FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 24, 1998.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STEERING:HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM . the power steering line of my minivan brushed slightly against the mountable curb as we backed from the driveway to the street in front of our house. this mountable curb and gutter is typically used in residential neighborhoods. eden pairie's standard plate shows a curb height of 4 inches. ourdriveway is not on any type of an incline. the bump was so slight that it did not concern me at the time. i proceeded to drive forward and to enter the highway. luckily it was the part of the highway that still has stoplights, so my speed was very slow. the car made a groaning noise, i had a complete failure of the power steering sysem of my motor vehicle, and black smoke began pouring out of my vehicle. the ford dealership said the slight bump had crimped the powersteering line causing a great pressure in the power steering lines which in turn exploded pouring power steering fluid all over the engine. the engine had to be degreased and the powersteering pump was damaged due to the sudden lack of powersteering fluid. ford would not cover this under warranty saying that the slight bump was an accident that caused the powersteering lines to be damaged. this experience felt so lide threatening that i began to investigate the problem further. i found the placement of these lines to be so low in the front of the vehicle that they were at the level of the spoiler or even slightly lower. the minivan's with the tow package are lower than the other vans. i have had mechanics, engineers, and product liability expers examine the vehicle. they agree that this is a design defect that could likely result in death. the experts say this ;fluid could hit the catalytic converter which would bring the temperature high enough to cause a fire which burns much hotter than gasoline. additionally, the slightest bump causes a complete failure of the powersteering system. this design defect is likely to cause death or serious bodily injury..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA5140WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on June 05, 1999.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with WHEELS:RIM . 2 of 4 wheels on our windstar developed wheel leaks on the weld line joining the tire bead flange to the center hub section of the wheel (original suspicion was tire or valve stem leak, but soaping rim shows air bubbling through weld). first failed wheel replaced by dealer. second wheel replaced by local garage (dealer wanted $50 deductable) and is available for examination. i've never heard of such a defect, but ford dealer mechanic volunteered that they've "seen windstar wheels leak". garage replacing second wheel made similar comment. a friend with 1996 windstar had two wheels fail with same problem. dealer rejected claim of accelerated tire wear caused by first failure ($80 replacement cost). second tire has wear on outer edges and will need premature replacement ($80!). as a safety-related defect (loss of tire pressure due to wheel leakage could lead to tire failure and potential loss of vehicle control) ford logically should be responsible for all costs related to correcting this defect. based on the limited sample i've seen (4 of 8 wheels on two vans failed; factory and independent mechanics specifically aware of problem with windstar wheels), logically qualifies it as an epidemic failure (albeit with a low sampling certainty, pending expansion of the sample base). it's likely that ford motor co. has service records to confirm these observations..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMZA51U6WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 28, 2000.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with WHEELS . at the 75000 mile check up with henry curtis ford, we asked that they check out an abnormal noise in the front left wheel. they reported that they could not hear any problem. we drove the van to utah the next week. on the way back the noise became increasingly worse. we drove it locally for two weeks with the noise becoming worse. we called for another appointment after it sounded like something broke. we tried driving to the dealership but ended up needing a tow when the wheel broke. about six weeks later the right front tire began to lose air. thinking that we had picked up a nail we went to the tire shop to get the tire repaired. the shop discovered that the wheel was leaking air at the welds. after calling around to find a new wheel they came and told us that wheels were hard to find because so many were leaking and breaking at the welds. quite frankly i am afraid to let my wife put herself and our children at risk of the wheels breaking while she is going somewhere. i went to the dealer to see what they knew about this and they said they knew nothing. i asked who the manufacturer of the wheels is and they were not able to give me that information. i am under the impression that this is the only wheel for that car. i am concerned for the safety of other families who might be traveling in a van that they feel is safe when the dealer can't even find the problem and sends them off to their destination with a false idea of safety. i shudder to think what would happen to a family traveling at 75 mph down a mountain pass in nevada and a wheel breaks. have you had other reports of this nature?.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA51U7WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on May 01, 2000.