    So i thought i had a simple thermostat issue. Went to change the thermostat and noticed the manifold housing (plastic) had a nice crack in it. When doing research on this, i noticed there have been numerous complaints/instances of this happening to other people. Now i am in the process of finding a new intake manifold and will have to pay to have it installed. This seems to be an issue that the department of…

I had to replace the entire fuel neck to fix the…

    I have written to ford concerning a fuel leak on my 2000 mustang. I was advised to take it to my dealer to diagnose the problem. The service technician informed me that the fuel filler neck was rusted out and had a hole in it due to the placement of a shield on the tube. The shield held in dirt and water which allowed it to rust. It will cost approximately $431.35 to repair. This problem was caused by a design flaw…
