          Not on a Ford car, but the retractable antenna on my 1989
Oldsmobile was *never* broken but finally it jammed and had to be
replaced a few months ago...at about 160,000 miles.
          How would vandals break a properly operating retractable
antenna unless they did it while you were playing the radio?  It is
retracted unless you have the radio on.
