Consumer Description

MY 1993 TAURUS HAD A BLOWN HEAD GASKET AT 60000 MILES. FORD HAS RECALLED ALL 1994-1995 VEHICLES AND REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. WHY HAVEN'T THE 93 MODELS ALSO BEEN RECALLED & REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE? THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTERERS DEFECT AND ALL 3.8L ENGINES SHOULD BE FIXED. THEY ALSO GAVE THESE VEHICLES 7 YEAR, 100,000 MILE WARRANTY EXTENSIONS. ONCE AGAIN, WHY NOT THE 93 MODELS TOO?????? I'VE CHECKED ON VARIOUS MESSAGE BOARDS & THERE SEEMS TO BE SUBSTANIAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON THE 93'S. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU COULD GIVE ME WITH THIS PROBLEM. THANKS JOHN. *AK
