Ford and the dealership were not helpful at all. Ford tried to make me happy in the end with an additional warranty for 24 months or 24,000. But would not pay for repairs. To sorry to bad they said. This past year we had more problems, it was very very very stressful and expensive. We had to charge repairs and put some on heme equity. Think of the interest $. I was scared to drive. I have since sold van. I will still pursue this to get back $ and to tell others. No safety defect listed in summary.

Ford contacted me concerning their additional warranty coverage service program number 00M09 however it seems I am not eligible since their warranty coverage is only for 7 years or 100000 miles for this type of failture. It seems to me 100000 is rather arbitrary since I am less than one and a half percent beyond the mileage cutoff. No safety defect mentione din summary.
