Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Head gasket blew in my 1995 ford mustang and caused the car to overheat. this is the second occurrence following an occurrence in october of 2000 which lead to the car being serviced at cook-whitehead ford under an extended warranty by ford motor company. there are many other complaints about head gaskets with the ford 3.8l engines and repeats of head gasket problems that i have found on the internet and was also told by the ford representative on their customer service hotline. she has suggested that i pay attention and that from the number of complaints there may possibly be a safety recall issued. i believe that sub-standard parts were used to supposedly fix an already below standard part and that proper procedures were not completed when the car was originally serviced. *jb
