2005 Ford Freestar LX review from North America
"Good except for one engine problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just got a "P 0340" engine code error. Dealer cannot find the problem, but computer now says everything is OK. Hope problem went away!
Anyone had a similar problem? Car stalled and would only start and run for 30 seconds or so. "Check engine" light came on thankfully. Supposedly indicated a "Cam Sensor" issue according to the dealer. Towed to dealer today, Apr 29, 2008.
Any suggestions? Otherwise I like the van very much.
