Exactly. I do realize that test drives are sometimes required, but never 88 miles worth. I also feel like it's just opening an entire cans worth of liability for the dealership, but clearly don't care.
And that is exactly what I am planning on doing. Again, by reporting this dealership, I'm hoping to bring light to Ford HQ in regards to their malpractice, as well as to possibly prevent having anyone else deal with their service, or absolute lack thereof.
I am in fact planning on taking my...
You are correct. And that's essentially my plan. I honestly just want the headache to be done with. The sad thing is I never thought that I would fall "out of love" with this car, and was planning to make it my super build. But since the whole ordeal started, it's hard to view it in the same...
People on this forum have such compassion it's amazing. It's a matter of principles, something clearly lacking in today's world. And as stated multiple times already, the "88 miles" issue was just one of MANY other larger issues (including lack of warranty service that eventually led to critical...
It's just sad that you honestly can't trust anyone anymore. No one has any respect or honor these days. It would never cross my mind to take someone else's car for a serious spin without their consent. That's why I like the performance shop that I use. Not only do they do great work, but they're...
Funny, majority of my car friends are Mexican, and the few I've spoken to about the issue said that they would be pissed too (putting it lightly). But you just had to throw the race card, huh?
Also, I'm not doing so with the hopes of compensation. Like I said, my car is being re-purchased by RAV. If I were Ford, I would want to know about these kinds of issues with shitty dealers, as they tarnish the "Ford" name/brand. Image is everything to a business. I would never allow this kind...
As I replied to someone else, I actually started having issues with my transmission, shortly after this incident. At the time, I had no idea why my transmission was suddenly having problems. Now I'm starting to see what may have been the cause.
Ah yeah. I usually do the majority of it on my own, but seeing as it was already in the shop I figured I might as well have them do so. But thank you, much appreciated. Car is being bought back by Ford, so it will be the first time since buying my first car (08 V6 Mustang) that I won't have a...
I had a neighbor with a '14 5.0 with "14P51GT" for a plate. I always thought it was really clever, and I'm sure that the majority of people would just see it as a "basic" (aka somewhat random numbers and letters) plate.
As I originally posted, I have had a LOT more issues with this specific dealer. This one I was unaware of until today, so it's more like "icing on the cake". So it's really not "just" the 88 miles. Its a bunch of other shit that I have gone into detail in some of my other posts in regards to...
Seeing as it was ticking like a madman prior to the repairs, and was silent (albeit only for around 150 miles) after the repairs, I think 3 miles would be plenty, ESPECIALLY as it was recommended to break the engine in again for the first 500 miles after repairs.
I always forget about the Ford Pass App. Never used it. Probably should have. I have caught another dealership doing shit (or actually not doing any work to my car as it sat in the same spot for a week, despite them claiming to have "looked into my engine") thanks to my dash cam that installed a...
I would, but the car was (is) under warranty, so it is Ford's responsibility to fix the issue. I would love to bring it to another shop (such as the performance shop that I use), but I don't feel like spending a few hundred or thousand dollars in repairs that are supposed to be covered by my...
They didn't. Turns out that they actually lied to me, said the issue was from the intake manifold (which I knew wasn't possible). The next dealership asked me if I ever had a CEL. Told them no. They then told me that Perry put in to the Ford system (Oasis I think?) that I had a CEL on my car, so...
It's out of the ordinary when the service tech told me that the car didn't even budge from the lot, as well as the fact that they changed the mile "in" on the paper work. Also, it's really not ordinary for a dealership to do so. In your case, that may be fair for your specific problem. That...
