Ford buy-back/replacement

[lemers]

Well you're wrong. It applies to everyone who owns a GT350, of any trim.

A few of you guys have become ridiculous in the way you cruise into other threads and try to turn everything you see into a tech pack argument....especially bitterly following people around who you don't agree with...this screams of strife and insecurity. Are you angry that people have an opinion that's different than yours? You really think your decision to buy a tech pack is the same or even close to a cracked block? Don't answer that - let's leave this thread to it's original topic.

Again Limp Mode that occurs on a Tech/base car and the discussion if they should get help from Ford does not apply to all GT350s. But YOU, Zitro, Firestarter, and a few others found it very entertaining to occupy those threads. So, yes you were "cruising" those threads and turning every discussion into "ford shouldn't support base/tech owners.

as far as people having a different opinion, I really don't care. Ya'll seem to be the ones that want everyone to conform to your limp mode opinion and now this small crack opinion.

Finally, I do find the limp mode issue and cracked block issue different in the fact that one was miss represented and covered up by Ford and I find them the same in the fact that if the OP's argument for getting limp mode fixed was that the problem had to occur under street condition then the same should be true for his crack. By his logic, he should only get a new engine if his car suffers a problem while driving legally on the street.

You have seriously confused me with someone else or just lumped all opinions that do not line up with yours and singled me out. LOL You are seriously twisting words.
"ford shouldn't support base/tech owners" never said it.

I forgot that you are the one who takes a discussion about one thing and expands it to everything. Just like when you took the discussion about the warranty on the transmission and applied to the door handle.

you have said that if I hit limp mode on the street then Ford should fix it. So I'm saying that if your engine fails on the street then Ford should fix it. And right now you haven't said that it has failed, so I guess Ford can wait it out until 60,000 miles.

You seem to be arguing out of spite. Not based on merits.

I have some strong and favorable case examples in favor of a buy back in the state of Alabama in which I am a resident. I am curious though of the others that have successfully had their car bought back by Ford regardless of model. Did you all go through arbitration?

1. Yes
2. No

2005 Powerstroke diesel truck which had been in for service 21 times for bed pan oil leaks. EGR coolers and turbo issues during the 6 years I owned it (yes it was lemon-lawed after the original 3/36 warranty, but I had an extended warranty). I called up the Ford customer service hotline, opened a complaint against this truck and they sent me the paperwork. This was a confirmed failure among the 6.0L engine, so it may not be as clear cut for you. If you don't get results through Ford customer service, you'll likely need to reain a lawyer to help plead your case.

Been going thru the Auto line BBB since December. All I can say is have documentaion for everything as Ford will contest everything. If you say the sky is blue they will say its not. Its been a brutal process and thats all I'll say! Good luck!

Why do so many threads need to go this route? Answer the fellas questions or stay the fuck out of the thread.

Jesus, you guys should be embarrassed to be men and you need to inject some more fulfilling hobbies and pastimes into your lives.

Bickering and nattering...fuck me.

OP, based on wait times/litigation, perhaps trading it in to another dealer or selling to carmax and taking a little hit on it might be best? I can't imagine going what you have gone thru already, and then the proposition looking forward of what might happen. 6 months is a long time to have 55k in limbo. Sanity certainly has a price..... maybe cut your losses and start with a clean slate, either with a 17/18 GT350 or another vehicle entirely. Then at least you can go to track attack again if you didn't already

I though of this but how do I sell a vehicle with a cracked block? I am assuming that you mean once the third motor is installed? Wouldn't dealers be able to easily look up a vehicles history?

 

[btown93]

someone like carmax won't have access. PM me your VIN and I can look up your history on ford and send it to you. I dont think sales would check warranty history before an offer.

 

[Zitrosounds]

PM on its way

Sanity does have a price but I think it's a stretch thinking this car is worth 55k with its history and current documented condition. Despite what [MENTION=19878]btown93[/MENTION] comes up this, disclosure is the ethical thing to do.

Again, good luck Harold.

I agree with you, It's not really right thing to do, but it's a bit of a gray area. in the car business, sometimes its up to the buyer and not the seller. Also, now that a claim is in process, it might already be too far down the road. He could also ask the dealer that found the crack what they would do for trade in, explain the whole thing and be upfront about it...and just be clear that you would prefer out of the car...and maybe your dealer and ford together can work with you for a solution. Assuming ford replaces the engine, they will have a car to sell with a new engine and he has a clean slate. I'm not sure I could do it, being an honest person, I don't know what I would do in this situation. Hopefully I never have to find out

So you admit that you're a troll...
You're so one-track-minded - I don't even want to waste my time anymore. Mission accomplished for you guys, I guess. The problem for you is everyone is getting sick of you derailing threads and crying constantly to the point where I don't really care what Ford does for you, if anything. I guess if you cry and bitch enough, maybe you can get your way? Good job?

And yes, AGAIN, for the thick-headed. It has to do with everyone. If people read the one part of the AVAILABLE literature and ignore the rest, then go on to sue Ford over it - you don't think that's going to factor into future offerings? Of course you don't, because you want to have your little pitty party all by yourself and don't want anyone that disagrees with you to speak. God, I'd hate to talk to you in person.

Where did i admit to being a troll? This discussion is about warranties and ive been applying the same points that a group of you have made.

Im as far as derailing thresds, i call BS. Yes i state my view in the 2 threads that were on that topic. And yes ive discussed it some here to illustrate logic that was brought up about how warranties work. But i dont derail every tread. In fact ive asked why people without the trans issue contantly need to go to those threads.

Now that i bring a counter poont to this thread and use their logic Im the bad guy.

I guess your opinions are the only ones that matter.

As far as talking to me for real; why so judgemental? We disagree on this one thing and i dont budge as much as you dont budge. Again i guess other peoples opinions dont matter to you.
