Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This is regard to a 1996 ford mustang gt coup with a 4.6l with the now known faulty plastic intake manifold. i am the second owner of this car, it was purchased from car max in early 2000. so far the repair cost is just $1,000. i am aware of the just finished class action lawsuit but my case was not included due to it being outside the 7 year window. the car was serviced at ford dealerships well with in the 7 years but they never said a word. i feel this is unfair practices by ford and their affiliated dealerships. i want to make you and everyone else aware that i am prepared to join any subsequent litigation to help cover the many, many other intakes that were not handled in this class action suit. i am asking you to please encourage ford to make good on the right thing to do. *jb
