I was told by local dealers that the 1) parts were not available for vehicles already paid for... 2) ford is only responsible for notification of part failure and is not required to repair the failure (even though i am still under warranty... 3)part failure notices were held even though the dealers knew there was a problem, because parts were not available. |
