Consumer Description

HEAD GASKET BLOWN AT 72,000 MILES. THERE IS NO RECALL OR TSB ON THIS PROBLEM, YET IN CHECKING NHTSA COMPLAINT SECTION THERE APPEARS TO BE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. OF COURSE THESE ARE ONLY THOSE PEOPLE THAT TOOK THE TIME TO FILE A COMPLAINT. MY LOCAL DEALER, JORDAN FORD IN MISHAWAKA, IN, SAYS THAT HE WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND REFUSED TO GIVE ME A NUMBER FOR FORD THAT I COULD CALL TO REGISTER MY COMPLAINT. *AK
