Fuel Injection Problems of Ford Crown Victoria

How many complaints are required before a recall is issued, forcing a manufacturer to make repairs for a manufacturer to make repairs for a manufacturing defect ? on your site, there are 24 complaints about the same coolant leaking problem with the plastic intake manifold on Ford's 4. 6l engines. Why was the action already taken only applied to police vehicles ? I'm sure the leak is the same problem we all have had. Mine is number 25 and these are only the owners who have taken the time to pursue the issue with NHTSA. My cost for the part alone is $650. 00. Since this is an obvious manufacturing defect and Ford has changed the design of the replacement part, I feel the manufacturer should be required to repair it for free.

This is apparently a widespread problem on 1996 and newer crown vics, t-birds, mustangs and lincolns. Ford knows there is a design problem, but refuses to bear the cost. . Read more...

The inner fender protection is completely inadequate, allowing road salt to completely cover the entire engine and wiring. The suspension, master cyclinder, fuel injection, and other parts are coated completely. This could cause deteriorationg and failure of the engine possibly leading to an accident. This has been reported to Ford, acknowledging that this is happening, but refusing to fix the situation. They stated if something happens my compliant is on file for future reference. In the 5,000 miles I've put on the car I have washed the engine compartment down 4 times to prevent corrosion or failure. Your help in this matter would be appreciated and could prevent an accident due to a mechanical failure in the future.

Problem involves NHTSA recalls 98i001000 and 98v322000. Dealer and Ford say my car does not have these problems. I do not want to take the chance of having my steering control fail, or having my brakes fail. Please help. Also, the transmission has an extremely long shift from first to second. Ford has a TSB on this, and states this will not affect the transmission,but it will shorten the life and lead to possbile accumulator bore scuffing. Thanks!.

Engine idle high.
