so i was on all data today just getting the part number for my low speed fan relay because it doesnt come on, ive been running with the a/c on to keep it from overheating.
then i found a recall for 98 contour/mystiques explaining how the low speed fan motor cuts out and fails, and that it calls for a reflash of the pcm to compensate. so i printed it out and went striaght to the ford dealer afterschool.
the i gave the advisor the copy and my vin and told him i had the exact same problem that it described....then....
he said that my vehicle didnt fall in the "affected vehicle list" because my car was made in Chicago and the recall only calls for car made at the plant in Kentucky i believe which is a bunch of crap.
I dont understand why, i have the same syptoms but they wont touch it because my car was made somewhere else where the problem wasnt admitted.
Has only one else seen this recall and/or acted on it? and is there anything i can do to get it done to my vehicle?
i am going to get a new relay and that might just solve it but advanced/and autozone as well as 2 ford dealers (jack madden and Rodman) didnt have the dame relays in stock.... eh pisses me off!
