Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 1998 ford mustang gtast year i noticed a cooling leakage which i first thought coming from one of the hoses. it turned out that the upper intake manifold cracked.hen i purchased a new upper intake manifold from a ford dealership, i noticed that they changed the design, enforcing the cracked part of the intake with aluminum. i was wondering if there is a design flaw, and they changed their design; am i entitled for any kind of compensation? i have asked many ford dealerships, but they informed me that there is no recall in regard to my intake manifold.ny information in regard to this is very much appreciated.*ak
