I haven't heard that.
If anything the Post97 years are more problematic... What with the horribly made MTX trannies with the wear 3rd gear syncros and terribly fragile Differentials. Best year contour to get is a 95 SE. Either way, the only BIG problem with the zetec engine is replacement of the timing belt, which usualy goes for about 100K miles... possibly more if the engine has been old man driven for years and years. Besides, a timing belt is becoming a regular maitenence thing on I4 engines.
