| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Engine and engine cooling system i bought a lot of new parts for this car to try and keep it cooled down everything there is to buy i was finely told by the shop that works on the car i should check with ford because if they did anymore work on my car it could become up in the thousands and that ford should be paying the bill or recall the whole car there is a lot of miles on my car but i take very good care of it and as many parts i buy and as many times that it has been in the shop almost everything on the car is new i have tried everything to make this car run good the reason the owner before me sold the car he was always fixing something on it with everything he done to the car i thought if i just did a little more it would run good but there's no way i replaced the intake manifold 2 times because of cracking i was told by ford they know there is a problem with the intake manifolds but they don't recall them anymore so second hand buyers are out of luck we just keep replacing that part while ford gets richer on a part they know will not work on that car i replaced the clutch a little over a year ago and again something 's wrong i had it checked and they found that all the bolts that hold the transmission in where all almost out i have had them put back in place 2 times and the same with starter only with the starter there was only one bolt left holding it the shop said they don't even know how it had been starting so i fixed that but worried about them all the time ford has been no help on any thing i called about but they say they know of the trouble people are having but sorry no one has put any recalls on these problems and that they will send me a letter if any recalls come out anything that cost ford to much never gets recalls only thing like hood latch seat belt those 2 things i have never had trouble with but they also don't pay much to have them fixed. *nm |
