We have heard several comments from mechanics, friends and on the internet, that there have been a significant number of similar problems with the 1995 Ford Windstar. Our research indicates that the Windstar is susceptible to blow head gasket problems at between 40 and 60,000 miles. We were traveling on the highway when the problem occurred. Luckily we were not injured when the engine blew, but had we been driving on the interstate at 70 mph there could have been a fatality. We are very concerned about this issue and feel that it is a serious safety concern.
