Consumer Description

I AM LOGGING THIS ISSUE TO REPORT A HEAD GASKET FAILURE ON MY FORD 3.8 V-6 ENGINE. ALTOUGHT NO ONE WAS HARNED, I DID EXPERIENCE THE ENGINE FAILURE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. I DID HAVE TO PULL OVER ON A POORLY LIT ROAD AT NIGHT WITH HEAVY TRAFFIC. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT. MY REAL COMPLAINT IS THAT I INCURRED A $3800 ENGINE REPAIR BILL FROM A PREMATURE FAILURE OF AN ENGINE COMPONENT AND FORD DOES NOT FEEL THEY SHOULD REIMBURSE ME OR 100'S OF OTHERS THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME PROBLEM. IS THERE ANY HELP YOUR AGENCY CAN PROVIDE IN THIS MATTER. CAN YOU REQUIRE FOR TO RECALL THIS ENGINE? PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU. *AK
