NHTSA Complaint #10361298 — 2003 FORD WINDSTAR

SIT DOWN, GET A COFFEE, BECAUSE YOU WILL BE READING A BOOK. I PURCHASED A 2003 FORD WINDSTAR, WITH 20,000 MILES, IN 2005. I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT MAJOR PROBLEMS. IN 12/2008 WITH 87,205 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WENT,THAT WAS 2013.00 , THEN IN 3-2009 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, HAD TO REPLACE GASKETS, THAT COST 500.00,. THEN IN 10/15/2010 I HAD TO BRING VAN IN FOR DIFFERENT SENSORS, AND ABS LIGHT, AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. THAT WAS . THAT WAS 232.00. THEN ON 10/19/2010 BROUGHT VAN IN TO THE FORD DEALER, BECAUSE NONE OF MY GAUGES WORK, LETTING ME KNOW HOW FAST I'M GOING, OR HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE. THEY SAY IT IS THE GAUGE CLUSTER, THAT'S 500.00 ALONE NOT INCLUDING LABOR, THEY INFORM ME I HAVE A HOLE IN THE LEFT REAR AXLE, AND I HAVE TO LEAVE THE VAN THERE, AND I MAY ALSO NEED A NEW ALTERNATOR, AND IT MAY TAKES WEEKS FOR THE PART TO COME IN. THAT'S NOT INCLUDING OTHER MINER REPAIRS ALONG THE WAY. THE BEST PART OF ALL. I STILL HAVE 6 PAYMENTS LEFT. WHAT RIGHTS DO I HAVE? I CAN'T BELIEVE ALL THE MAJOR ISSUES. THEY SHOULD TAKE THIS VAN, AND GIVE ME A DIFFERENT ONE. NOT A FORD. I TOLD YOU, THAT YOU WERE READING A BOOK. *TR
