(apart from the diff) Its as if Ford time all these things to fark up as soon as ya warranty finishes so they can get more $$ from ya.. Most of the stuff has been fixed, its just annoying.Now just waiting for something else to let go and need replacing LOL..Your not alone....

mic Donating Members 1,725 Member For: 16y 11m 20d Gender: Male Posted 09/01/09 11:07 AM Share Posted 09/01/09 11:07 AM of course its gonna happen at 100,000klm cos that's when your warranty expires. (or 105). that's why they do a sht job servicing, cos they know it will still last 105k - when the warranty expires !! scheduled ford servicing extends your warranty but kills your vehicle quicker !! they plan this sht !!!
