Relocating the TFI would be a hassle but it's possible.

I received a notice from Ford that they we're settling the lawsuit by agreeing to extend the factory warrantee to 100,000 miles on all affected Fords (including Mustangs).

Too late for me, I have 115,000!

The notice said that if you've replaced the TFI module at less than 100,000 miles, to send documentation (even if you were towed or had it replaced at a shop) and they would reimburse you for all costs. You have to agree to have your car inspected at a dealership - at Ford's option.

I replace mine (with a factory replacement) as a precaution, back in '99. I don't have a receipt but they can check it out physically at a dealer, as long as I get my money back.

I urge anyone who got this notice to fill it out and take advantage of the deal, for what it's worth.

A factory warrantee extension is a good deal and even getting your money back if you replaced the TFI already (as I have) is not too shabby - and better than any vehicle manufacturer usually gives any owner. Take it.
