As i proceeded to get over on a highway with cars speeding, my car would not allow me to move over because it would not accerlate to be safe and my car slowed down as if there was no power as I had to get to the side of the highway to avoid getting hit as cars were traveling at a high rate of speed. My car then stopped and I was forced to move into the grass to avoid getting hit and causing a wreck. The speed limit was 80 mph and I was traveling at 72 mph. As I try to increase my speed but the car seemed it did not have enough power. The next day I called to report it and take it to the shop, I was informed to not drive the car for my safety. The diagnosis was that one of the fuel lines stopped working and the control module was a recall. My niece and myself was put in danger as well as the emotional fear to drive the car. This occured on June on June the 20th and the car was picked up on June the 24th. It was a recall issue. I was told by Ford Corporation that because it was fixed and I was safe then the matter was closed. Next incident, I reported that my lights and radio keep going off and then dimmed. I was driving, and had no lights at certain times at night. As I passed a non-lited highway, I could not see the direction I was traveling. During a rain storm at night, I had it continued to dim then go dark then back on. This was also another recall. I was advise that it was fixed so I had recourse against the manfualted ford corporation. At 16,000 miles, the tires had no tread because the same tires have been recalled. This stopped my ability to drively safe and advoid stopping when needed. There were other issues, the car was taken in. There is a current recall that the is no remedy, that I could lose sterring and the wheel will cause a crash. I am one of the 30,000 mustang that are having safety problems and are in the risk of crashes. I am in fear of driving the car, was denied of a buy back insure that I am not in danger.
