Description of the problem | Purched vehicle march 6th 2015. Got the extended warrenty since then the transmission was fixed 3 times and now the electronic assist steering went out while pulling in my drive making me hit mailbox and make dent in hood of car. Called 3 different dealers and all 3 said sorry that's not on recall even thou the same steering is used on other ford vehicles and are on recall. My warrenty oz up and can not afford to fix transmission and steering. The transmission was moved out to a 5 year 10k mile warrenty. Like i said they fixed under warrenty 3 times. This car is a lemon and i have no choice but to send it back and hopefully not be charged for the car. |
