Ford said tough, no warranty, no policy claim, no help whatsoever, the dealer said he never saw this problem before, I must say, I have never had a problem with cooling systems on any modern vehicle, this suck and the repair was 10% of the value of the car, soon I'll have to get rid of it or face bankruptcy from the cost of repairs, I will never buy another Ford.
Update from Jan 5, 2012: Subsequent to this, we had to replace the ignition coils on top of each plug, they probably fried with the overheating, no help from the dealer or Ford, another $1600 dollars, thats over $4000.00 in 1 year, I guess Fix Or Repair Daily, is still what FORD stands for, I will certainly after 1 Explorer and 3 Thunderbirds, never, never consider buying a Ford again, the sad part is, they could tel the supplier fix this and they have the power to make it right. On my Lexus IS350, I never paid a nickel in repairs, same mileage, 7 years old.
