Hi,

We have a 2008 Turbo ute, and the engine has died. Ford are washing their hands of any responsibility and not willing to cover on warranty. Has anyone else experienced issues like this?

:wavey: Tell us more...like what did you do to the engine.when saying died....did you overheat it or something..........

HI mate,

Yeah, we'll need some more information to help you out more...

Is it a BF MKII or an FG? Did you buy it new? Is it modified? Shouldn't be out of warranty... :wavey:

If it is stock

Go to hardware store and buy a 8x4 sheet of plywood and a tin of paint. Create a sign saying -

MOTOR STUFFED

NO WARRANTY

BUILT FORD ROUGH

$ 40000 LEMON

Drag your ute outside dealership, include your phone no.

Also put a small sign inside car on dashboard saying "awaiting mechanical repairs", this should avoid any parking tickets.

You've nothing to lose- trust me this will get results.

A mate had a new home built that leaked every time it rained. He tried for months to get leaks fixed, but builder kept giving him the run-around. He made a similar sign, the builder rang him and said" remove sign" his reply was "which one? I've made about two dozen can't remember where they all are".

Leaks were fixed within a week.

Good luck mate
