Ford redemption dept

I have been trying to contact Ford Redemption dept. I was a victim of identity theft. Apparently the checks (and I have a list of the check s)
got taken out of the mail box. I was traveling for about 6 weeks. Thought the payment had made it to the PO Box I sent it to every month.
Got back to Ohio and made my Sept payment and received a statement finally had not gotten one for over 5 months. I found I owed 3 payments. Next day the truck showed up and took the Leased Car. I was told by the tow company everything would be uploaded to
Ford Redemption the next morning. Was told when I called they had not received the info yet.
So I talked to the redemption dept and went through a short interview and found what I had to do. Send the payment mongram express which was done on Monday evening Oct 28, 2019. Called them the next day because they are only opened till 5 and this was done at approx
635 PM, Tuesday called got asked to hold and got cut off 3 times. That happened the next 2 days. Thursday was on hold and finally someone came on and took the info and said someone would call back before the close of business. DID NOT HAPPEN
I have left the account number and the receipt number and nothing has happened. I do not want anything else to happen as the car going to be sold because everything is NOW paid up. I explained I was sorry this happened and did all I was told to do and still NO ANSWER.
Please explain what I need to do to get my vehicle back Ronald Schilke [protected] Escape 2018 Ford Lease Sept 2018
I am hard of hearing but I will call you back. Thanks

Ford rattle inside of truck

I purchased a 2018 ford F-150 Lariat brand new. This vehicle now has 13400 miles on it. I have had a rattle in the passenger side middle and back now for 6 months. I have taken it to 2 dealerships. One could not hear any thing the other has had it 22-3 times. Even went on road test with the person logging it in and then she as well took it on a road test with one of the mechanices. Both heard what I have been hearing, however they say they cannot locate it. One time they told on the first work order #835809/1 that they seemed to have fixed i quoiting TSB 18-2361 and installed 2 linch pieces of heater hose and 2 clamps under the bar under the pass seat All ok now. I looked and seen none of what they are talking about and the noise is still there. They kept it over night and i think it just sat in the yard the next day until I came over and picked it up Stating they still could not find the noise, and was given 0 paper work. I have call the tech 3 times today and left message to call me. It is now 445 pm Utah time and still no call. I dont think they know what the hell there doing. Just replace the whole truck that I am paying over 40 K for and will start over. Other wise lets get someone who knows what there doing and fix this problem I cannot afford to run back and forth 220 miles each way every time they need it. And Tischners Ford here in town suck.

Ford 2014 escape

This car has been nothing but trouble since I first leased it in 2014. At around 60, 000 miles the engine had to be replaced. Later that year the transmission had to be replaced. And before the year was out the steering rack had to be replaced. Two years later the car needed further engine work and the flywheel later cracked. The fly wheel had pressure cracks all around the center hole. Roughly a year later, this month, the fly wheel had cracked again and the car is in need of $6, 000 in engine work. How many engines should a car have in it's life time? Because this car is going on it's third engine. Every mechanic I have talked to has told that basically Ford Escapes after 2012 are garbage and I am living that nightmare. The car is currently on the lift at Davisdon Ford in Watertown NY where it will stay because I can no longer afford to put money into this money pit. What paperwork I have is in the glovebox of the car. Thank you for your time, Michelle Bex [protected]@gmail.com

Ford power steering wheel

My power steering went out on my 2010 Ford Fusion. I did some research an to my surprise this is an issue that Ford Motors Company knows about. It has been happening to numerous customers all over the country. I saw over a thousand complaints about this issue there is a recall for the power steering wheel, but only for 2011 and up. The 2010 is not listed as a recall I will be contacting local radio and news companies to get the word out. This is a major problem that Ford Company knows about but fail to do anything about. This issue can cause a major accident or death.

Ford purchase of previously owned Honda Civic 2018 sold to us with damage.

Spoiler was held on with twist ties when purchased... several days later the spoiler came off when driving down the highway... returned to David McDavid to repair. They kept for several days and returned to us. After a couple of
weeks the spoiler came off again... returned to David McDavid and they refused to repair or replace.

We had to have the vehicle towed and eventually it ended up at a Honda dealer with us paying for the tow and repairs
$1400. This all happened in a period of 5 weeks from the purchase. We can send you specifics... David McDavid has the details at their location.

We are a Ford family - have been for many years. I was totally disappointed in how David McDavid handled the issue.. I had thought they had a good reputation in Ft. Worth. My grandson, who purchased the car, is a local graduate of TCU in Ft. Worth with his Masters Degree and a registered alum... I tell you this because he is a responsible young man.

Ford f-250 super duty def problem

We took our truck to Beaman Ford in Dickson TN for the recall on the DEF system and don't believe they really did the work.We think they just removed the code as the check engine light came back on within 30 days.They wanted us to then pay for testing.Once we put more DEF in the light went out and only came on when we were alerted the DEF was low.This week when that came on my husband put in 2.5 gallons of DEF fluid.Even though it showed full it cut him back to 50 mph and then idle and is stuck in idle.Beaman wantsd $165 to diagnose the DEF problem.They know what the problem is but...What can we do to get it out of idle.

Ford designer

To whom it may concern,

I just recently bought a new 2019 Ford Fusion S model.

I was told by the salesman could load the FordPass app on my phone to upload my contact list to list to my car. The contact list worked fine but I could load NOT other apps to my car after several tries. After further research, I was told that there is a modem that is not loaded on Fusion S model. I was told that it would be an after market expense which i feel should be automatic on all your late model cars.

