Description of the problem | I have been extremely dissatisfied with the quality of my ford windstar. With the transmission repair i will have invested close to $4000 in the van. I have surprised and outraged by what i have found. I have searched the web and found hundreds of people that have had exactly the same problems. The ones that have called have gotten the same answer i have "sorry, we can't help that is not under warranty." i have found that i am not alone and i am hoping the government will step and make ford stand behind their product. Quality is job 1 what a crock! |
