      <description>My low beam heads both stopped working at the same time. Upon investigation I identified the problem came from corrosion of the relay in the battery junction box.  This problem exactly matches a Ford recall for some 2013 Ford fiesta manufactured in Canada. My vehicle is not covered by this recall, but the problem and failure point is identical.  The text of that recall is as follows: &quot;Safety recal</description>

      <description>This is the 2nd email I sent and haven't gotten any response yet. My rear view camera is getting worse and distorted. Very hard to see out of it, especially at night. I have my grandchild in my car on a daily. I can't even sell this car because the recall is on the Car Fax Report. Who is going to buy a car that has an outstanding recall, especially finding out the parts to fix it are unavailable? </description>

Went immediately to a shop, when I arrived into the shop, inspection found that the caliper was locked onto the wheel preventing the front wheel from moving. Had the caliper replaced but the caliper was still seizing, and then had to get the ABS </description>