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR . i am a letter carrier for the united states postal service in whitestone, ny. we have 33 1998 ford windstars in our fleet. i have noticed 3 recurrent problems in our vans, in the three years that we have had them. first, the vehicles have manual crank windows, not power windows. the driver side window regulator has failed on several vehicles, perhaps 6 of them, and on a few of them, failed more than once. there has got to be better material used in these window regulators for the future. the failure rate is really unacceptable. the second problem that i have noticed, is a squealing noise coming from the front suspension. i have heard this on many vehicles so it seems that this is also an engineering defect. the third recurrent problem is a strange one. when the weather gets warm, the computer reads that there is an open door, yet all of the doors are securely locked. the reminder chimes will ding, the icon will appear on the dash, and the interior lights stay on. strangely enough, when the speed is over 15mph, the chimes will stop dinging, but the dashboard icon will stay lit. one of our vehicles has been to the shop 8 times for this problem, and they still can't figure out what the problem is! if i see these recurrent problems on a small sample of 32 vehicles, i can only imagine that the same problem must happen all over the country wherever windstars are being used. somebody in authority, please investigate these problems! thanks..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Windstar 1998 problem was reported in LITTLE NECK, NY.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Oct 17, 2000.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK . abs failed completly along with the rest of the brake system. service dealer says a geared ring that reflects to a sensor cracked. this loosened the ring along the axel shaft so that it was no longer located correctly. the failure was complete, and with no warning left me without braking ability on a small hill terminating onto a very busy highway with my 9 yr old daughter with me. it was only great luck that no truck, bus, or car was coming when i rolled right into the highway instead of stopping. no accident resulted, just a very close call. the service dealer reported that i was the second windstar in the day with the same problem. this is a small town to have two (rare events)! he also inferred that it was rare and thought there was no reason to call ford. how many other dealer are not reporting this failure?.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA5148WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 08, 1999.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK . there are two significant safety issues that we continue to experience with our 1998 ford windstar. the transmission continues to intermittently "neutral" at the worst possible times. the effect of this is that the vehicle will begin into an intersection and then the transmission will disengage and the rpm of the engine will race. at this point the transmission might engage after several seconds with a jolt, screeching the tires. in some cases we have had to shift into park and back into drive several times to get the transmission to engage. when this first occurred, we had only owned the car for less than two months and it would only happen every few hundred miles. ford had to place a "flight recorder" in the vehicle to verify that it was happening. ford replaced the transmission in early 1999. we began experiencing the problem again in the summer of 2000 and ford has been unable to repair this problem. we have had it in the shop a total of 12 times with the symptom manifesting itself multiple times in between. the vehicle has been in the shop almost continually since july 15th, 2000 and is still there as of this submission. if it were not for extreme defensive driving and anticipation of the problem that has helped us avoid an accident so far. however, we continue to have the car delivered to us that is supposed to be repaired and we continually have the same problem. the second problem is also reoccurring and deals with the abs brakes continually going out of adjustment. when they are out of adjustment the stopping power of the car in emergency situations is greatly impaired. the brakes are self-adjusting but continue to be out of adjustment. we have had this problem looked at by four different ford dealerships and they readjust the brakes that only corrects the problem for a short period of time. the brakes continue to go out adjustment and ford denies that this is a problem, even though it continues to happen..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMZA5142WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 1998.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . ford issued a tsb 97-22-13 in oct '97 for this was third serious problem. yet, when i returned the car to the dealer the dealer said he never heard of this problem and wanted the car till he could discover it. the real issue is that this neutral condition after a stop was not a complete neutral condition but rather the van started up slowly till it reached 3 mph and then would go no faster. imagine starting across a highway in front of a truck and only finding out that you cannot go faster than 3 mph in drive. ford should have recalled all models affected and replaced the transmission immediately. it took two dealers visits and a rental car for two days before i got someone to admit that there was a known problem and they would fix it for me. without the warranty it would have cost me $ 2,500.00. *ak.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA514XWB.

