| Description of the problem | First complaint on august 21/19. To hagerstown ford dealership that this truck does not operate correctly! The hardshift cluck, using oil 1qt low at 2400 miles, warping dash, rattling sounds bad.(like values rattling) my door latches freeze.. I have now as of 12/23/19 have added a total of 5qts of oil to this truck with only just over 5000 miles on it. You can smell burned oil coming from under the hood and exhaust. I have several video documentation to my statement! I spoke with larry when the truck was dropped off in november to have dash replaced for a week,to call me and tell me they didn't have the correct dash? I have contacted larry in regards to this vechile oil use is unreal!!! No new vechile goes through oil like this! I am told to keep adding oil.. Why are you not covering the oil, it's under warranty? This truck is by far the worst vechile i have ever owned!!!!! I feel i'm getting the run around n if something isn't resolve soon i will take further action. So i've also been advise that the oil backflow that's burning out the exhaust the filters will have oil consumption through them as well!! Did i get a lemon! I think so! |
