Glad you got yourself taken care of. Hopefully you didn’t sign a release without payment first.

Yeah it was a joke, hence the “lol” at the end of it.

Grieco put out a hit on me to shut me up.

nah though, after a lot of back and forth they have agreed to reimburse me. I’m not holding my breath until I have a check in hand.

So how did you get around them trying to shut you up?

Skip the dealer visit. You can buy a Ford Premium Care ESP direct from Ford online.
Finally got off my butt and checked into this. Cost is $2,075 for 48k miles/2026 or another $500 to extend out to 60k miles, which I don't think I'll need. They even offer 0% APR to "finance" with $207.50 down and 207.50 (Edit...bad numbers) 103.75/month for 18 months.
I guess my only question would be why not just wait until Ford's basic new car warranty (which covers almost everything the powertrain warranty doesn't) runs out to make the purchase, since it looks like the clock on the Premium Care ESP starts ticking right when you buy it, negating the basic coverage you already have?
Anyone have experience with this?

Because the cost skyrockets once outside OEM. I don't remember the exact numbers but I vaguely remember ~$3,700 for 5 year 70k coverage... And that was 5 years from the model year.

Ye
I submitted a contact form on the corporate website and I got a call from somebody in Rhode Island today who said she’s going to reach out to the GM of the Fort Lauderdale dealership and try to come to some resolution. Will see what happens here!
Yea they are also up in Ri. And Ma. Their reputation is far from stellar there too!

I wonder if they are related to Grieco up here in Raynham MA where the markup on GT500's is 17k for the non CFTP and over 35k for the CFTP
Yes. The same bozo’s! They are 15 minutes from me in Ma. and I have also talked to them down in Ft. Lauderdale.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone.

I’m not allowed to say anything else about this other than the issue was resolved .

Please don’t interpret the following emojis as any indication about the outcome:

I can appreciate it if you “can’t say anything else” To be honest though I know I would never agree to something like that after having to go as far as you did to even get anywhere. Hope all goes well going forward.
Where you are I would go to Steeda for anything.

I went to all that trouble SO that I could get to the point where I’m not allowed to say anything about the outcome. That was the whole point.
