 What an absolute nightmare.  The repair costs have exceeded the price i paid for this pile of crap.  I have had to replace the hub and bearings THREE times, had to fix air conditioning and now the heater core is not working due to a leak.  Oil pan, of all things, rusted out and was replaced.  Water pump was replaced.  Engine gaskets replaced. Transmission was replaced at 150km's.  The only thing that works all the time is the check engine light.  The wipers are work well, however they turn on randomly, making me look like a fool on clear and sunny days.  I am currently shopping for a new vehicle, but i will NEVER purchase a FORD again. I'd rather buy a horse or a bus pass.
