I hard ONE Ford experience and it was my mum's compact. Don't even remember what model it was. Anyway, one day she drove up driveway on way to work and stopped by front-door to get something she forgot. Came back out and realized she had locked door with engine running! Couldn't get in!!! By time my Dad came home with his key, car had overheated and blown engine!!! Couldn't believe Ford would design engine with such poor cooling system, it can't even keep itself cool at idle!
Then I found out that Crown Vics cops used had to have cooling system upgraded before they could be put into service, WTF?$@!#%!!! Final straw that soured me on Ford permanently was Explorer fiasco. To make up for poor suspension design causing harsh ride, Ford had 26-psi recommended pressure ... for a 4000-lb car!! Then they tried to blame it on Firestone tyres!!! Horrible engineering and lack of corporate accountability made it "never Ford" for me!
Won't mention anything about my friends who tried to do trackdays with their Mustangs...
