I have not had good luck, however all of the cost so far has been picked up via extended warranty. When people ask me this question, my response is always: It is a car, things break and need to be repaired just like any other car, however it is generally more expensive to repair than a Ford( or insert other "normal" make car here.)

My car is now in the shop with possible serious engine damage/issues. It will be looked at tomorrow before I know for sure. I guess I pissed off the car gods or didn't knock on wood after I posted this...oh well what can you do.

At the risk of sounding stupid, what is the IMS failure you guys keep mentioning.
