Rust on hood, already documented at friendship Ford in lenoir, nc. This car is taken care of very well with regular washing and waxing, we were almost sick to our stomach to find rust with so few miles and on an aluminum hood at that. We were really shocked when we were told it was not covered because it was not perforated. I have spoken to several people in the field and they say they have never seen aluminum perforate due to rust. I hope Ford Motor Co. Will do the right thing and fix these problems that they already know exist. My self and many other loyal customers are left with a deflated feeling toward a company we once admired the workmanship of and where quality was always job 1. thank you for hearing my concerns, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'

There is a large amount of water sloshing around in the rear portion of this car. It is a convertible and it has accumulated water in the well where the convertible top goes when it has been lowered. Some of this water has migrated into the rear seat area and the carpet has been soaking wet. This water does not drain out and it can be heard sloshing around when the brakes are applied.

Takata recall ///paint peeling and bulbing

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

Paint is bubbling on front lip of hood. There is also a small spot on the roof but unknown if it is related to the problem. Hood is made of aluminum and Ford apparently knows of the problem since they issued a tsb in 2004 on this very subject. They won't cover the fix because of mileage but this has nothing to do with mileage. This was caused by iron contamination at the factory before the car was painted.

The car was making a dry pass by at a drag strip (non racing) while driving the car ignition cut off, causing a loss of control. Car hit rear quarter panel and then hit the front tire and suspension ripping the front bumper off. Driver was injured but not bad.
