Cougar

  • Automatic transmission
  • 71,000 miles
The dealership didn't follow the proper procedure/specification when performing the fuel delivery module recall 04N02, because of this the rusted fuel tank straps went un noticed. The consumer noticed the straps dragging while driving which could of resulted in a fire.
