I have a 2005 Ford Taurus/60,000 miles and they just told me my intake manifold is cracked. I don't understand how Ford would put a bad manifold on a almost new car. I am just upset that Ford would put a plastic manifold where it can be cracked so quick and unsafe. The dealer went ahead and repaired the manifold but what is the assurance that the manifold will not crack again. My warranty has expired so I had to pay out of my pocket. This item should be recalled to ensure the safety of your customers.