Ford Windstar 1998 Suspension Front

Ford Windstar 1998 Suspension Front Review #740415

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 16, 2001.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SUSPENSION:FRONT . i had backed out of a parking spot and was proceeding forward when the front of car, left side, dropped down abuptly. van ground to a stop and i hopped out to investigate. the left front fender was much lower than the right, but it was dark so i couldn't see much else. wanting to get the van back to my home, i tried to drive it farther, but it made a loud grinding noise that sounded similar to a train on a track, and began to smell like burnt rubber. at this point i decided it best to stop and had the van towed to my mechanic. the mechanic advised that the coil spring was broke and on his advise i had both front coil springs replaced as well as the struts. he said i was fortunate to be moving at such a slow speed because i would have lost control due to the spring rubbing against the tire and rim. we also replaced the tire. we contacted the dealership and showed the service manager the broken coil spring and wrote a request for assistance. the area inspector, who never saw the part, turned down the request because i didn't take the van to the ford dealer. the vehicle wasn't under warranty and i needed it fix right away, plus the dealer was 20 miles away, so i made a quick decision to have it towed to my mechanic who was close. i didn't know what was wrong, i'm not a mechanic! after alot of run-around, the dealership has offered to cover half the repair bill and i think that is as good as it will get. i'm still concerned that others may not be as lucky as i was to be in a parknig lot and moving so slow. i saw the usa today press release and knew this had to be reported. thank-you!!! *ak.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA5143WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on .FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with CHILD SEAT:HARNESS BUCKLE:INFANT . i purchased the evenflo medallion carseat (model #2541113p1, manufactured 25feb00). my 16 month old son is able to unclasp the chest buckle. i have to to stop every few blocks to relatch it. i contacted evenflo about my problem and was told that the buckle had been changed on the newer model and they would send me the new buckle. but, if i use this buckle and it does not hold, evenflo would assume no liability since i had altered the harness. they said this buckle had not been tested on my model carseat so they would not guarantee its safety ( even though they offered to give it to me, interesting don't you think?). i was told by their customer service rep that the best thing to do would be to buy a new seat. this seat cost about $100, and i purchased it because i was told that a five point harness was the safest. i truly cannot afford another seat ( although i will buy one if it is my only recourse). please advise me on my next step. thank you for your time.*ak.Ford Windstar 1998 problem was reported in HENDERSON, KY.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 29, 2001.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . the 1998 ford windstar 3.8l v-6 engine's head gasket leaked on our windstar and the coolant contaminated the engine oil, which created engine failure due to excess bearing wear. in the last 2,000 miles we lost approximately 2 quarts of coolant. ford says it does not have a recall for the 3.8l head gasket problem and will not compensate us for the costs of installing a new fqr 3.8l engine. the new fqr engine only has a 24 month/24,000 mile warranty, which may fail again after the 2year/24,000 mile and the customer is taken advantage of again! ford is aware of the 3.8l engine head gasket problem and has had the problem since 1988 model year. ford has issued two onps (owner notification program) 98m01 which extended the warranty for 5years/60,000 through 1995 model years, and the 00m09 which extended the 98m01 warranty to 7years/100,000. i have checked the nhtsa complaint database and found they are still having problems with the 3.8l head gaskets through the 1999 windstars, mustangs, sables, taurus, lincoln continentals, and cougars. many of these vehicles are having the problem as early 18,000 to 36,000 miles but the bulk are having the problems in excess of 3years/36,000 and the customer is stuck with a huge repair bill, of $4,000 to $6,000 dollars. ford claims they corrected the problem after the 1995 model year with new head gaskets even though it is obvious the problem has not been corrected. ford has sold and still may be selling a product that is defective that could lead to creating accidents with multiple fatalities. ford has admitted to the fact that the 3.8l head gaskets should not fail before 7 years/100,000 miles for vehicles manufactured through 1995 with the 00m09 owner notification program. ford is still having a problem with the 3.8l head gaskets failing through the 1999 model year! why aren't they taking care of these problems. why hasn't the government (nhtsa) investigated this and permit ford to take advantage of the consumer?*ak.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA5147WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Oct 11, 2001.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES:TREAD/BELT . i noticed recently a vibration in the steering wheel while driving. from past experience, i thought one of the tires needed balancing, since i did not feel any problems with the brake rotors. i went to have the tires checked, and the goodyear dealer said the tires had a defect in the belts. he recommended replacing all 4 tires, because he said they all looked bad. i made an appointment for the next day (10/12/01) to have them replaced, but wouldn't you know it, i went to drive to work on the freeway on 10/11/01 and the rear passenger side tire blew up. i think that goodyear should replace these tires at "no charge" instead of pro-rating them, but that probably won't happen without a recall right? i would not want this to happen to anybody else driving on the freeway. what if they have bad tires, but did not notice any vibration like i did? can these tires blow up without any warning to other drivers?*ak (tiresize: p215 70r15).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMDA514XWB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Oct 12, 2001.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FRONT UNDERHOOD . on the evening of october 12th 2001, while driving with my wife and children in our 98 gl windstar to see a cousin of mine. we approached a semicircle curve on a hill, as i turned my wheel to the right entering on to the curve, when all of a sudden smoke started to come from the bottom of my vehicle. my first thought was that the car was overheating but then fire was starting to come out as well. i yelled to everyone on board to exit the vehicle and stay some distance away. as the flames were getting worse. i had to pop open the hood and see if i could control the fire. i saw the flame shoot out of the bottom and the sides of the car. i immediately turned off the car and then disconnected the positive battery cable on the advice of a stranger that was there. another person came with a bucket of water and we managed to douse the fire out. my cousin arrived later towards where we were as my wife had notified him by cellular of our situation. we took the vehicle to his home and in the morning he took a look at the car to see what had caused it to flame. he noticed that power steering fluid was visible and that the power steering pressure hose had rubbed with time on the rack and pinion or something metallic of the car slowly forming a groove on the hose about an inch and a half wide and about 1/4 inch deep. this created a hole in the groove where it was rubbing when i made my turn on the hill, thus pouring out power steering fluid on to the catalic converter which then started to smoke and fire. importantly the protective fire cover placed on this pressure hose had worn out as well. i have only 63,256 miles on the car. i thank god that we are all safe and thank god for those who assisted us and also thank god that this did not happen to my wife and children while i was not there. i can't imagine being out alone and having this happen to someone else then having a great catastrophe with some deaths. i have kept the power steering hose as evidence of my situation. *ak.Vehicle was on fire. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMZA5149WB.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Sept 17, 2002.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY . our fuel pump went for a second time in a three month period. the cause of the fuel pumps malfunction was a short in the wiring which was caused by the fact that the depth of the fuel tank was not within the required specifications. the depth of the fuel tank was only 6 5/8" deep. if the depth of the tank is to shallow, the wiring atop the fuel pump can become chaffed on the metal fuel hose clamp. ford had issued a service bulletin on this very issue. what occurred with our van was precisely what the service bulletin warns of. the service bulletin states that if thefuel tank depth is less than 7 3/4" replace the fuel tank 9002 and fuel delivery module 9h307. our van clearly met that criteria, however, ford would not replace the fuel pump or fuel tank at fords expense. the service manager and technician at ford stated that if i were a regular customer of duddie ford, that they would not let me take the van with me because of the safetyissues involved. when i asked what exactly they meant, they stated that because of the chaffing of the wiring on the fuel pump, a short could occur, which could ignite gasoline fumes and therefore result in a catastrophic tragedy. basically, the van could explode. an appointment was made at granite ford in rochester, new hampshire for replacement of the fuel tank per the service bulletin. the granite ford technician also measured the depth of the fuel tank and found a depth of only 6 5/8".

