(reported on)Thunderbird
I purchased the T-bird used from Smith Ford in Omaha. Shortly after that, I got a selective recall notice from Ford that the head gasket on 6 cylinder T-birds might need to be replaced. I brought mine in because I was leaking coolant from around the gasket on the head. The dealer that looked at it was Bob Zimmerman Ford. They looked at it and told me it was leaking from the valve covers, which it wasn't. They even charged me for the examination.
Evenutally the gasket had to be replaced and it cost me $1,100.00. Ford should have to repay owners who get screwed over by their poor quaility parts.
Don't buy a Ford. They are cheap cars that are not meant to last beyond the warranty period.
