 Up for sale is our 2000 Ford Windstar, we have owned this vehicle for almost three years it has been very dependable and driven daily.
The engine runs great and the transmission shifts smoothly, this would make a good second vehicle with 7 passenger seating capacity.
As with any vehicle used regularly there are a few things I need to mention. This van is 13 years old and has various dings, scratches and blemishes
to prove it. In addition we live in northern PA where our vehicles take a daily salt bath in the winter whether they need it or not. As a result there is some rust forming
on the rockers, including one hole (see picture) and around the rear wheel wells. With that said this van is still in good condition, but not perfect. All the
recall work that I am aware of has been preformed by the dealer, including Fords cruise control problem, and the frame and axle work Windstars were recalled
for. There are a couple of issues, the front door  power locks do not lock or unlock the 2 front doors, the other locks work fine. The passenger sliding door
does not open from the inside, it is a plastic clip that has broken and does not hold the cable in place.I've fixed it twice, its good for awhile and comes loose again.
The backup lights are on when the transmission is in park, I had to replace the neutral safety switch 6 months ago and didn't get it adjusted just right, but it shifts
and drives just fine. New battery 08/12, new front tires 10,000 miles ago, back tires are 40-50%. PA inspection till 08/13.
This vehicle does need rear brakes, oil change and the plenum kit installed on the intake manifold. As you can see from my code reader 0171 & 0174 are the only
2 codes showing. If you google it those 2 codes indicate a breakdown of the rubber grommets holding the intake manifold to the top of the engine, when that happens
it allows oil to seep out and additional air to be drawn in throwing the codes. I was going to fix it when the weather got better, it hasn't yet. I use about a quart of oil
between changes, I found I could live with that.     http://leckemby.net/windstar/windstar01.html    This is a link to a web page the describes the procedure. I was planning
on buying a "Kit" with the necessary parts from Carquest I assume others have them as well. Ford also seems to have a problem with some of their ABS lights and this
van is no exception the light does not stay on but does come on occasionally, and then it will stay off and trouble free for several weeks, I suspect it is a wheel sensor but I'm not
sure which one. That about does it. This has been a good van and is in good shape, I just don't want anyone to get any surprises, if you have questions please ask if you are local
come and look/drive. I will work with anyone you choose as shipper or will do my best to accommodate you if you decide to pickup. Yes we could reach an agreement on the rear
brakes, if you intend to drive this any distance. The rear hatch looks like it was replaced by the previous owner I didn't realize that until I took the license plate off and saw the
salvage yard mark. It looks like some one tried to cover it up with some spray paint which is probably why I didn't notice it till I removed the plate.  Thanks and good luck.
