First problem: Car door indicator light will not go off even when the doors or tightly shut. Second problem: Left turning signal light blinks very fast and the right signal light blinks regularly. Third problem: Passenger selt belt keeps getting stuck even after pressing the red button to release. Fourth problem: The squeaking and shaking vibration when driving a speed of 50 or more mph and you begin pressing the brakes is when the sounds and the vibrations begins. Fifth problem: The service light came on and I had it check to the Ford place they stated it was a defect in a box the sits on top of the engine ( I want to say it holds the computer chip) is going bad. At that particular time I did not ask them to do a recall list for me. I really need any information you can give me on this vehicle.

They replaced the manifold and then the radiator malfunctioned, 18.000 miles later the heater core failed, was replaced in the last 6 months since Aug 4 times. Ford does not have a clue and the dealer is trying to fix it each time at leaks.the brakes/rotors have been a cronic problem since the car was new. The calipers have been resurfaced 3 times and finally replaced.

1. plastic intake manifold failure - covered by general recall 97M91, although similar plastic engineering is applied to both valve covers but is not is not covered by recall. The Ford service rep informed me that the heater core will blow soon too. 2. the brakes/rotors have been a chronic problem - this is my 2nd Thunderbird - both cars had the same type problems. I have replaced rotors, brake pads repeatedly without solving the problem. The car has severe front end vibration which is makes the car unenjoyable and dangerous. I have changed tire sizes and brands 4 times. The consumer reports research that I have done on this car causes me to be afraid of it. 3. the cruise control defect was also dangerouts, but it was repaired satisfactory.

Repeated replacement of front disk pads and rotors, and failure to check back brakes which cost me $361 to have repaired. Also, constant leaks in the air conditioning system that they can't seem to fix.

Had to replace tires twice due to the car causing a tire separation on the front, right side. I've again, replaced the tires 5000 miles ago and they are severely feathered to the point where it is visible to the eye. The car is with-in the alignment specs but it still pulls to the right - the faster the speed, the harder the pull. Have had 4 or more front end brake jobs (rotors & pads) in under 40,000 miles. The steering wheel shakes at 40 mph and the tires have been balanced. This has been a problem ever since I bought the car and the dealer can't find anything wrong.( dot number: Tire size: P215/70R15 )
