Ford 2017 f250 diesel

I'll start this with I've bee a long time Ford loyalty customer. If you look at my purchase history; I've purchased more new Ford vehicles in the past 15 years than most people purchase in their entire life. I've been very happy with Ford, right up until I purchased a 2013 F150 King Ranch ecoboost. At 50, 000 miles I was left stranded on a trip with a bad fuel pump ($1100.00). I had to rent a vehicle, then return to St Augustine, FL to pick my truck up prior to returning home. At about 52, 000 miles, I had to replace the front brakes ($5575.00), to include the rotors. The dealership asked if I towed a lot; I had yet to tow anything with the truck and 95% of the miles were highway. At about 55, 000 miles the right front spindle bearing went bad ($750.00). At approximately $56, 000 miles, I walked out to start my truck and it wouldn't start ($3250.00). Dealership had to re-program my computer. Two months or so later, my truck wouldn't start again after sitting in my driveway for the weekend ($1500.00). This time the PCM, O2 Sensor and 3 spark plugs had to be replaced. Cost of the truck was $58, 000.00

Now I have a new 2017 Ford F250 King Ranch Diesel, $76, 000.00. It has 3552 miles on it, and is only 1.5 months old; I've only paid one payment on it. It's in the shop because my Service Engine Light came on. The dealership says that they are receiving a temperature sensor warning. They have followed Fords instructions, and now the truck must sit for 24 hours to test it again to ensure Fords fix worked. Unfortunately, I'm going on the military trip tomorrow, which is when I need my truck. I call Ford (King Colonial in Brunswick, GA), and ask about a rental; they advise I have to speak with Customer Care; I speak with a very nice lady at customer care, who advises that King's Colonial should have rented the vehicle for me; she speaks with King's Colonial and was advised there are no cars available at the enterprise rental in Brunswick, GA. I'm advised that I have to rent the vehicle myself and then get reimbursed later. ($300.00)

So I call enterprise in Brunswick, GA, they have rental vehicles; I call King's Colonial and am told that to qualify under the rental coverage, they can only rent a Ford vehicle, and they only have their contract through Enterprise in Brunswick, GA. According to Ford Motor Company; Dealerships can only rent Fords for their customers? This makes no sense to me at all. It's a Ford leaving me stranded; it's irrelevant what kind of vehicle I get for a rental, so why should Ford Motor Company care. The job of Ford is to take care of the customer; JOB 1. Or, am I incorrect in believing that I've been purchasing vehicles from a company that cares so little about their customers that they prefer them to get their own rental vehicles and not satisfy the rental coverage promised at the time of the purchase?

I have purchased the equivalent of $269, 000 worth of vehicles from Ford motor Company. This I can guarantee; this will most likely be the last Ford product my family and I purchase in the future. We were looking at Ford Mustangs last week for my wife; we are going to Jacksonville, FL tonight to purchase a Nissan Maxima Platinum.

You can thank your policies and poor workmanship for the Nissan purchase. I'll be certain Coggin Nissan knows why we're purchasing their car and not yours tonight.

BTW; I'll probably trade the 2017 Ford F250 in for a GMC Duramax in the very near future

Very Respectfully

No Longer Loyal Ford Owner

Ford death wauble, terrible miles, backup camera sticks like I am to close to something when there is nothing behind me.

