Any info would...

    Issue with E-Brake freezing up?

    Same info as most above, I stopped using it in the cold weather, I refuse to pay the dealer to install parts that they won't guarantee will cure the problem or stand behind. Kind of a shame though, the first two winters I owned the car there was no problem.

    Hand brake cable

    tilt wheel

    Does anyone have a problem with their tilt wheel coming loose? It also can be wiggled up and down during normal driving when lever is tight, had this problem since day one.

    Hand brake cable

    I know that there is a TSB regarding the problem of the hand brake not releasing in the cold weather, my question is this. Does anyone know if Ford Service will cover this $300 repair for an out of warranty vehicle? My warranty ended in November and as luck would have it problem didn't start...
