The contact owns a 2000 Ford Windstar. Upon starting the vehicle, the contact heard a clicking noise from the center of the instrument panel. After a few minutes, the clicking noise stopped. Prior to the failure, the contact stated that the same clicking noise was present when she operated the temperature gauge on the air conditioning unit. The vehicle was taken to a local repair shop where the contact was informed that the motor for the air conditioning unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact also stated that while driving at any speed, the vehicle would bounce and she could feel vibrations. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired. The vehicle also stalled intermittently. The idle air control was repaired by a local mechanic. The current and failure mileages were 115,432.

ABS light would come on and stay on minutes after getting into car. Approx 6mo. To a year the cruise control went out. Now the speedometer quit working and the odometer went out. The air cond blows but no cold air. Looked on the internet for solutions and found that alot of people were having the same problem. Some incidents the brake fluid was dripping down and causing a fire. Hopefully there will be a recall. I will probably try to get the ABS sensor on the master cylinder replaced.

The consumer stated 2000 Ford Windstar was having multiple problems. The fuses blew out, the lights were blinking on and off, and the odometer/speedometer werenot working. The mechanic that looked at the car suggested that it may be an electrical problem. While driving the lights wereblinking on and off. Consistently, kept the dashboard not illuminated. They have even tried to leave the air off to see if this would help the fuses not to blow out. There were lights on the dashboard that when lit up wthe fuse blew out.. the ABS light came on when the fuse blew out. The rear defroster didn't work nor did the rear air vents. This was not a safety condition for the owner to be traveling with child who has major health issues. The owner has not taken the van to the dealership because she could not afford the cost of labor and service charges. The owner has had a small problem contacting the Ford manufacturer, but that was now resolved. She was planning on contacting them today. The driver's side door will not lock or unlock with the remote. The cruise control was not working.
