There is not enough comparable history to draw a useful model-year comparison.

Counts are not adjusted for sales, age, mileage exposure or reporting. A lower count does not establish that a car is problem-free.

    NHTSA’s mileage field refers to the reported incident, not necessarily the filing date. This shows report counts, not the likelihood of a failure.

    THE OIL PAN STARTED DRIPPING OIL ON MY DRIVEWAY. WENT TO GARAGE AND ASKED IF IT WAS POSSIBLE FOR OIL PAN TO BECOME POROUS AND THE GARAGE MECHANIC STATED THAT MOST FORDS AND MERCURYS OF YEAR 1994 HAVE DEVELOPED THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THE FORD COMPANY HASN'T ISSUED ANY RECALL BUT HAS DRPPPED THE PRICE OF AN OIL PAN. THE COST OF REPLACEMENT WITH LABOR WAS $527.05. NOW I FIND THAT MY GAS TANKS ARE LEAKING AND AGAIN WENT BACK TO THE GARAGE AND THEY STATED THAT YEAR 1994 AGAIN, HAD PROBLEMS WITH FUEL TANKS LEAKING AND BECOMING POROUS. I HAVE ORDERED NEW TANKS AS THE REAR TANK IS LEAKING OVER THE EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND THE SADDLE TANK IN FRONT IS NEAR THE EXHAUST SYSTEM AND BOTH ARE A DANGER FOR EXPLOSION. WHY ISN'T FORD STANDING BEHIND ITS PRODUCT AS THE COST OF REPLACEMENT IS EXCESIVE.*AK
