michaelhardy Member 104 Member For: 15y 5m 13d Posted 16/07/10 10:26 PM Author Share Posted 16/07/10 10:26 PM dropped the car off yesturday, they fitted the new diff and guess what? that one was defective as well... now the car will at the dealers untill tuesday and ford wont give me a replacement car. So how can I work next week?? rang ford crc, what customer relations? spoke to someone I could hardly understand, he spoke to someone else and they said no car. Basically we stuffed up but tough luck... I guess its a case of, well we are a big company and we dont care about you, the falcon is the only ute in this style and size that you can put a tray on, so you cant go anywhere else, so tough.... If I could put a tray on a v8ss Expensive Daewoo I would get one.. Im so pooed off with the ford service and quality control..... Oh and dont get me started on the brakes...............

Its 15,000 old now been modded for most of that and if I picked on every little thing that worried me about the car it would have spent most of its life in the shop. If it aint broke dont fix it...

Mates can hear it in there car driving next to me. It sounds the same almost but with more of a hum to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typicle ford dealership. I hope it breaks and I right my car off. Surely there is a law suit there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelhardy Member 104 Member For: 15y 5m 13d Posted 19/07/10 08:07 AM Author Share Posted 19/07/10 08:07 AM ute is still in the workshop, it would appear that ford didnt send off the new diff on friday, hopefully it left today. ford customer center hopeless promised to ring back and let me know when it would be fixed, but didnt. as to a loan car forget it, not their problem. even though they sent a broken diff. looks like the next stop will be a letter to fair trading, why should I be out of pocket because of their stuff up... watch out if the diff doesnt arrive tomorow... gonna rip someones ear off..........but they wont care...
