 I have several issues, both back door windows have fallen off track and won't stay up. this happened in september of 07 and a few months later the second rear window did the same. i have to use clear packaging tape to hold them up. the key to the ignition will not turn unless i use something with a hard end and tap it several times. when the ignition problem first happened in september of 2006 i called ford road side service and they recommended tapping the key several times and said they had a growing complaint of this. my trunk lock latch often gets stuck too. jan of 2003 the radio shorts in and out, i never know if it's going to stay on. lastly the passenger rear door look doesn't latch, i think this happened in late 2003 or early 2004. *tr

 There was a strong smell coming out of the air conditioner vents in the warm months. that i describe as a urine odor. the dealership installed a fan in the air conditioner that comes on 15 minutes after the car is turned off to dry out the air unit.
