1995 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

ALL OF THE FRONT WHEEL DRIVES ARE SUPPOSEDLY BEING RECALLED WITH THE SAME ENGINE DEFECT (BAD HEAD GASKETS) WHY NOT MINE. JUST BECAUSE IT'S A REAR WHEEL DRIVE. I HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THIS REPAIR AT A DEALER AND I'M LOOKING FOR COMPENSATION FOR THE REPAIR..

ENGINE HEAD GASKETS BLEW OUT, CAUSING COOLANT TO ENTER ENGINE BLOCK WHERE OIL IS LOCATED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED. OWNER BELIEVES THAT THE 3.8 LTR MOTOR SHOULD BE RECALLED ON ALL PRODUCTS, INCLUDING THIS ONE. *AK *ML

SINCE HEAD GASKET HAS BLOWN, ENTIRE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, PER FOR THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY. *AK

VEHICLE EXPERIENCING PROBLEM WITH OVERHEATING AND SMOKE COMING FROM TAIL PIPE. VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. MECHANIC INFORMED CONSUMER OF A BLOWN ENGINE HEAD GASKET. MANUFACTURER NOTIFED ,AND INFORMED CONSUMER THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT COVER UNDER FORD'S EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM. *AK

HEARING INCREASING NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. NO SAFETY DEFECT LISTED IN SUMMARY. *AK

BOTH CYLINDER HEADS REMOVED BY MECHANIC TO REPLACE GASKET AND FOUND #3 CYLINDER TO BE BLOWN. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS AT 70,000 MILES - IT IS OBVIUOSLY A DETECT IN DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A FORD RECALL, BUT THE 1995 MUSTANG IS EXCLUDED!

1995 FORD MUSTANG-3.8LITER BLOWN HEAD GASKET- CONTACTED FORD-SAID NOT THEIR PROBLEM. CONTACTED KRON.COM AND FORD ANNOUNCED RECALLS ON 700,000 VEHICLES FOR 1994 AND 1995 WITH 3.8 LITER ENGINES. ONLY LISTED LIMITED SALES CARS/VANS-WINDSTAR,TAURUS. MY PROBLEM IS I HAVE THE SAME ENGINE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT FORD DENIES INCLUDING THE MUSTANG. IS THE REASON BECAUSE THEY SOLD TOO MANY MUSTANGS AND IT WOULD COST FORD TOO MUCH FOR THE REPAIRS?. THE HEAD GASKETS ARE FACTORY, AND FORD USES THEIR OWN PRODUCT ON ALL 3.8 LITER ENGINES. THE DEALERSHIP, LITHIA FORD IN NAPA, DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE RECALL. PLEASE CONTACT ME OR LEAVE MESSAGE 707-966-2605 OR 707-315-5930. *AK

AFTER 60K SERVICE I HAD MANY OVERHEATINGS, AND FINALLY HAD TO REPLACE THE HEAD GASKET COST ~ $1400. *AK

FORD SHOULD BE LIABLE THERE RECALL IS ON ALL 3.8L ENGINES FOR BLOWN HEAD GAS.BESIPEMINE. *AK

HEAD GASKETS FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME ENGINE AS THE 3.8 V6 FOUND IN THE WINDSTAR AND THE TAURUS. FORD HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THESE TWO VEHICLES TO COVER THE REPAIRS HOWEVER, THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING FOR THE MUSTANG. *AK
