Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 1994 ford mustang, purchased new and with only 39,000 miles at the time of failure, blew a head gasket. the car has the same 3.8l v6 as the windstar and taurus vehicles that i understand have been recalled for the exact same problem. why no recall on the mustang? this has cost me $2000.00 since the vehicle is out of the 'extended' warranty ford offered to address this very problem. please note that the vehicle failed at 39,000 miles, well within the 100,000 miles ford offered but outside the arbitrary 7 year limit.
