IF THIS WAS RECALLED ON OTHER VEHICLES (SAME MODEL YEAR) WHY DID FORD LEAVE OUT THE MUSTANG? I HAVE SPOKEN WITH OWNERS OF 195 WINDSTAR WHO TOLD ME THAT THE SAME PROBLEM WAS FIXED FOR FREE ON THEIR VEHICLES. THIS SHOWS THAT FORD ADMITS A DEFECT, YET THEY FAIL TO INCLUDE MUSTANGS IN THIS GROUP. THE 3.8 LITER ENGINE IS THE SAME FOR ALL FORD VEHICLES. WHEN THEY HAD THE HOOD SEPARATION PROBLEM ON WINDSTAR, THEY ALSO RECALLED MUSTANGS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY SHOULD ALSO RECALL THE MUSTANG FOR INFERIOR MATERIALS USED FOR THE FRONT COVER GASKET. IF THIS PROBLEM IS NOT TAKEN CARE OF, I CAN LEAD TO LARGER PROBLEMS. WITH THIS ECONOMY, MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE AN EXTRA $600 DOLLARS LAYING AROUND. URGE FORD TO INCLUDE MUSTANGS IN THIS GROUP.*AK

#731034 | September 18, 2000

BAUGHT CAR IN AUGUST OF 2000, DROVE IT ONE WEEK AND IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP NUMEROUS TIMES FOR VARIOUS ITEMS FIXED; IE; OVERHEATED TWICE THEN BLEW HEADGASKET, DRIVERS REAR ROTOR CAUGHT ON FIRE, RECALL ON HOOD WHICH WAS SEPARATING, MAJOR FUEL LEAK, FUEL HOSE BY FUEL TANK, WATER LEAK FROM TIMING COVER GASKET

#725907 | August 22, 2000

THE ENTIRE TOP OF THE HOOD SEPARATED AND FLEW OFF OF THE CAR AND LANDED ON THE GROUND AND WAS RUN OVER BY THE CAR BEHIND. THE HOOD SEEMS TO BE MADE OF 2 PIECES SANDWICHED TOGETHER. THE TOP HALF OF THE ENTIRE HOOD COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE BOTTOM HALF. THIS WAS A SAFETY RECALL ITEM AND FORD CLAIMS IT HAD BEEN REPAIRED. THE DEALER THAT DID THE REPAIR IN 1998 HAS CHANGED COMPUTER SYSTEMS AND SAID THEY DONT HAVE A DETAILED RECORD OF REPAIR. DEALER AND FORD BOTH CLAIM THAT REPAIR WAS WARRANTED FOR ONLY 12 MONTHS. IT SEEMS THE REPAIR WASNT SUFFICIENT. I THINK WE SHOULD EXPECT OUR AUTOMOBILES NOT TO FLY APART AND BECOME MISSLES THAT MAY INJURE OR KILL PEOPLE. FORD ADVISED ME TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER . I AM TAKING IT TO FREEHOLD FORD IN FREEHOLD, NJ 732-462-3131. *AK

#722419 | May 19, 2000

I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR OTHER FORD MODELS BUILT THE SAME YEAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEM MY CAR HAD. FORD MUSTANG OWNERS ARE HAVING PROBLEMS AS WELL--IN FACT, THIS IS THE SECOND MAJOR PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH MY VEHICLE (IT WAS RECALLED DUE TO A FAULTY HOOD), AND THIS REPAIR COST ME $1919.51. PLEASE HELP!*AK

#780964 | March 25, 1999

HOOD LATCH POPPED OFF PRIOR TO RECALL, RECALL REPAIRS COMPLETED.
