1996 FORD CVPI — ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE

MY CAR OVERHEATED AND SHUT OFF, WHEN I GOT IT TO A REPAIR STATION, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE INTAKE MANIFOLD, WHICH I HAVE IN MY POSSESSION. ANYWAY, I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED, TO THE NEAREST PLACE TO HAVE IT REPAIRED TO THE COST OF $125.00. THIS HAPPENED ON A SUNDAY, IT TOOK A WEEK TO HAVE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD REPLACED WITH A COST OF $779.00. THREE DAYS OFF WORK, BECAUSE OF IT AND ALSO LOSS OF WAGES AND LOSS OF USE OF AUTO. I HAVE NOTICED THAT FOR THE POLICE INTERCEPTOR, THAT IF YOU ARE ON THE POLICE FORCE THAT THIS WAS REPLACED AT NO COST..SO WHAT MAKES THE POLICE FORCE ANY BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE CONSUMER THAT PURCHASES THIS AUTO. WHY CAN THIS NOT BE REPLACED FOR ANYONE THAT HAPPENS TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN. I FEEL THAT WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS OF THIS OCCURRENCE, THAT THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FOR THOSE THAT HAVE ALREADY HAD THE REPLACEMENT DONE, THEY SHOULD BE REIMBURSED THE AMOUNT OF MONIES THAT IT TOOK TO HAVE THIS SITUATION TAKEN CARE OF. LISA LOVEJOY. *LA