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2003.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SEAT BELTS . however, we are currently very upset with our local ford dealer over a simple seat belt. we own a 1998 ford windstar. when the car was less than a year old we took it in to have a frayed seat belt repaired. i have the paperwork for this repair. we then had a baby and installed a five point harness car seat in that seat position. the car seat remained there for four years, (removed only when so filthy it had to be cleaned), thus the seat belt remained locked in position and was not pulled out or retracted during that time. that baby is now old enough to need a booster seat (which utilizes the seat belt directly). within six months of starting to use the booster seat daily we noticed that the seat belt was once again fraying. i called the dealer and he told me to bring it in. we took it back to the original repair place (with the paperwork from the first repair) and explained the situation. they told us that since the first repair was at 7138 miles and the van now has 89,123 miles on it that the seat belt was no longer under warranty. i asked for a letter stating this fact (that the seat belt was not under warranty) and they refuse. *nlm.Ford Windstar 1998 problem was reported in TIJERAS, NM.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2003.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . i bought this van because of the clean condition of it . i have the 3.0 ltr engine which has been excellent. the transmission so far is ok. steering is a dangerous mess with almost everything new and 3 alignments. if you take your eyes off the road even for a second you can end up in a ditch. my wife & i both went off the road in a 1 month span. we both have excellent driving records. the front end seems ok to ford. something serious is wrong with the steering. won?t let my wife drive it anymore. has a little vibration that you cannot get rid of. sending this to you because i called ford and they said there was no safety recall or any steering issues with that van. had a service bulletin in front of me at that time stating there was. but that is not the problem. ford denied the all of the above. am afraid to sell to someone because i think someone will get hurt. don?t know why ford keeps putting in the same bad parts year after year. i have had all the dome light problems and door locks etc. they will still say no problems. bought it used at a good price thinking it was a bad tire causing the problems. if accident occurs will seek damages .Mileage was 0 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 15, 2003.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . i sent the following in an email to ford motor company, and also talked with their "customer service". they said that they could not do anything about this dispute between the dealer rep and myself, as it was a field decision. the original repair was a rebuild of the drum brake on the right rear wheel, the same wheel that later suffered a catastrophic failure of the shoes. luckily, we were driving at over 35 mph, so the wheel did not lock up until we stopped at a friends house. the entire hub assembly had to be rebuilt after the brake siezed. note: this is the second brake rebuild. the car has also suffered from broken tie rods. ======================================================== the parsons dealership that rebuilt my right rear brake last october will not admit that the failure of the brake pads, and subsequent complete failure of the brake assembly last week which required replacing the drum, is covered under their warranty (12,000 or 12 months.) they say it was due to a rusted parking brake cable that seized. i say that is a big load of baloney....even if it was rusted (in a pretty new car!) then they should have seen that last year. the total cost of repair on 9/20/02 was $639.88. i want ford to: 1) make parsons return my money, and 2) reprimand parsons for poor customer service. i will not buy a car from them again, nor will they ever see my car again - despite their admonition at the bottom of their invoice that says "warranty 90 days or 4000 miles on adjustments, align, balance. all other repairs covered 12 months or 12000 miles. customer must return to parsons ford for defective repairs. no refunds if customer takes to another repair facility. i won't go into the delays (a full week to repair the drum and brake assembly)..Mileage was 0 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on May 15, 2003.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . head gasket blew. never ran hot. always serviced on time. talked to owner at the ford dealership, who in turn had me talk to the service mgr. he told me he would look into it and see if there was anything ford would do about it. he never called me back, so i called him after a week. he said he left a message on my answering machine. i don't have an answering machine...then he tells me the only problems with the 3.8 engines was in the t-birds, not the windstars. by this time i have already looked on the net and seen the problems are with the windstars as well. he then tells me to come in and talk with the owner. i had already taken off work to do this. i now have the van at my mechanic to be repaired. i will never again buy a ford product. i personally believe that if ford is producing a faulty product, they should take the blame when it tears up. i know from the net that they did a repair, or trade in allowance on some years for the same problem, but stopped this program in 1998. there was never a recall. i think they tried to just ignore it and see if it would go away!.Mileage was 77034 miles.

