 The transmission went at 27,000 miles, 
had to be totally rebuilt, was without 
car for 4 days with no loaner. Tires 
were down to steel belt and had to be 
replaced at 27K at my own expense (not 
covered under warranty).  Shortly after 
purchasing the vehicle, my electric 
door locks and windows would not 
function, the handle on the back (inner 
deck of wagon) fell off (screws were 
missing, never put on in factory I was 
told), but again had to be without 
transportation while being fixed.  I 
purchased this Ford because I thought 
at the time Ford built a quality 
car...and I would have reliable 
transportaion, I was sadly mistaken.
