I had to replace one on my 98...at 106k...it's a maintenance thing. They just won't last forever...occasionally one will go dry, that's when it needs replacement.

BTW...it's truly easy and no big deal to replace them...buy from an auto parts store that sells good quality parts (cheaper than Ford!) and do it yourself.

Hope this helps.
