Three problems related to engine head gasket leaking have been reported for the 1998 Ford Windstar. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
At 112,000 miles, my Ford Windstar has developed a head gasket leak internally which has resulted in extensive internal engine damage that now requires complete engine replacement. I have 2 professional repair shops diagnosis and both agree that it needs an engine replacement for the reasons stated above.
Head gaskets were leaking anti-freeze, had no heat under 30mph.
There was an engine head gasket leakage and the dealer fixed the leak. Also, the vehicle will shift from first gear into second gear, and from second to first while driving or sitting in traffic. The dealer can't detemine the problem, and the vehicle has been in the shop three times and they can't find the problem.
