Consumer Description

REAR PANEL UNDER WINDOW HAS RECENTLY CRACKED, THERE ARE NOW 2 VERTICAL CRACKS RUNNING DOWN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. ALSO, HITCH TO REAR DOOR DOESN'T STAY UP. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALSO HAD A NEW ENGINE PUT IT AND INJECTORS HAVE POPPED OUT ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. THIS IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE VEHICLE I HAVE EVER PURCHASED AND IT HAS GIVEN ME MORE PROBLEMS THAN I COULD EVER EXPECT IN A VEHICLE. FORD NEEDS TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS VEHICLE. WE HAVE OWNED SEVERAL FORD'S AND HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. IT IS A TRUE LEMON>>>> *TR