Ford Windstar 1998 Suspension Front Springs Coil Springs Review #10067713

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Apr 23, 2004.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SUSPENSION:FRONT:SPRINGS:COIL SPRINGS . my 1998 ford windstar had a failure of the front left leaf spring. the resulting damage was at low speeds but the left front tire was damaged beyond repair. in dec 2001 i had the recall by ford accomplished to install a guard on the leaf springs. this guard was installed to prevent this type of damage. this first recall was a "safety recall" and the fix for that recall was ineffective. this should be a full out safety recall to replace these springs before someone dies. it shouldn't take a death to change the policy on these springs. i believe this fault to be more related to a material defect then a rust or corrosion problem. i have over 100,000 miles on my windstar and i inspect it periodically for possible damage. these springs have little or no rest nor did the spring at the point of break. without detailed inspection microscopes a minuet crack couldn't be seen with the eye. this is a consistent problem with this vehicle as noted in the complaint section with over 77 complaints. just think of the problems that aren't registered on this site. i'm only concerned for the unsuspecting family who has no idea that these springs will fail it's only a matter of time. ford will only replace them if they break. they will break as a manufacture defect. i feel the safety council should revisit this problem. i have some video of the damage to my springs and tire for proof if there is any need for such evidence in an accident investigation. let me restate myself this is a very serious problem that is being overlooked. don't let this problem kill some before more action is done. one death from this problem is too much. these vans carry our children on a daily basis and a whole family could be lost in just one accident.*ak.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 106000 miles.