My parents were Ford people. I have always been a Ford person. My F150 2011 was a great truck. We traded in for a 2016 Ford F250 diesel truck because we where pulling a trailer South for the winter this last winter. The mileage has been terrible since I got it. Also this is not the truck I wanted I felt I was forced into this truck by the salesmen and the dealership. when they called for the payoff they got the payoff amount for the jeep we had at the time instead of the F150. When I discovered what had happened I contacted the dealership and they sent the money back for the jeep. The dealership called and got the pay off amount for the truck. By the time they got evrything done I told them I wanted my F150 back. That didnt happen I was supposed to get a great deal for the new one, a cover for the back of the truck supposedly no charge. This truck that was supposed to be a close out ended up costing me 65000.00. I have a serious problem with a vibration in the front which is getting worse plus it sounds like it is falling apart I have complained about this numerous times. They tell me to bring it in when its doing it. I would if it did it long enough or when you slow down or stop it stops. I am afraid to have my grandkids in the truck with me. The fuel mileage is the worst I have ever had, 7 to 10 miles per gallon is rediculos! I always told people by Ford its the best I dont feel I can do that anymore. I live in Helena Mt. and the dealership wont listen to me or do anything about it. Oh also the backup camera sometimes will make the solid noise like I have backed into something even though there is nothing there.

Ford 2012 escape

We have been to 2 ford dealerships and had pictures submitted to Ford Motor Company regarding excessive rear wheel rust on our 2012 Escape. Both service departments agreed that the rust was [premature for a 5 year old vehicle. At their suggestion, we submitted a claim and pictures to Ford and were told we would get no to very minimal assistance. We have purchased Ford vehicles before and even convinced my parents to purchase a Ford Escape. We have been happy until now. We are in the process of purchasing a new vehicle so we can pass the 2012 escape to our daughter. We are so disappointed with the rust issue and have decided not to purchase our next vehicle from ford. We have felt very let down by the company, even after being told by the ford service people at the dealerships that escapes made during 2012 have had many problems with this rust. If the company know this is a flaw in certain vehicles, why would they not feel obligated to fix them? Thought you should know you just lost a loyal customer.

Ford tire rebate issue

Purchased 4 tires under a promotion using Ford Service credit card.Promotion was for $110 rebate. Service writer that wrote up the order stated I would receive rebate by mail. Purchase was made on 7-11-17. Called Ford credit in Sep, they stated they had not received anything from Speedway Ford and the promotion had expired. Talked with Phil Nestlehutt, svc mgr and he stated I should have submitted rebate info online myself. When I purchased the tires the service writer made no mention that I had to do anything, if he had I would have surely done it. I feel it was negligence on their part that I lost the rebate. These comments were submitted to the BBB in Atlanta, GA. They gave Speedway Ford in Griffin, GA. until 11-09-17 to respond and they did not get a response

Ford unethical behavior / sales experience

To whom is may concern,
I have been in the market and shopping for a 2017 Ford Explorer XLT model and actively now due to the extensive rebates available. I have been to three dealerships and just went to Ford of Clermont yesterday evening to view a vehicle I found online. Once I arrived I was politely greeted by Brenden Perry, very prompt and so helpful. He helped me select the vehicle I found online, and advised me up front of a fee from the dealer of $1795 that would be added to the price of vehicle no exceptions. From that point, we started the financing approval process. I had a 2009 Nissan Maxima trade-in to be checked to appraise my trade-in value. Once the results for the trad- in came back I was offered $4, 500, to my surprise, Mullinax of Apopka offered me $5, 800 just two months earlier. I advised Brenden that I wanted more for the trade-in, which was honored. Once the numbers came back with all rebates, incentives, and trade-in applied the payments were too high. Brenden had agreed to take off $1000 for the dealer fee that they said no exceptions on, yet that fee hadn't been reduced in the final numbers presented. I agreed then to run soft credit check to see what my monthly payments would be. Right before the soft credit run however, I showed Brenden an ad from another Ford dealership with the Student/College Rebate -$500 and the First Responder Rebate -$1000, which I am both of these. These additional rebates options were not offered to me, however they honored them. At this point with all my rebates and trade-in the final price wasn't mathematically correct. After Brenden going back and forth to the finance office several times, I advised him that I wanted my monthly payment to not exceed $420 a month @ 72 months. He came back with Ron Gasparedo, the finance manager, to go over the finance terms with me. Once Ron sat down, he advised me that since I had a bankruptcy on my credit that there's a new law stating that the term can only be a maximum of a 5 years not a 6 year term, this being at a normal interest rate. Then when I didn't agree to having a $650 monthly car payment, he proceeds to say that "He can get me a 72 month term, but the interest rate will be so high, that my payments will be up to possibly higher than $650". This made no sense to me. At this point, I felt judged and mistreated because of my history of a bankruptcy. I arrived at the dealership at 1800 hrs when the dealership closes at 2000 hrs. When this financing conversation took place it was 2000 hrs and Ron was not polite and appeared to not want to take the time to close the deal and assist me. I declined the offer all together, as I knew I had been lied to. There's not a new rule or law saying that since I filed bankruptcy I cannot get a 72 month term of financing, and this dealership wasn't willing to take the time to even tell me what my interest rate would be. I feel that I was discriminated against, Ron was very disrespectful, when I was nothing but respectful and a willing buyer in the market for this vehicle. In the end the numbers didn't add up, the time wasn't taken to show my an actual interest rate that I'm eligible for, and I was discriminated and lied to so that employees could go home on time. I hope that other customers are not treated as I was and will be choosing a different Ford dealership to do my business. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Jodi Hall

