What owners wrote
The arizona dept public safety & phoenix police dept are reporting high occurences of fires associated with rear-end collision of the crown victoria vehicles, an officer was killed when his vehicle was struck from behind and burst into flames, the officers vehicle was stopped for a traffic stop and the other vehicle was traveling in excess of 81 MPH at impact, authorities suspect fuel system related (no VIN given)
I am concerned about fuel tank fires started by rear end collisions. All research I have done states that ford is recalling police cars only. As a consumer I think ford owes it to the public to recall all ford crown victoria's. My family is more important then their bottom line. My wife and I do not feel safe driving our children around in this car. Ford needs to acknowledge they are putting out an unsafe product.
