| Description of the problem | First, i crank my vehicle and allow to engine to warm approximately 3-5 minutes each day as usual. Once i begin driving a "loud humming" or unusual noise happens usually once i reach 30-40 miles per hour. This will happen several times during my driving time, and then cease all of a sudden. I am very disappointed with this issue because i just purchased vehicle on june 20, 2014 and now i am having issues with it. I was able to finally get into my local dealer (point of purchase also) to get a tech to ride with me because no lights come on during noise time. I am very frustrated with estabrook ford in pascagoula right now. I called on july 17 to set up "check" for vehicle, but was told that they were very busy and could not check it until next week. I scheduled to have a leave vehicle at dealer overnight and return next morning so that tech could ride with me to "listen" for noise. Upon arrival, i was told that they tried to call me to reschedule because 3 techs and oil changer guy had walked off job. Well, this is untrue because i have had same number for 2 years, and have taken my vehicles in for oil change, etc. I told them that i could not take off work to bring vehicle back and i waited for tech to ride with me. Tech rode with me (very nice guy) and heard sound. He stated that it sounds like transmission because the noise occurs during shifting. They scheduled me to return vehicle this wednesday after i get off work (august 5) to put it on rack to attempt to repair problem. My other issue is with ford corporation! I am very frustrated to know that i may have ongoing issues with a "new purchase." |
