2015-2016 Tech Pack and Base GT350 Cooler Solution Discussion

[Caballus]

YOU may of not said you want it for free. But read this thread start to finish and tell me that is not said a lot.

In any conversation descenting(pretty sure that is spelled wrong) opinions are of value.

As a car guy I want any car owner with issues to get them resolved. I also have been on forums since the late 90s and I know what happens.

I think I saw someone sell their car because of the LIMP issue who never experience it them selves. LEMERs has never driven his car.

If you approach FP and say you want a solution and you are willing to pay for it (maybe assuming you get warranty coverage) or whatever

OR

If you say my car is defective I was mislead I want a fix for free

OR

You threaten a class action suit

Do you think each of those approaches will net the same results?

Im just saying what other people think.

It should not be free, because it was already paid for. So, it is more appropriately stated to say that there should be no additional cost to make the car perform as advertised. If coolers are the only way to fix it, then there should be no additional cost for those. If a magic potion will fix it, then there should be no additional cost for that. Whatever it takes to make the car capable of "sustained high speeds" was already paid for--in full! The car should also be capable of a single track session that allows it to keep pace with "lesser" variants, like the GT. That is a capability that was already paid for. Period.

Ive owned several corvettes with no issues. Camaro no issues. Shelby GT 500 no issues..... where are you getting this crap from ???There are several new coupes from Japan that look interesting. There are a ton of choices in the coupe market.

NO issues is no ISSUE. Can you say you have 0?

My experience is when you have a Toyota and you say you have had no issues you have had "0" issues. When you have had a Chevy and say you have had no issues what is often really being said you have a couple but they are minor.

If years of unreliable cars, safety recalls, and a poor dealer network havent done it. This wont, this wont even register.

I feel bad for the users who limp on the street, because the people who want to track their techs have made this a shit show. You want FORD to give you the coolers you didn't pay for FREE so you can track you cars? GTFO

LEMERS insert meme

since you changed your statement after I replied to it before... I never said "Free". I did say "ford shouldn't profit from this" and "if ford leaves it to me to fix, I won't buy another ford product".

I believe both of those are more reasonable than someone with no issue with their car trolling those who do.

I not blindly loyal to Ford.

Ask and you shall receive

If the "track" pack had a cost. And the 2017 went up in price with the only inclusion being the "track" pack. I dont understand how you can think you paid for it?

Language is important and once you leave this collection of like minded people you have to justify the word "broken" "fix"

The same way a GT owner paid for the ability to drive at sustained high speeds and for a single track session. Simple.

Thanks for the linguistics advice.

I have no horse in the game so Im actually unbiased. I think they should offer the coolers for the price difference between the the 2016 and the 2017 so like 3K WITH a warranty. I think that is the right thing to do.

If you bought the car for use in Germany they should buy it back.

I bought the car for use, period. Should not matter where on the face of the earth it is used, especially since part of the advertisement was based on Ring performance. Again, not asking for free coolers. Asking that the car perform as well as a GT. Simple. Thanks. Done.

But now because if the Tech issue with GT 350s? are you leaving FORD for??

BMW has made horrible unreliably cars for 20 years they are doing fine especially since everyone leases them new.

As enthusiasts you have very few options. 911 are nice but expensive and you have the IMS issues on the old ones(i dont know if that hurt sales). Toyota makes nothing of interest except maybe the GT 86 which is under powered. Honda hasnt made a sports car in years. The WRX STI is over priced with a 10 year old engine.

If you go domestic they all have issues with reliability.

Im just happy someone is making something that is still interesting. Thats how desperate its gotten

Who said I was leaving Ford or selling my GT350? I'm currently not even close to it. I actually drove a 17 Carrera S before I bought this car fully expecting to leave my M4 there and drive the 911 home. I have never been so disappointed in a car in my life.

Any way, if Ford continues to not give a shit and have horrible dealer experience/customer service, I will look elsewhere for my next car. Only the ultimate fan boys of all brands don't.

I had 5 BMWs and and had very few problems with them. Nothing major and nothing that left me stranded. I could beat the shit out of my M3 or M4 and it wouldn't even register an uptick on the temp gauges much less near any kind of limp mode.

I agree with your last line, which is why I have this car and am going to make it work one way or another.

Ford never listed a Ring time for the Tech model.

So you're the spokesperson and consciousness for all of humanity?
Sorry, not buying your arguement most of us are looking for a handout. You're obfuscating the issue and passing value judgements on people you don't know.
