| Description of the problem | My vehicle had to be serviced three times at three separate dealerships last year. Due to an electrical issue. This issue caused the dashboard to shut off even while driving, making it impossible to determine speed and fuel level. The ac would also go out and the windows ceased to work. If the truck was running when this occurred it would continue to function but without electrical functions. Once the truck was turned off, it could not be restarted. My vehicle had to be towed three times for repairs. The first occurrence was in dry creek, la (60min from my house), the second occurred in new orleans, la just prior to a business meeting (3 hours from home), and the third time occurred with my family in our home town of lake charles. Bolton ford made it seem it like it was me who caused the problem. The truck hasn't had an issue yet but we shall see. Dealing with ford concerning this issue was an ordeal i hope i never have to repeat. I still don't know what was wrong with the truck since three different dealerships conducted three different repairs. |
