This appears to still be a problem in wine v1.6.2.  I have Ford Information
Viewer 2.7 and have crafted a workaround by changing the line in the
.wine/drive_c/FORD/PUBS/programs/info1.ini (after running INSTALL.EXE from the
CD with wine) from
*=REMOVEABLE,*,any CD-ROM Drive
to
D=FIXED,*,any CD-ROM Drive (use the appropriate drive letter from dosdevices
that points to your CD/DVD drive)

This allows the program to read my DVD drive.  Here's my dosdevices directory:

drwxrwxr-x 2 mike mike 4096 Mar 12 10:04 .
drwxrwxr-x 4 mike mike 4096 Mar 12 10:04 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mike mike   10 Mar 11 17:31 c: -> ../drive_c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mike mike   19 Mar 12 10:04 d: -> /media/mike/00TRK19
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mike mike    8 Mar 11 17:32 d:: -> /dev/sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 mike mike    1 Mar 11 17:31 z: -> /

This is not a fix, but will allow one to read the service information for one's
vehicle.  I am running this on Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS with kernel 3.13 on x86_64.
