I FOUND A SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE, 91V-146 THE DEALER CLAMS NO RECORD OF RECALL, BUT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR 10 YEARS NOW. FORD SAYS RECALLS DONT EXPIRE, BUT SINCE NO RECORD DUE TO IT BEING A 1991 GARY YOEMANS FORD WILL NOT FIX. VEHICLE HAD 60,000 ORIGIONAL MILES ON IT DUE TO LACK OF DRIVABILITY FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. *AK
