Despite the 11 year age of my vehicle, this vehicle has been maintained exceptionally. Talking with friends and cohorts in the automobile field, no one seems to believe that such a freak thing could have happened. This is not a frigging race motor nor do I drive it like one!! I'm extremely disgruntled with Ford Motor Company's response: FULL DENIAL OF THE PROBLEM AND ZERO RECOURSE!! Of course they highly recommended that I send it to one of their fine dealerships for proper diagnosis and repair!! Very Frustrating...
