Description of the problem | Lehigh valley ford replaced the recalled headgasket and the problems started then. The check engine light came on, i took it back to the same dealer they replaced the computer for $400. The check engine light came on again. They took in they replaced the computer again, but they said there was still a problem they decided to without asking to replace the main electrical harness. I picked my van up today, the nice people there asked to test drive for a week and then come back to discuss the charges. I have to admit that l. V. Ford are very good people to deal with but i don't feel it is fair to be charged anything after i found out that there was a recall on the same harness, and before replacing the headgaskit i did not face any problem with the van, i am not saying these problems related to that in any way. |
