Consumer Description

I OWN A 1995 MERCURY SABLE STATION WAGON. AT 69,000 MILES THE HEAD GASKET FAILED. FORD MOTOR COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGED THE DEFECTIVE PART IN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 98-4-9. FORD ISSUES A 5 YR/60,000 WARRANTY IN 1998 AND A 7 YR/100,000 MILE WARRANTY IN 2000. THE HEAD GASKETS ON MY VEHICLE DID NOT FAIL UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS 7 YEARS AND SEVEN MONTHS --WHICH WAS OVER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. THIS PART SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR SAFETY REASONS. IT IS UNFAIR TO MAKE THE PUBLIC PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE PART. NLM
