What owners wrote
Vehicle equipped with myford touch system. System controls heating/defrosting system. This system has failed to operate properly on multiple occasions. Ford motor company is aware of issue and has not corrected it. Ford should not be allowed to market vehicles that do not have properly functioning heating/defrosting controls. These vehicles are dangerous and the issue is well know by internet searches. People rely on vehicles to operate properly in winter conditions. This needs to be addressed.
