Count me in too - wife's 2001 Windstar SE van had the engine cradle bust yesterday evening on the passenger side just like the original poster. I'm going to get it fixed but wonder if I should contact Ford, the NHTSA or my insurance company to file a claim? My wife and 3 little girls were in the van when it happened and LUCKILY it happened leaving a shopping center instead of on the freeway at 75 mph! However it let loose right in the middle of a busy light and traffic was tied up for 45 minutes on a Friday afternoon!
Any thoughts? We can't be the only ones! PLEASE CHECK under your vans!!!
Here's what a new Windstar engine cradle looks like from the dana.com website:
