dealership that the total repair was now listed at approximately $5,400.00 Or more. We are shocked to say the least that our freestar that is barely 4years old and even have purchased the extended warranty up to 60,000miles or five years "whichever came first" as I was reminded by the repairshop representative, that this vehicle should need this type of repair at such an early stage in the vehicle's ownership. The cost made us suspect and we searched on line through consumer reports and found numerous complaints with similar stories like our own. At this time when energy costs are at an all time high and we have a son about to attend college this additional outlay of considerable monetary funds seems completely above what is reasonable. We are still awaiting a final cost report from the ford dealership, but wanted to make sure that we registered a formal complaint as we are confident that the 2004 ford freestar will be recalled. In addition to this current problem we have already had to replace the breaks and encountered electrical problems with the sliding door locks. Any information you have regarding this complaint would be most appreciative. *Tr
I have a ford e350 4x4 van 2003. There has been fumes accumulating in the van when driving. I get headaches and my eyes tear and my feel sick. I noticed the fumes intensely on 1.25.08 When driving highway miles in cold weather at a distance of 2.5 Hours and 132 miles one way and 264 round trip. The fumes build up when driving. I open my passenger window while still driving and it seems like I get more fumes. In addition when I put on the heater it also fill up the van. On 2.1.08 I did another trip like the one that was mention above. My wife an I experience the same affect which were headaches and nauseous. *Tr
