This van would be considered a lemon if all of this happened within two years. First the door lock fell out, then the rearview mirror fell off, then the wrong fuse size had been installed and the the car could not started and all electrical systems failed. This all happened in the first year of ownership. After that all the ball joints had to be replaces the following year. After that the brakes failed due to too light a duty brake being installed on a conversion van. In 1998 the transmission started to go out, it has not completely gone out yet. It shudders on light to moderate acceleration. The dealer says it is probably the thrust converter. In june 1999 the fuel pump went out. The dealer said that it had been improperly installed at the factory because of corrosion. The car pump went out on a two lane 6% grade going down hill causing the power steering and brakes to practically fail do to no power. The courtesy lights have now failed and we are unable to turn any of them on. We are worried about an electrical fire due to the short. We want ford to offer to pay for fixing these items. There are many service bulletins regarding all of these things.
