THE RECALL (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #96V172001) IS NOT BEING HONORED BY THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE, ALTHOUGH THE MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR OF THE CAR IS THE SAME, THE VIN NUMBER DOES NOT APPEAR IN THE MANUFACTURER DATABASE ASSOCIATING IT WITH THE RECALL.

I DID NOT HEAR BACK FROM JESSY UNTIL LATE ON WEDNESDAY THE 18TH. AND ALL HE SAID WAS THAT HE WAS STILL CHECKING ON THE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE 1990 FORD PROBE AND WOULD GET BACK TO ME.

I HAVE HAD TO DISABLE THE COMPLETE SYSTEM (BOTH THE DEFECTIVE LEFT SIDE AND THE WORKING RIGHT SIDE) BECAUSE MY BATTERY WILL RUN DOWN BECAUSE OF THE SYSTEM'S ATTEMPT TO PARK THE DEFECTIVE BELT.
