Have complained to dealer/Ford motor company foul odor when heat is running. Was told that I probably had a high sensitivity to allergies. Complained about having to replace breaks at 15,000 miles. Had to replace oil gasket pan twice within the same year. Dealership did not find this unusual. Car accelerates without warning sometimes. The motor is making a rushing noise. Was told that this was the normal sound of the motor although it did not start until six months down the road. Had to take car back to replace back/warped windshield after having it one day. Dealership will not even allow me to trade vehicle and does not acknowledge fact that too many things have gone wrong in too short a period of time. Purchased vehicle in 2002.

2nd Ford vehicle to have head gasket failure. First was my 1995 Ford windstar which I already reported to you. It was 1,000 miles over their extended 100,000 limit. This has caused serious financial difficulty to our family that may take a few years to catch up. Took Ford to small claims court last week and lost. This is a travesty to have this happening to families all over the country. I sincerely hope your organization can force them to pay reparations.

The frost plugs in the engine block failed catastrophically due to internal corrosion. This caused rapid loss of nearly all coolant from the engine. The loss of coolant caused the engine to overheat, the head gasket to fail, and the heads to crack. Within ninety seconds, the engine shut down and consumer was left without power.

Car is in shop having 2 cracked heads replaced. Mechanic was advised to keep all parts for further investigation. The Ford Taurus 3. 8 engine has an extended warranty because of head gasket failure. The Ford company told me that the 3. 0 engine was built in atlanta GA. And there were no recalls on it. The alldata service bulletin 97-24-16 issued 11-24-94 said to simply extrapolate the 3. 8l engine for the warranty extension on the 3. 0. We almost had a bad accident because the engine died with no warning on a busy freeway. If it is a ingition modular problem also I don't know at this time. I feel this veh engine should have lasted more than 91,334 miles. If Ford has a problem with the engine it should be acknowledged before anymore breakdowns occur.

With out warning the engine quit on the highway, the driver compartment filled with steam. I was able to stop the car on the side of the road but absolutely couldn't see. The dealer told me that the head gasket failed causing a failure of the heater core, and subsequently ruining the cylinder head.
