On this date, the car began to overheat and I ended up having to incur the expense of not only having the car towed; but also of retrieving the car as the closest Ford dealership at the time was 5 hours away from my home. In this instance, the car was repaired under warranty and a code of TSB 20-2234. …”

“While driving at approx. 10 MPH through a parking lot, my vehicle ignition turned off for no explainable reason. Additionally, the instrument cluster went completely dark (no power).

I drove it home (1.5 miles) and turned it off. When I went to take it to the dealer the next morning, the vehicle started and operated normally. …”
