“Air conditioning system experienced total failure. Mechanic said system is leaking from every conceivable place and replacement of the system was necessary for repair and the cost would be $2000. The mechanic recommended registering a complaint with Ford because this type of problem is ridiculous in a 4 year old car. The system has not been replaced to date.”

In spring/1996, transmission was vibrating on inclines at 25 to 30 MPH. In spring/summer 1997, transmission was causing tactometer to race to 3000rpm when only going 25 MPH. In winter of 2000, vehicle overheated, replaced thermostat twice.
