The original warranty booklet that came with car when I purchased it stated that emission sensors would be covered under warranty for 7 years or 70,000 miles under California emissions which I have on my car...when catalytic sensor monitor failed Ford refused to cover it under warranty, and I was forced to pay $269.to have repair done by dealership...Ford Motor Company should be held accountable for not complying with safety and emision standards..

I experience dizziness, nasea, and headaches after driving on the interstate 1-75 for approximately 10 minutes. I had to pull over to the side of the road and open all the windows. After 10 minutes my head cleared enough to drive to the next exit and get off. This is the fourth or fifth time this has happened. I am afraid now to drive my car with the windows up.
