What owners wrote
While driving on the freeway at 65 MPH hood flew up and blocked consumer's view. Consumer managed to get the car to the side without causing an accident.
The power door lock on the driver's of my 2000 windstar will not operate. It gets stuck in the locked position and will not unlock with the remote key fob. The ford dealership suggests replacing the accuator at a cost of $250. This has been non-functional since late 2003.
