odor was emitted from somewhere, which really caused symptoms in me. The guy just used the OBD port to do the testing, with no tailpipe or underhood involvement. I had the exhaust system checked right when this started, and all was intact, per the Muffler specialized shop.
I went to the ED, had blood CO testing, which was negative. The odor went away inside the car, but still felt dizzy, etc. had underneath exhaust system checked again, by dealer, along with the OBD port - I was told nothing was wrong again. There is still no odor, but experienced the same troubles physically. And mentally, as I now worry whether to dispose ownership of this car, and who knows what the next step will be, but this if continues, un-diagnosable, funds that I did not plan on using will have to be depleted yet AGAIN. All this after spending $1500.+ on the ABS crazy part replacement a month ago.
I see that Ford 150 trucks and suvs have this major problem, so much so that a RECALL has been put in place by Ford itself. I am still trying to get Ford and NHTSA to recognize the exact similarity of the malfunctions in the Fiesta model I own. They have with the Mercurys, Fusions, etc. with their Soft Brake defects, along with the above exhaust inner cabin trouble, which cause unsafe and health hazard conditions.
