Description of the problem	Was stalled out several times during the month of january and february of this year. It would just stop responding. It acted much like a transmission going out, but that was not the problem. After multiple towes and trips to the mechanic to attempt getting this vehicle repaired, it was determined that the pcm had gotten water inside and had to be replaced. I spent several thousand dollars trying to get this vehicle to run as well as it had before. Once the pcm issue was discovered, it did run much better, but by this time i had lost my faith in the vehicle. I cannot believe that ford positioned a computer component where water would run down onto it, and they have not been forced to fix this issue. As a result of all of my problems with this vehicle, after many years of being a ford owner, i sold this van and purchased a chrysler town & country.
