Mustang 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 71,000 miles
I have a 1996 Ford Mustang LX. I was driving my car at night and I had it on cruise control and it blew up.I took care of my car and checked the engine and the antifreeze before I leave my house.I gave my car a 15 minute warm up period before I leave my house.the engine overheated and blew up due to faulty engine gasket. I have had to change the starter, the water pump(2X), radiator, and pistons because of that. I am very mad at Ford and I told them so in dearborn mi. I will not buy a Ford in the future and I tell everyone that asks me about my bad experience w/ this car and I tell them to not buy Ford cars or trucks. Thank you for reading this.