Ford Windstar 1998 Engine And Engine Cooling Review #10072334

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Apr 17, 2004.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . at approximately 57,600 miles my 1998 ford windstar developed an antifreeze leak. i took the vehicle to my local garage and it was diagnosed as a leak at the timing cover gasket. i had this repaired at a cost of $1453. two weeks later, as i was driving to a baseball game, my car began to stall. it was hard to start, and the oil light was flickering when the car was running and there was a loud rattle coming from the engine. there was no warning before this happened, the temperature gauge was normal, no rattling sounds from the engine,etc. i had the car towed back to my local garage. my mechanic diagnosed the rattling noise as coming from the lower bearings, the engine bearings were failing at 57,800 miles!!!! i called my local ford dealer where i had bought the windstar and asked them if there were any open programs on the engine, since when the timing cover gasket had failed, i had searched the internet to see if this was a common failure( it was). the ford dealer was no help, i then called ford customer service and they were no help. i then wrote a letter to william clay ford and he had a blaine yung call me on 5/8/2004. mr. yung was also no help, quoting that the warranty was 3 yrs./36,000 miles. meanwhile i had to have the car repaired at a cost of $4200, new remanufactured engine, tune-up, etc. i believe that the defect on the timing cover gasket which caused the original antifreeze leak, leaked antifreeze into the crankshaft and caused the engine failure. this car has been well maintained and should have gotten me at least to 120,000 miles before i need to replace an engine. i have owned many other cars and have gotten at 150,000 miles out of them before i had to do any major repairs (engine or transmission). i feel ford should back their products and own up to this defect. *la.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 57600 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Feb 12, 2005.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i purchased my van from my grandfather's estate. on saturday, february 12, 2005, i was driving my 1998 ford windstar. i was traveling from a school function where i teach with my seven-year-old daughter in the van. my van seemed to have smoke coming from under the hood. i was stuck in traffic on highway 183 heading north toward cedar park where i live. i couldn't make the light at the junction of 620 to pull into a parking lot, so i went past the light and turned into the construction area just north of that intersection. i had already called my husband to meet me because i was concerned about the van. when i pulled in, i popped the hood and saw small flames and smoke coming from the driver side rear section under the hood. i dropped the hood and grabbed my daughter from the car. i then called 911 and they dispatched the fire department. while i waited, i pulled a bottle of water from the van, popped the hood and sprinkled water on the flames. when the fire department found me, the fire was smaller. they finished putting out the fire and told me that i probably saved my van by sprinkling water on it. it appeared to be electrical and near the area where the cruise control is located. i was in tears by the time my husband arrived and it was a horrible experience. i am grateful that we were not injured, but am furious that ford has not recalled my van. i did have it repaired at computer age automotive in cedar park and my insurance agent is ryan with state farm whom i did submit the claim. i was told that state farm does not have plans to pursue ford. i don't want another family to have this problem. it could have been a extremely bad situation..Vehicle was on fire.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 18, 2006.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL . even though the van i just purchased does not seem to have a recall on it i had total brake failure due to complete leaking out of all the brake fluid through the cruise control deactivation switch, the dual master cylinder is supposed to prevent this but it didn't. the switch on the bottom of the master cylinder and the fact that the rear wheel cylinders were seeping allowed all the fluid to leave after only three weeks of driving. i just purchased the vehicle. i had mechanics check it out and the switch is the same type that is causing the fires. i have to wonder if the leaking dripping on to hot motor parts could cause the fires as well as some electrical overload due to the brake fluid eating through plastic and rubber . i truly regret purchasing this vehicle before researching. i may be asking the dealer to trade me into another vehicle just due to not wanting to die at an early age due to fords lack of quality control it is a shame that any manufacturer can build any piece of junk without regards to end result and only worrying about the profit of selling and the fact that risk management after the fact of waiting for many to be effected by death or loss of vehicle to