Ford 2017 ford f-150 king ranch

I am currently in the process of trying to close the deal on a 2017 King Ranch from a dealership in Scranton, PA. It has been 5 weeks and I still cannot take delivery of the truck due to a rear seatbelt recall . This problem has not been corrected since parts are scarce. The timeframe to get this issue fixed is indefinite and weeks continue to pass. The excitement of owning this new truck is fading and I am close to the point of backing out of the deal. This would be my first purchase of a Ford product and I am less than impressed to say the least. I am actually quite surprised that Ford would keep the customer waiting this long and make no effort to correct this issue faster. I am very disappointed in the whole process with absolutely no updates on progress being available to me.
Sincerely
Ryan Volk

Ford ford f150 pickup rear window defogger not covered under premium warranty

There is well known issue with Ford trucks and the rear window defogger failing. Ford will cover the replacement under the original warranty but will not cover it under Premium Warranty. They say because it is glass, they do not cover it, although the glass is perfectly fine, but the grids within the glass fail.

Dealers charging $1900 to replace the glass.

Ford customer treatment by ford dealership

I have been a Ford truck owner for years. I have all my service maintenance done by Ford dealers, and trade my trucks in every five years for a new vehicle. Recent treatment I received from Key Scales Ford in Leesburg, Florida is the poorest customer service I have ever received by any car dealership, anywhere. I will never return to this dealer again, neither for service nor the purchase of my next vehicle, and I will communicate throughout my community the poor treatment I have received. A simple $65 dispute regarding an obvious error by Key Scales service technicians, which I have documented and proven, brought about a string of lies and ridicule from the Key Scales' Service Manager. Below I have outlined my communications in chronological order. I want to emphasize that I have documentation verifying all emails, written notes on every call. Furthermore, the dealership claims to have all recordings of all phone calls, and should have records of my conversations. A summary of complaint is as follows:
• On August 4th I took my truck to Key Scales Ford for its scheduled maintenance. The Service Advisor strongly recommended a tire balancing along with the standard rotation I do each service. This was the first time a tire balancing had ever been suggested. I paid my $221.68 bill for all the work done and left.
• The following Tuesday, August 8th, I left for a month long trip. When I got onto the highway and sped up to 70 mph, the truck shook so badly that I could hardly control the steering. I stopped at a Ford dealership in Ashburn, GA, but they could not take the vehicle until the next day. The service manager referred me to a tire dealer nearby. I went to the dealer, and he checked the balance of the tires, and had to re-balance every tire. He charged me $65, and the truck ran perfectly.
• On August 9th, upon arriving at my destination I sent an email to Key Scales' Service Manager, Brian Collins indicating the problem that I had, and telling him I would like a refund upon my return for the tire balancing done by his people. Mr. Collins claims he never received the email, but I have a copy of it which I am happy to show.
• On September 6th, upon returning from my trip, my wife and I went into Key Scales Ford and met with Mr. Collins. A female accountant, I cannot remember her name, was in the office and witnessed our conversation. I explained the problem with the balancing done by his service people, and requested a reimbursement of the $65 it cost me to have it re-done. Although reluctant, Mr. Collins agreed to reimburse me. Initially he said he would only refund what Key Scales charged me, but then thought that to be petty, and agreed to reimburse me the full $65. He said I should have the check within two weeks.
• On October 2nd I sent Mr. Collins an email asking the whereabouts of my refund. He responded by email, stating that the check would out by the end of the week. I saved the emails.
