Engine failure due to failed cam shaft bearing. Head gasket had been replaced 6 month prior due to leakage. Ford dealership making repair could not obtain the cam shart replacement kit because "demand had exceeded expectations". we had to buy a short block. Other problems: Brakes pumping - need new rotors several months after getting new pads. Another problem - interior lights that will not go off have required repair two time.

Transmissions has been always a problem. When the vehicle was new it was taken several times to the dealer that after it is placed on park, thethere is a play of about 3 -4 inches and the vehicle moves forward by 3 - 4 inches. Was told that is the design of this type of transmission from Ford. Was not satisfied at all. All along problems with this transmission. Finally it gave way at 49, 000 miles. Had a rebuilt installed and that too gave way at 61K. Now a blown head gasket at 65K. Other numerous electrical problems to list. Ford is ripping off consumers.