have a recall forced and fixing a bad design once pressed to do so. i feel the master cylinders whole safety is in that one chamber is most likely functional under most system failures of wheel cylinders , hoses, etc but having a part directly attached to the front chamber and with the common likelihood of rear wheel cylinder leakage at some point could lead to total system failure like i experienced. the fact that this master cylinder is hidden from easy view does not allow the owner to easily visualize a leak at this part. why is brake fluid needed to actuate a deactivation of the cruise control wouldn't a switch (electrical or mechanical) placed with the brake pedal arm activating it a simpler way of making this happen. *jb.Mileage was 170000 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Apr 24, 2003.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . 1. ford sent recall notice (01s19/01m03) in september, 2001. vehicle was taken in for service (11/7/01) and the receipt indicates that safety shields were installed 'to prevent a front spring failure from puncturing the front tires'. the notice also stated that 'what ford will do for you': "ford motor company will also pay far any repairs directly relating to the front coil springs of you vehicle free of charge (parts and labor)." it was at that time (2001), the owner received an 'extended coverage transferable warranty notice' on the front springs for 10 years from the warranty start date, regardless of mileage". 2. the springs may have fractured at a later date, or were broken at that time and not replaced. the vehicle has always had very low front ground clearance. because of the low ground clearance and the installed shields, the spring failure was not noted even when new tires were installed. returning the vehicle to the dealer in 2009, after a front break line failure, the owner inquired about checking for broken front springs under the recall campaign mentioned in the notice from 2001. that is when he leaned that the safety recall issue was satisfied with the "shield installation". this action apparently also removed the vin from the safety recall data base. thus, assuming that this is no longer a safety issue, the owner continues to drive the low mileage vehicle (less than 100,000 miles). 3. the cost of replacing the springs was estimated at $400 to $600 dollars by the dealer and no corrective action is being taken as apparently this is no longer a safety issue. the vehicle is a 1998 ford windstar that was purchased on 10/16/97, with five miles on it. 4. is this vehicle safe to drive as there are nearly 100 similar complaints on this safety complaint web site? 5. as this vehicle did not qualify in the clunker program, is spring failure a lemon law issue? *tr.Mileage was 83000 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Dec 19, 2009.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SUSPENSION . i noticed my van was 'feeling weird' when i drove it-almost like i was driving on a slippery road and the back end was sliding. this went on for about 4 days. i had to drive my son to visit his father on an extremely snowy day. the roads were drivable but did have some snow on them. when i proceeded down the hill i live on, the sliding sensation was extremely exaggerated. the further i drove, the worse it got. i had to drive in 1st gear going less than 20 m.p.h. with the back end of my van fishtailing. i thought for sure we were going to roll over. thank god i was passing the mechanic's garage i use, and i was able to pull in. i have just been informed that the rear axle has snapped and the vehicle is not drivable. upon searching for how much a rear axle is going to cost, i was surprised to find a site where people list the problems they've had with the same vehicle. this is not an unusual thing to have occur!!!! people could very easily be killed when this breaks. it was only by the grace of god that we didn't wreck. ford needs to further investigate this and put a recall on the rear axle. *tr.Mileage was 95000 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on Sept 19, 2010.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SUSPENSION:REAR . this has happened on the inner roads and near from my house. i had heard the creaking noise coming from the rear and thought about my car's shocks are shot. then suddenly i lost control and stopped the car, luckily no injuries either to me or the nearby property. with hazard lights on i drove the car very slowly home and looked under the car. what i saw really shocked me. the rear axle beam of my ford windstar(1998) cracked approximately 18"-24" from the driver side rear wheel and the entire welding (?)has separated from the mid portion. i could see the right portion of the beam welded and intact. i had just repaired the break fluid line for almost $600 and the mechanic never said a word about this crack before the repairs. i believe the rear axle / beam is a part of the vehicle that should last the lifetime of the vehicle and at least should not crack without giving any sign on the dashboard. thanks *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 138246 miles.

