Consumer Description

FAILURE OF HEAD GASKETS AT 43,900. FORD HAS RECALLED 4.3 ENGINES IN 1994 AND NEWER VEHICLES UP TO 100,000 MILES ON SEERVICE PROGRAM #98MO1, BUT THEY WILL ONLY OFFER ME A $1,000 CERTIFICATE TOWARDS A NEW CAR FOR THIS FAILURE. THEY HAVE ADMITTED THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WWITH THIS ENGINE BUT THEY REFUSE TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE WITH THIS LOW MILEAGE. WOLTZ AND WIND HAS OFFERED TO REPAIR MY CAR FOR $1700! I HAVE EXPERIENCED ENGINE STALLING IN HOT WEATHER WHILE ON VACATION IN SOUTH CAROLINA THE LAST TWO YEARS. I JUST READ IN THE PAPER ABOUT THE CALIFORNIA LAWSUIT CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. I WOULD APRECIATE ANY RESPONSE REGARDING MY PROBLEM. THANK YOU.*AK
