The paint has bubbled and peeled in large sections all over the vehicle but started on hood. I was told by several people that in this particular 4-5 year of fords made there were problems with the annealing process (sealing, hardening) of the paint. It does not appear to be a thick layer and nor does it show any undercoat or primed surface. My van is soooooo ugly. I've reported it on several occasions to Ford Motor Co. and did not give up easily on my complaint process, but after many attempts failed, I'm done.
Other problems have occurred with this windstar also such as the electrical system is pretty fail. The interior lights flicker the door locks lock 15 minutes down the road.
Additionally; the electric windows don't work, one auto rear door does not work, the other only on occasion.
The operation of the heat/ac switch has a huge issue that would cost $300 to replace, so I can only keep it on A/C or nothing.
