My car has had 4 transmissions before 40,000 miles and now at 102,000 miles I'm having to put a new motor in. This car has had excellent care and maintence and no reason for this. I was driving the car down the highway and loud noice started so I stopped and had it towed Ford said it was the motor was no good know. This car had no problems with the motor till then.

I am experiencing stalling problems when I stop at lights or the vehicle is idling. It looses compression. I had it into the dealership while still under warranty around 35,000 miles..now at 47,000 miles I'm experiencing the same problem. Originally they replaced wiring harness and air intake valve so far problem has yet to be determined as to why it's stalling again.
