1999 Ford Windstar LX 3.8 from North America
Faults:
At 40,000 needed rotors and breaks.
At about 45000 miles the Automatic transmission compleatly went bad and needed replaced because it was not repairable.
At 48000 miles the power steering pump went bad and needed replaced.
At 75000 the metal water system piping started leaking.
The light on the check engine would stay on after 40000 miles, but no one could see what was wrong.
The fuel level indicator would be incorrect from the time we bought the car.
80,000 miles the car would not start. the problem is the wiring side of the starter. I m working on this one now.
The rear tail light socket melted so I had no stop signal.
General Comments:
Problem lemon.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

It's amazing. Our vehicle had the same exact problems and we came to the same conclusion. Honda Odyssey. We kept our fingers crossed that the Windstar would make it to the dealership. Get the Honda, you won't be sorry.
