On april 17, 2003, my 1994 mercury grand marquee, which we had purchased about 8 months previous, started on fire in my attached garage and then broke the gas line to the water heater. The fire broke out at 2 am and the car had been sitting in the garage since 5:30 pm the evening before. My address at that time was 1345 sue barnett houston tx 77018. The home was completely destroyed and our cat died in the fire.
Consumer took the vehicle to be examined because of hearing of the recent news reports of the ford vehicles that are prone to gas tank rupture and subsequent fire and explosion in high impact collisions. Consumers vehicle was found to have the same defects as the police vehicles. Ford has issued a technical service bulletin to deal with the problem, but has not recalled any of the civilian vehicles. Consumer would like ford to reimburse the monies paid for the examination.