• On October 9th I sent another email to Mr. Collins asking him the status of my refund. I received no response. I saved the email.
• On October 12th I called and left Mr. Collins a voicemail. I received no call back. I assume Key Scales has a recording of the voicemail.
• On October 16th I again called Mr. Collins and spoke with him. He told me my claim had been lost by the accounting people, but I should receive it the following week.
• On October 23rd I both called Mr. Collins and sent him another email. I got no response. I saved the email.
• On October 24th I called Mr. Collins and spoke with him. He said he sent the request for a check to his Accounting department, and I should receive the check any day.
• On October 26th I called and asked to speak with the Accounting department. I spoke with a Kathy, who was unaware of the issue, but said she would check and call me back. To her credit, she called me back and said the check was awaiting the signature of the authorized individual.
• On November 6th, I received a voicemail from Key Scales Accounting saying my check was ready, but they needed me to verify my address. I returned their call, verified my address, but come to find out that the check was for $53.11 (something like that) rather than the $65 it actually cost me to have the problem fixed. I was transferred to Mr. Collins, who contradicted what he originally told me (his accountant was present) that he would not be petty, and reimburse me for the entire $65. I complained, and Mr. Collins' exact words were "If you need the $12 so badly, I will take it out my pocket and give it to you." I said ok, and asked him to give it to the accounting people so that they could send it with my check. He then got belligerent and said I would have to come to the dealership and take it out of his hand!
I would like to make a few points about this whole mess. I would never have incurred the additional $65 to rebalance my tires if Mr. Collins' service department had done their job originally. I believe I am entitled to the entire reimbursement (not the $53.11 that is being refunded), which Collins initially agree to, witnessed by both my wife and a female Key Scales' accountant. Second, it is unbelievable that any business would string a good customer along for three months for such a minor issue. To make matters worse, the total lack of follow-up from Mr. Collins is inexcusable. Finally, I was deeply insulted by Collins' remark that "if you need the $12 so badly, I will give it to you." Condescension like that is unjustified, inflammatory, and totally without class. I realize that there will be no further action on this case, but I am done with Key Scales Ford forever. As a loyal Ford customer, I think that people in the Ford corporate office should know how their customers can sometimes be treated.

First Email
Brain, here is the email I sent as soon as I got to my destination on 8/9. Thank you for meeting with me this morning, and understanding my position. I will await the reimbursement.

Subject: tire balancing

I had my F-150 truck in for service last Friday, August 4. I had an oil change service, and tire rotation, and some type of engine flush. The service person informed me that the tires would also be balanced, which was the first time in ten years and two ford trucks that the tires were balanced during a tire rotation. I drove home, and left for a long trip on Tuesday morning. The truck drove fine on regular roads, but when I got onto the highway and sped up to 70 mph, the steering wheel, gear shift, the whole interior of the truck started to shake like crazy. I knew it had something to do with the tire balancing. I was able to find a tire store in Georgia. The guy took my tires off, showed me on the balance machine how off they were, and then balanced them properly. I got back onto the highway, and the truck drove fine. I do not know what your service people did, but I paid for a tire balance, and certainly did not get it.

Second email

Good Morning Mark
Thank you for the email. I hope to have that out to you by the end of the week, I just wanted you to know we have not forget about you.

