I have contacted Ford motor company's customer service department as well as my local Ford dealer (charlie hillard Ford-fort worth). They both tell me that the head gasket on a 1995 Ford winstar has been recalled. This vehicle has virtually the same 3. 8l v6 engine as my 1996 Ford Mustang. My local Ford company tells me the only difference in the two engines is that one vehicle is front-wheel drive, and the other rear-wheel drive. The head gaskets should be manufactured the same on these two vehicles. However, Ford tells me they cannot help me pay for this repair - which was a failure of the head gasket. Additionally, my mechanic says he and other mechanics he knows have seen the same problem frequently on Ford Mustangs and Ford thunderbirds with this same 3. 8l v6 engine.

Our family has three 1996 Mustangs, one with a manual and two with automatic transmissions. We have had all three of them blow the head gasket on them, one at a year, one at three years, and one at four years.

I paid to replace three of them, and feel that the Ford dealer should have alerted me to the fact that they were under warranty, and therefore not charged me.

Vehicle would lose power at different times and speeds. Mass air sensor replaced, but the mechanic found that there was no gasket. Also, mechanic found that there was too much air where filter would be. Please describe details.
