“2004 Ford wagon e350 with floor lowered by vantage mobility int. For handicap people. During stop and go driving like traffic jams while pulling a trailer the floor between front seats gets more than hot enough to burn your foot. Sliding door opener has broken 6 times leaving the door free to slide open and shut. I keep a bungy cord to tie it up but interior lights come on and off when using bungy cord. The original latch by Ford was removed to install the door opener. Split drive shaft installed to make room for under vehicle lift by braun corp has a low roar to it. …”
