Consumer Description

WE KNEW WE HAD A PROBLEM WHEN WE WERE COMING HOME ON THE FREEWAY AND THE INDICATOR ARROW SHOWED IT WAS OVER HEATING. WE TOOK IT IN TO THE SHOP AND THEY REPLACED THE RADIATOR CAP BECAUSE IT WASNT HOLDING PRESSURE. THAT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM A WEEK LATER WE TOOK IT BACK BECAUSE IT WAS LOSING POWER, BLOWING STEAM AND OVER HEATING AGAIN. IT TURNED OT TO BE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. UPON RECENT PERSONAL RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS WAS A RECALL ITEM/DEFECT. I HAVE ALSO FOUND THAT OTHER MAJOR SYMPTOMS WE ARE EXPERIENCING WITH OUR 95 WINDSTAR SUCH AS W/THE BRAKES,TRANSMISSION IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THEY GO ALSO. WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY FEEDBACK ON THIS PROBLEM THANK YOU, DAN HIGUERA
