We were beginning to experience loss of power. The fuel pump and filter was changed. We are still getting intermittent loss of power, but what my concern is that I saw a recall on the federal safety agency: 99v028000. I was made aware of this recall when I viewed an episode of cops where an aerostar's electrical system caused a fire in the engine compartment. I called ford in temecula calif and now they have no record of any recalls for this year of aerostar 1994 I do have kids and I would like to know what safety matters remain on this van.

What owners say
The accessories in my dash and steering column are shorting out, and I saw that there was a recall on that. The problem is that the recall does not include when my van was made. I don't care why I just want to be able to drive my kids to school and back and not have my van catch on fire. We have been through that already with a different vehicle. Also, the fuel pump is acting up andi was told it seems as though it is shorting out!. Again not the right month but I have the same problems so the way I see it is that ford messed up and should fix the problem, period. I plan to continue to follow this and to right to my local government. The safety of my family should not be determined as to how loudly people complain, it seems as though the vehicles that are covered were the greatest risk to the company.
Vhehicle caught fire near center of motor behind where you put in the oil. Vehicle was taken to local ford dealer for recall on the accessory power circuit. I received a letter in the mail about the switch recall. The 94-95 models where also recalled due an electrical short out at fuel pump resulting in power loss and fire. I belive this to be what happened to my van.I was not notified of this recall, niether was I informed of it whan I took the van in for the other recall on the switch. Can you tell me what to do from here? Should I go to the local ford dealer?
Airbag light flashes, ther is a pattern, it comes on intermittently. Also, fuel pump was replaced by the dealership.
Also brought in to dealer for recall 99s on fuel pump wiring harness and no parts available
Smell of gas fume from inside the vehicle gradually became worse and intolerable. Dealer corrected problem by replacing the fuel pump gasket.
Fuel pump failed/shorted out, resulting in a fire.
The fuel pump mounted in the top of the gas tank had failed, shorting out with no apparent fusable link of break. Heat from the melting electrical parts weakened a fuel line, causing it to burst and the exposed wires started the fire.
Consumer was driving and the fuel pump stop working . Tt
