Well two months ago my transmission freezes up. I get it replaced. (local good mechanic). When I get my car back I have a flashing "check engine light" and my cruise control works for only about 10 minutes then quits.
The local Ford shop says that the flashing light is a Traction Control Module and cannot be turnned off, it has to be replaced in order to STOP the blinking. And that the Cruise Control must be "tied" into the module somehow.
Well the module is $700!!!!!!
When I dropped off my car there was NO flashing light to indicate a Tracation Control issue AND my cruise worked perfectly.
The shop claims that transmission is NOT tied into the traction control. I pick my car up from Ford "royally p*ssed off" because I'm NOT paying $700 for module that WORKED when I dropped off the car.
The mechanic had accidentally cut into a harness and had to have the car an extra 2 days, but claims that none of the wires were tied to the traction control.
I drop off my car to have the transmission replaced. They replace it and it works fine....BUT now I have a $700 flashing light that wont go off and NO cruise!!!
What do I do and what grounds do I have to stand on? My traction control DOES work, but the flashing light will NOT go off until the $700 module is replaced.
