My saga sounds just like the others on this site.
 
I bought a 2005 Ford 500 in July of 2006.  It was the service managers  car 
with 4385 miles never been registered so sold as new.  In one month the  
dashboard computer had to be changed.  While on vacation everything on the  
dashboard went out.  They replaced it but when replacing it for whatever  reason they 
put the wrong mileage on it in my favor but still.  Just a few  months later I 
startedm hearing noises from the front end loud creaking-they  changed the 
struts, crank bar lose bolts etc.  Guess what a week later the  noise is back 
but this time opposite side - same thing again they repaired  it.  While driving 
home I heard the noise again brought it back and they  said it was now the 
rear struts etc.  While waiting for the parts to come  in my gas guage stopped 
working yet again.  Now I bring it back and they  say they are going to repair 
the one side I demanded that they repair  both.  Ok they are now the car has 
been there 4 days and they just called  that it was ready.  2minutes later they 
called back and said they heard the  noises again.  They replaced the chip in 
the computer for the gas guage so  I hope that works.  But I still do not 
have my car.  Ford is useless  they actually told me to go for the lemon law.
