NHTSA complaint #10163012, filed 2006-07, 244,000 miles“Received recall 1993 E-350 econoline 08s01 made appointment every Ford fayette, al. Left it over night to be worked on the next day. Called 4:30pm before closing to see if it was done. Told they would call me back it was next then they called and said they didn't have a part & didn't know when one would be available. We wasted 8 gallons of gas and the recall part is still not been replaced. They claim no one has the part for the econoline. I called the 1-800 number in the letter but it is only a voice mail box and it directs to make the call over again.”
