ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION
I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY 1995 FORD MUSTANG 5.0 STALLING. AFTER TAKING IT IN 4 TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF A MONTH STARTING 6-8-00 AND FINALLY ON 7-22-00 THE FORD DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE "STATOR" PART#E9TZ 12A112 A AT A COST OF $312.09. THIS WAS AFTER PAYING $476.68 FOR A NEW MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR, CLEANING OF THE INJECTORS, REPLACING THE AIR FILTER, AND FUEL FILTER THE FIRST TIME AROUND WHICH DID NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THE 1995 MUSTANGS SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE 1994 MUSTANGS ARE IN IT. I HAVE ALL MY RECEIPTS PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I SHOULD PROCEED.*AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:TORQUE CONVERTER
THE SPECIFIC FAILURE OF THE PART IN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS CALLED TORQUE CONVERTER. THIS PART IN THE TRANSMISSION IS REPONSIBLE FOR SHIFTING THE GEARS. THROUGH MY PERSONAL INVESTIGATIONS, I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT FORD VEHICLES BEFORE THE YEAR 1999 HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TORQUE CONVERTERS, REGARDLESS OF THE MAKE OF THE VEHICLE. WITH SO MUCH COMPELLING EVIDENCE ABOUT THE FAILURE OF TORQUE CONVERTERS IN FORD VEHICLES, IT SHOCKS ME THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL MANDATED BY THE GOVERNMENT. FORD REFUSES TO PAY FOR THIS DEFECT! PLEASE HELP ME IN RENDERING JUSTICE. *AK
