You're right - and Ford's response on the Windstar is a realistic view of how far consumer law has come, as well as expectations of modern vehicles. When I was a kid, a 10 year old car likely had a number of rust holes, if not worse (my family had a '76 Vega - so I know just how bad unibody rust can get). Problems like the Windstar's rear axle and front subframe wouldn't have been unexpected for a decade-old car in that era.
