“I noticed this problem myself with 2 ford motor co vehicles I own and one my father owns. The 2001 excursion I own is being recalled for the same problem - the intermittent wiper motor function either shuts the wiper blade action down or the blades do not park. The other vehicles affected are the one described in this report (1992 Mercury Grand Marquis), a 1990 lincon mkvii, and a 1995 lincoln town car.”
NHTSA complaint #752349, filed 2001-09“Have had the transmission worked on 3 different times. The third time they put in a new transmission. Which I had to pay for. The paint is peeling off and leaving big bare spots. I have had my right back door worked on several times because the locks wouldn't open and the windows would not roll down right now my right rear window and my left front window will not roll down!!! My car hesitates and jumps when I am going about 20-40 miles per hour, and when I hit 50-60 MPH my steering wheel starts to vibrate. My brakes squeak but we don't see nothing wrong. …”
