ELECTRICAL PROBLEM IN DASH CAUSED A BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM. FORD DEALER HAD TO PULL OUT DASH TO CORRECT PROBLEM. CAR HAD A PREVIOUS RECALL IN WHICH THE DASH HAD TO BE PULLED OUT ALSO. WE BELIEVE THE WIRE REPAIR IN THE DASH WAS A RESULT OF THE PREVIOUS DASH ELECTRICAL RECALL. FORD SAYS NO. AT ONLY 59,400 MILES THE TRANS NEEDS REPLACING. FORD HAS A DEALER SERVICE BULLETIN THAT STATES FAILURE OF TRANSMISSIONS CAN BE DUE TO A CRACKED OR BROKEN FORWARD CLUTCH PISION. FORD SAYS NO. BLOWN HEAD GASKET AT 87, 300 MILES CAUSES ENGINE TO HAVE TO BE REPLACED. WE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER IN MARCH AND RECEIVED $3200 FOR REIMBURSEMENT. AT 89,000 MILES DURING FEBRUARY OF 2000, THE SECOND TRANSMISSION GOES OUT AND THE MECHANIC STATES THAT THE OVERHEATING OF THE ENGINE HEAD GASKET PROBLEM CAN AFFECT THE TRANSMISSION. DURING A TEST DRIVE OF THE THIRD TRANSMISSION,...

ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO FAILED CAM SHAFT BEARING. HEAD GASKET HAD BEEN REPLACED 6 MONTH PRIOR DUE TO LEAKAGE. FORD DEALERSHIP MAKING REPAIR COULD NOT OBTAIN THE CAM SHART REPLACEMENT KIT BECAUSE "DEMAND HAD EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS". WE HAD TO BUY A SHORT BLOCK. OTHER PROBLEMS: BRAKES PUMPING - NEED NEW ROTORS SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER GETTING NEW PADS. ANOTHER PROBLEM - INTERIOR LIGHTS THAT WILL NOT GO OFF HAVE REQUIRED REPAIR TWO TIME.
INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRING SHORTED OUT, CAUSING FIRE INSIDE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION.
WHILE PARKED VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE UNDER THE DASHBOARD. *AK
