Consumer Description

THE FIRST HEAD GASKETS BLEW AT 40,000 MILES AND WERE REPLACED AT MY COST, AND NOW, AGAIN, AT 80,000 MILES HEAD GASKETS ARE GOING BAD. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE IT'S PURCHASE, ALTHOUGH THIS HAS BEEN THE MOST FRUSTRATING AND COSTLY. THERE IS DEFINATELY A PROBLEM HERE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY FORD. THEY HAVE, THUS FAR, TURNED A DEAF EAR TO THE PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *AK
