My intake manifold for my thermostat is completely broken when I looked up online to see how much the part would cost me to have fixed it said there was a recall on the part because in between the years 1997-2006 Ford used generic plastic to make the part I just purchased the car off a guy like 6 months ago so if there were any recalls on the vehicle I had no idea till it broke on me and I looked it up I called a few Ford dealerships and also the main Ford headquarters in detroit and everyone's giving me the run around and telling me there were never any recalls on my car and that I have to pay to have it fixed meanwhile its there fault for putting the wrong part in the car in the first place I need your help getting these people to fix my car please contact me at [xxx] or if I can't be reached on that number [xxx] thank you.

I own a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria with a V-8 (4.6 ) that has a plastic intake manifold which is cracked and leaking coolant. It is unrepairable and must be replaced. This plastic should have never been used and intake manifolds are not supposed to fail like this and they should all be recalled.

The check engine light had come on 4 times. The consumer stated that he had a gas cap replaced and it was not the problem because the check engine light had come on 3 times after-this was the first incident. The solenoid was taken off and had enlongated, sliced, parabolic cut/very small infraction-replaced solenoid assembly-canister vent and the hose assembly. The consumer requests the following: A refund of the cost of the gas cap, written explanation of the pebbles in the smog device, and a shield on the vehicle to prevent future problems at the dealers cost.