FORD WINDSTAR 1998 car safety problem was reported on May 24, 2011.FORD WINDSTAR 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS . i received a letter earlier this year regarding my 1998 ford windstar for a rear axle recall. i had it serviced at malouf ford in north brunswick, nj. when my son picked it up, he was told there was a new recall for the front right subframe rusting out (similar problem as the rear axle). they checked the subframe on my car and it was severely rusted. he was told they would call us when the parts came in to fix it. i had an appointment to fix the subframe this past tuesday (24/may). the service department called and said that while the subframe was definitely rusted out, and that it was due to the same defect as described, that particular recall was for 1999-2003 windstars and since mine is a 1998, they will not fix it. please note i had no clue of the recall or the damage. the ford dealership advised me of it. i waited for the parts and brought the car in when they asked. now, though they confirm that this rusted-out subframe on the passenger side is exactly what the recall is for, and there is the potential for a deadly crash if that subframe fails, they are not "authorized" to repair a 1998 windstar. i don't know if my car is a late-model 1998, but it was manufactured at the same ontario, canada plant as the cars that qualify for the recall, and a rusted right subframe is not a normal wear-and-tear condition. it is beyond negligent to acknowledge the problem in a 1999 windstar, but pretent the same exact problem in a 1998 windstar from the same plant is not their problem. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2FMZA5147WB.

Ford Windstar 1998 Reports


my 95 ford exploere engine surges when turn my air conditioner on

Ihave a 1994 ford probe which has started to idle very low and stalls at times. It is a 4 cyl. w/ air and a 5 speed. any ideas? I replaced the fuel filter, air flow meter and added HEAT to gas tank to dry and clean fuel system. I think my pcv valv

should a standard transmission truck start when it is in gear without the clucth engaged?

should a 2005 standard transmission ford ranger start when in gear without the clutch engaged?

96 Ford F250 Emergency brake lever gets caught on the auto adjustment spring, causing brakes to be permanently engaged, also allowing the parking break lever to rub against the hub, which can cut through over time.

try pushing the pedals button closer to you. you must have the pedal adjustment button to the left of the radio, looks like a foot, that brings the pedals more inward towards the driver. hope it helped. or look carefully if a wire has corroded. it

i would check ur multi switch on ur stearing colum

on the pedal

whats the sound

Just bought an '06 E-350 van. Left d'ship got on highway and noticed shimmy when I got to 60....same problem????

that happened to me last night! If you rock the car back and for while shifting then it should release the safety lock!

why does it take turning off the veh. while pulling in on the shifter arm, them starting it again while still holding it inwards ever so slightly??
