Description of the problem	My 1995 ford windstar has been a nightmare since i bought it in sept of 1994. The first major transmission problem went at 6,500 miles and was fixed by warranty. The head gasket blew at 54,000 miles and 39 months of use. Ford initially said tough luck but then the secret warranties became known and they reimbursed me for that repair. At less than 100,000 miles on the chassis the coolant level started showing low again but the head gasket failure didn't become highly noticeable until 103,000 miles. Ford refused to repair this time as the vehicle was now over 100,000 miles although this "new" ford head gasket had less than 50,000 mile on it. So, i am preparing to sue ford and the local dealer on that repair. Finally, the transmission totally failed a few weeks ago and i had a "new" transmission put in. It lasted 1 week and the ford windstar is now getting another transmission (covered under the 2 year or 24,000 mile warranty of the replaced transmission). After reading about all the ford ?!@#$% regarding the 1995 ford windstar problems, why is that your agency has done so little in forcing a recall? Ford ought to be recalling those vehicles or offering the owners money to buy them back.*ak