Brian, I was in to see you on September 6th regarding a refund on tire balancing performed by your service department. Your accountant was also present, and heard the entire story. As I explained then, I had my tires balanced at Key Scales on August 4, and on the 8th I was traveling north on I-75. The truck shook so badly, I had trouble controlling the wheel. I stopped, and went to a repair service, who re-balanced the tires, and the truck ran fine. When I spoke with you on 9/6, you agreed to reimburse me $65 for my cost to re-balance the tires. You said it would take about 2 weeks to process the refund. I talked with you last week, and you said you were at lunch, but would look into the matter when you returned to work, and give me a call. I still have heard nothing, nor have I received my reimbursement. Could you please let me know where the process is? Thank you.

I have tried to call you today, again, but you refuse to call me back. It certainly seems like I am being strung along, hoping I go away. Could you please be big enough to tell me whether or not you are going to reimburse me the $65 to have my tires balanced after your service people screwed them up? I am wasting a lot of time while being strung along, and will try other avenues if you will not help me. Please show enough customer courtesy to at least respond. Thank you.

Ford warranty claim (door latch) chrome planting peel off cause hand injury due to chip off.

I am really not satisfy and disappointed that the ford ranger pick up of year mfg :2013, plate# : plg8428 door latch chrome planting peel off cause hand injury due to chip off, it should be claim under manufacturing defect.

Had spoken to ford care center officer ms lin and manager mr krishnan. Meeting outcome, push responsibility to consumer saying ford only able to compensated 75% of the amount for this door latch chrome peel off cause to hand injury case.

Comment I want to bring out why consumer have to pay for "manufacturing defect" even with 4 years grace of period.
Consumer are being victim paying more and getting a non quality and reliable vehicle.
Reputation and durability commitment from ford will spoil market segment in the future.

Need ford to take the issue seriously on consumer complaint and to avoid next level escalation to media and fomca (Federation of malaysia consumers association)

Concern point trigger not to money, mainly on product safety compliance and company reputation of ford

I need fair justification due to cause injury and non reliable car maker.

Ford f250/ bought at jim tinary

I went in to purchase F250 Pickup with Finance through my credit union and the finance manger ran my credit through at least 5 different banks, I told him I already talked to my Credit Union and gave him the business card of the person I talked to he neglected to use this information until last. The whole problem with this is I had a average credit score of 805, until he played his game trying to get his commission or what ever he was doing through other finance places. All he managed to do was lower my credit score, when you go I and tell them to only go through a specific place that is what should happen. I have been a loyal Ford buyer since 1982 and this whole experience has soured me from buying a new Ford again.
Very Disappointed,
Debbie

Ford poor service and was discriminated against.

I was called by your dealership in Smithville TN. To set up an appointment to look at two vehicles.I set it up for 5:30 pm I got there around 5:00pm 11-3-17 and walk in the dealership to ask for Ryan to check out both trucks .This other salesman Tim said can I help you. I said no thanks I have spoke with Ryan about my needs.He said ok I ll get him. I then met him outside we first looked at the f350 and test drove it he said $39, 000 I said sounds a little bit high how about $34, 000 with a few problems it had.We got back at the lot started looking at the f250 that's when Tim the salesman showed up and ask me what I was doing. I told him I want the f350 but I wanted to test drive the other truck before I made my mind up. Tim ask why they all drive the same I said pardon me he then asked me why I need a truck like that and told me I couldn't test drive the f250 and I was wasting time and that I don't want to purchase the trucks .I said yes I do I'm not going to buy a vehicle I can't test drive.thats when he kept arguing with me and that's when I felt disrespected I the shakes hands with Ryan and left the property. I also call Jim the general manager around 6:25pm 11-3-17 and complained about not being able to complete the sale. Tim needs to be removed from his duty. Because he costed ford a big sale. Feel free to call me. Victor Gillihan [protected] I wished that I could of bought it. And recommend others to buy. But I can't get this matter resolved. Thanks.

