Cruise control fire. No warning. No recall notice. I purchased this 1993 grand marquis in 1997 from an authorized lincoln mercury dealership in longwood fl. I financed it through ford credit. I lived in the same house from 1991 to 2005. I was never notified of a problem. Car was destroyed. Extensive home damage. Injury from smoke inhalation. Lost family pet. Extensive business loss. Life permanently altered. Still suffering from effects of loss.

Driving on the NYS Thruway with Cruise Control on and it dropped out. I tried to reengage several times and it would not engage. On the way home I tried it again it kicked on and kicked off right away and since this incident I've had no cruise control. I researched recalls and see there are 3 1999 Recall 99V124000, Electrical System. 2007 Recall07V336000 Vehicle Speed Control. 2008 Recall 08V051000 Speed Control Recall. I spoke with Ford and they suggested I spoke with the Ford they said to contact NHTSA.
