'99 windstar, we bought it used in 2003, tranny went out within 6 mo. (while on vacation).
The mechanic said it had been pulled out previously also. then in Sept. 2010 we had to do it again.
Multiple electrical issues, several recalls. Now being bought back by Ford due to rear axle issue and front suspension problems.
DO NOT BUY A FORD MINIVAN.
