"Comfort, ride, power great... everything else sucks"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Computer fault which caused misfiring which, in turn, caused numerous other components to fail. Had to replace comp (MAF Sensor, etc).

$$$ Transmission overhaul.

Paint (large spots of white spreading all over the car, and getting worse every time it's washed).

Plastic components inside the car warping (glove box and center consoles).

Right turn signal blows chronically, modules been replaced, but still happens.

Possible voltage regulator? Voltmeter moves erratically any time any electrical component is used: locks, windows, signals( R signal doesn't even work anymore....)

Plastic headlight lenses cracked and brown - replaced.

I can't even think of it all right now!

General comments?

I love my car for its comfort and power, but it's cost me a fortune in repairs.

BEWARE THE PAINT!!! I have no idea what's causing this, the dealer says it's normal - yeah right. Maybe normal for Ford...

The head light lenses can be cleaned with the polish cleaner used on motorcycle windshield

It removes the cloud from the lenses

Lights are brighter after cleaning

And they look a lot better too!
