November 1995 CrashInjury

The governor for the 90 MPH governor was recalled by the consumer agency responsible for recalls. The problem was that it was a potential fire hazard. I called upon ford several times over a period of years, as well as went by the ford shop and was told that it was not pertaining to my 1993 ford ranger. Not until after the truck broke and would not shift did ford pretend to fix the problem as a recall, but, also charged 1000 dollars.
