What owners wrote

Plastic intake manifold split open at front seam, spewed hot antifreeze all over engine compartment. I had to have vehicle towed to the dealer. Ford refused to replace part at no charge even though they are doing no charge replacements on ford crown victorias and some mustangs(police packages). The replacement part being installed on my vehicle is different part number from the one that split.

December 1999
