Description of the problem | Car was showing some potential problems with transmission. Intention was to get a transmission flush and fill, spark plugs replaced. After plugs replaced, repair shop took for test drive on local streets. Then it died. Towed back to shop, wouldn't restart. Examined it and found flywheel detached. Towed over to ford authorized dealership. They called today and said need to replace flywheel, torque converter, and oil pump to the tune of $5300! I internet searched this and found many complaints. Ford issued a recall for this on 2017 models, but not 2016. The replacement parts are the same yet ford will not repair this at their expense. Makes no sense, same parts! Is there any way to get ford to re-look at this? I shouldn't have to pay for a part defect like the bolts that failed to hold the flex plate on! |
