engine failure

Engine lost a piston and rod at only 67000 miles. Have talked with Ford after being a customer for over 35 years and a family member of Ford all of my life and they dont even want to investigate the problem. Still owe $17000 on this piece of crap and they got their money and now might be out of mine. This engine should be covered for more than 60000 miles.
