- The problem
- On certain sport utility vehicles and pickup trucks, the speed control deactivation switch may overheat, smoke, or burn.
- The risk

- The fix
- As an interim repair, owners will be instructed to return their vehicles to their dealers to have the speed control deactivation switch disconnected. As soon as replacement parts are available (early april 2005), owners will be instructed to return to the dealers for installation of a new switch free of charge. Owners may contact ford at 1-800-392-3673. (Note: also see recalls 05v388 and 06v286)
