The Taurus alternator and 2 speed e-fan come to mind as the two most common parts that people pickup from junkyards and slap them on to their cars.
Pros: common junkyard part

When I had my Ford Raptor tuned I went with these as recommended by the tuner and they have been superb
Pros: superb performance
Vehicle:
Ford
FWIW, the red stuff that Ford puts in at the dealership works incredibly well, much better than the blue stuff from the part store.
Pros: works incredibly well
Cons: better than blue stuff
Vehicle:
Subaru
Had the same issue with my -07 Volvo v50 (it has a ford engine). Swapped the alternator and the problem was gone.
Pros: problem was gone
Vehicle:
Volvo V50
Just pick up the Ford equivalent. Cheaper and more accessible.
Pros: cheaper, more accessible
Part number: VC-10-A2
Went for the second look at the Falcon today, I bought it for $600. The owner got the starter solenoid so we were able to start it and it ran up to temp without pissing coolant. It runs rough, but that was because it needed plugs and the rest of the tune-up items.
Pros: ran up to temp
Cons: runs rough
Vehicle:
Ford
I hate that my 2016 Focus needs to go to the dealership for recoding just to replace the damn headlights.
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Had one... that 2.3 was bad about the cam getting flat lobes on the rear of cam... due to the tilt of the engine, and the oil feed from the front.... as the oil cooled down, the sludge would wax out and settle in the rear of the oil galley, therefore cutting off oil to the rear lobes and followers.
Cons: cam getting flat lobes
Vehicle:
Ford Courier
Ford: the rear driveshaft blew up.
Pros: drove a couple weeks
Cons: rear driveshaft blew up
My uppers were trashed on my ranger but my lowers weren’t far behind. A ford ball joint can’t hang with the weather.
Cons: poor durability, weather sensitive
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
