Engine has expereinced a clatter on startup for some time. Was taken to dealer under warrnaty one year ago @ 27000 miles. Told this noise was "normal". noise has increased. Now dealer reports it is "a major lower -end problem. Ford won't do anything because vehicle is out of basic warranty. I say 1) nothing was done when it wsas under warranty. Work should have been correctly diagnosed and fixed then 2) the problem I am experiencing is the result of a manufacturing defect. Ford acknowledges that this problem shoudl not show up at this low a mileage. They amde an defective product--they shoudl fix it!

- Newhall, CA, USA

The engine always made a lot of noise during initial startup. Contacted several dealers during the warranty period who declared this as "normal". now that the vehicle is out of standard warranty, the local dealer says there is "major lower end problems" that can only be estimated by an engine tear down. Ford refuses to do anything in spite of a) this being reported during the warranty period and the dealers not doing anything and B) this problem not normal for avehicle with these few miles. A engine should last several times this long with normal maintenance.
