Description of the problem | I have had a recall on the gas tank. The brake line, the sliding door ,the springs on this vehicle. Now ford is telling me they didn't recall this engine just extended the warranty to 100,000 miles/7 years which ever comes first and of course i missed this by 6 months. I've called and i was told it will be over 1500. 00 to repair the vehicle but that there is an flaw within the engine that could occur again. My wife was stuck at a rest stop with our 7 month old until i could pcik her up. She was on the way down to mineapolis/st. Paul for a visit and of course didn't make. It. Dt |
