Well finally bought another vehicle..A week ago Wed. we were at Haldimand Motors in Cayuga and we purchased a 2005 Ford Windstar van. It is in real nice shape and they do all the safety checks and emmision tests on site. I had been calling since Tuesday to find out when it would be ready as I am on nights and wanted to have the time to pick it up..Well when I woke up about noon taday there was a message that the van was ready to be picked up. I got a good friend of mine Dan to go with me to get it they drove it around so I could do a final inspection on it and we noticed some dumb fuck car jockey had scraped up against something and broke the rear tail light on the drivers side and scraped the paint so had to leave with a coutesy car and will have to wait till sometime next week to pick it up. Hope this is not an omen of things to come...

I hope your 2005 Windstar is MUCH better than ours was. We went through 4 starters, the ABS ring, lower part of the engine had to be rebuilt and the transmission went. Thankfully that was all covered under waranty except the transmission. We had it repaired at a transmission place and they never repaired it properly. The place went out of business (bankrupt from what I hear) before they ever got it right. Then every 6 months or so, we ended up paying for different sensor ($200.00 each time) because the transmission rocked (and not in a good way)Finally in 2000, we traded it in and bought our 1998 Windstar. We haven't had too many things go wrong with that....touch wood.

I'm glad you have a Freestar and not a Windstar. 95 was not a good year for Windstars
