The Ford Freestar was a minivan that was manufactured by the Ford Motor Company. It replaced the Ford Windstar for the 2004 model year. Although it is billed as "all new", it basically was a revamped Windstar. It had different headlights and taillights. The body was similar to the Windstar. The name change accommodated Ford's strategy to rename their cars to words beginning in F. The Freestar, along with its twin, the Mercury Monterey, were both built in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
The Freestar offered a place for up to seven passengers, it featured an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic transmission as the part of the van's standard equipment, and was available with two gasoline-powered V6 engines. The smaller 3.9 L developed a maximum power of 193 hp (144 kW) at 4500 RPM and 240 ft·lbf (325 N·m) of torque at 3750 RPM, while the larger 4.2 L offered a power of 201 hp (150 kW) at 4,250 rpm and 263 ft·lbf (357 N·m) of torque at 3650 RPM.
Sales of the Freestar and Monterey have been slow in the United States, but sells in higher volumes in Canada (despite that the Monterey isn't available in Canada). Ford will reportedly replace the Freestar with the retro-styled Ford Flex three-row sport wagon in 2009.
The Freestar used code A5 in the 5th and 6th positions of the VIN.
