Legal issue or just unfortunate experience

I'm not sure if the laws have changed, but back in the early '90s, my parent's '88 T-Bird just barely missed the lemon law. It was something like, the car had to have gone back to the dealer like 10-12 times in the first 2-3 years of owning the car. There may be different types of lemon laws depending on how new the car is, and how long the owner has had it. Just demand that Ford fixes everything! Since you just bought the car, they should take care of you.