Ford ford dealerships

I have had a horrible experience at 2 Ford Dealerships in my home state of Alabama. Have been mislead, lied to verbally and in texts. I love Ford and have owned Fords most of my adult life but am extremely disappointed that Ford would allow this quality of dealerships to promote and sell their product. Sierra Ford in Sylacauga, Al and Opelika Ford in Opelika, Al. Both dealerships have quoted a price to only decide after agreement to go up on the price. Also mislead by telling me a vehicle will be delivered and then to not communicate until I have to reach out to them and then told lies. Would love for someone from Ford to actually reach out to me with an explanation.

Ford 09 f250 diesel with 6.4

To whom it may concern,

I have been a dedicated ford user all my driving life . I recently bought my first desiel truck . I have one question I would like answered. When I bought the truck I knew the oil pan needed to be replaced it was rusted pretty bad. I was planing on replacing the oil pan when I did my first oil change . Had to make a trip out of state to pick up a trailer, the reason I got the truck. I made it about 100 miles when the truck just died not sure what was going on until I got out and found oil leaking all over the place. Now I did a lot of research before I bought this truck and I know that oil is very important to a desiel truck. Now I am a Guage watcher when I drive long trips so my question is if oil is so important why was there not an oil light or something to warn me that there was an oil problem before it died and locked up the motor on a truck I just bought.. now I have a beautiful truck that I really do love that is going to sit in my yard because can't afford a truck payment and a payment to replace the motor . Really look foward to hearing from someone

Thank you from a ford fan( for now)

Ford 2017 ford fiesta se hatchback

When deciding to buy a Ford Fiesta I looked at the brochure on the Ford website which stated that a Ford Fiesta SE hatchback has a leather wrapped steering wheel. My former car had one and I really liked it. After buying the car I brought it home (on 10/26/17) and noticed that my car does not have a leather wrapped steering wheel. I have called Ford (twice) and they said call the dealer (Basil Ford in Niagara Falls, NY). I called the dealer and they said they called Ford and couldn't get a resolution to this issue and claimed Ford has a disclaimer at the end of it's brochure. I would like a leather wrapped steering wheel.

Ford 2013 f150 truck

Bought brand new. Truck has just 20, 000 mile on it. Took it for inspection and told it need brakes and rotors. Warranty just ended. Too find out that it is all Rusting out. After we spent over 800.00 on this gadget when we bought it salesman said was next to gold at rust prevention. Shouldn't Ford be more accountable for who speaks and sells for them? The costs are exorbitant and for most it is a investment. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Air Bag Recall, This has been known to Ford co. and customers a long time, that there was a recall on defective airbags. After learning that as of Dec.31, 2017, the DEFECTIVE airbag co. would no longer replace their airbags in USA or Mexico followering some type of bankrupt they were filing, I called my dealership in Cary, NC.and the parts repair person told me that they had no replacement airbags for my 2009 Ford Fusion. But can you imagine this ? They are expecting to have new airbags in February 2018, I said THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE CUSTOMERS will have to pay for them then, He said 'SOUNDS LIKE IT ' My last Three cars were Fords, purchased from Crossroads Ford, Cary NC . iF Ford can't take a better look at customer care than this I, no doubt will take a better look else for my next car..

Ford 2015 ford focus titanium

I leased this Focus after having a 2013 Focus.
At that time I was told that the Transmission issue I was having with the 2013 was rectified. So I leased this one. I enjoyed the new roomier car and in the beginning the trans seemed to be on point. Well into my second year of the lease it began to show signs of the same issue as the 2013. Shuttering and dragging upon acceleration.
I have complained and they say a update was needed. Possibly but the issue still is there. Very upset with this Focus. I like the size of it but mechanically it is terrible and it can lead to having a accident especially when getting on the highway and merging into traffic.
Ford needs to fix this issue. It has been 4 yrs now! This so called double clutch, does not work! Safety first is not a given with this Focus! Being jerked around while driving is not acceptable.