My question is WHY this is not standard equipment of the Fusion S but on the Turbo & the hybrid models?

The reason now that CD's have been removed from cars & people listen to satellite radio WHY no modem in this model to receive internet apps?

I would like a response please.

Thank You,

Ford everything during my buying experience and after

Just to make it very clear: After 3 Ford cars, I'll never buy a Ford again thanks for my experience with Ford Costumer Service and your dealer Ford Elder of Tampa.
I bought a Ecosport in March that should have had a hitch put in 2 weeks. I paid off the car in cash on the acquisition date. After 2 months they still didn't provide me with the hitch (that was the only reason I exchanged my car, because I needed a hitch for my mom's scooter). Then I went to the store and they said the only solution was pay another $4, 000.00 to get a Escape with a hitch. I did it because of my mom. By the way, they made my mom be sitting for 5 hours, in pain, waiting for them for a solution. I was yelled by the manager Dan Sills in the middle of the store, threatened of getting the security pulled me out of the store... So I ended up with a car that I didn't want, with scratches, a noise underneath and a carpet all messed up (I'm sure this car was in a crash, because besides the scratch and the carpet that was clearly changed, it has a noise once you turn the wheel). They said they would fix all those problems, but I would have to take the car and wait for the service, that couldn't be done on the weekends. As I work, weekends would be better for me, but it is not the best for them and that's what matters. Also, I would have to rent a car or call a uber or just wait for the service been done. Not even a car they offered me to be able to go back to my work, I would have to pay for their mess... Awefull costumer service again! I got 2 phone calls from Ford asking about my experience, and I told both of them about all of this... no call back from you neither! Meaning: you, Ford, don't care about what costumer service we are getting.
Bye bye Ford! Welcome another car maker! Because Ford doesn't care.
My name: Egly (Logan) Bittencourt

About a month ago I called this dealership to schedule my car to come in for an oil change, to check a bolt that had come off under my car, and to have molding and trim replaced on my rear wheel well on the passenger side. I dropped the car off the day before for service. First I never received a phone call saying my car was finished. It sat done all day...

Ford esp extended service plan

I purchased an ESP plan when I purchased my 2017 escape that I was charged 3300 dollars for. When I recently brought car in for service they said it had expired at 36000 miles. Now when you buy a vehicle it has a 3 year 36000 mile warranty, so who in their right mind is going to purchase a plan that is already covered. I was told when I purchased the car that the service plan would cover the vehicle beyond the factory warranty which is what those plans are for. Needless to say I am beyond disappointed in this business practice. I have been driving fords my whole life including four Broncos, four F150'S, four Mustangs and presently an Escape and F250. This will most likely be my last fords do to the poor representation and shady business polices of this dealership.

Ford oil changes and service

This place in Clarksville Ky even though I have a 2017 full bumper to bumper service for oil changes tire rotation etc, they will not do these items without another major thing added to the appointment like some other kind of repair - which I do not have on this new Tarus
We told them to add tire rotation and they set an appointment November 6th but would not do a straight oil change under this warranty plan with or without use paying for the service with money.

This is a crappy way to do business on a company who owns a fleet often as many as 9 ford products. Your other local Hopkinsville KY dealer is even worse when it comes to service and equipment and lack of people who can even run the equipment

Now since my ownership includes the cost of this service and I can not get the service my legal company calls that fraud!. Can you fix this if you care, or do we sell our equipment to car max and buy some cheap GM product because the service in our new area of resident is to cheap or careless or un-professional to provide service
Let me know how your company intends to help us, prior to us taking other majors

This is specifically caused by improper etching primer" The dealership however state...

Ford hickory cloninger ford

My wife and i bought a brand new 2016 ford focus. She noticed the transmission and clutch issues a month or two in. We have complained about it numerous times and have been told it wasn't bad enough to fix. Now that we are out of warranty they are requesting 2000 dollars to fix it. When we pushed back they claimed they would only.give us 400 dollars towards the fix. I believe they have falsified information on the case. I have reached out for the last 3 weeks and have gotten zero help from them. I asked for the regional service managers information and they are refusing to provide it or any information for any corporate assistance. I have never missed a payment, we have had our car serviced there, and have brought this to their attention numerous times. I am now paying a 400 dollar car payment and insurance on a car that is stuck sitting in the driveway, with no help. Please provide assistance because my next step is to get a lawyer. Thank you

Ford 2016 ford escape

I bought a 2016 Ford Escape from you just about 3 years ago
Anyways the car has been fine it has just about 80, 000 miles on it now and I have had no trouble until the past few weeks. The check engine light came on saying there was a misfire in Cylinder 4. The car was just at Firestone getting an oil change and new tires and so I asked them to look at it. They replaced the spark plugs and cleaned out the fuel system as well as replacing a coil.

Needless to say the check engine light came on again.

Last Friday I was driving home from work and a red light came on and said the engine was overheating. The temp gauge went to the H. I was stopped at a red light and before I could pull over the car reset itself into safe driving mode and the temp gauge went down to normal. I drove the car home maybe 2 miles and than I drove it to Ford in Huntley. They just called me and stated the engine is cracked and it will cost me around 5K to repair.

The car is 3 years old and I did not get any extended warranty because I drive

(highway) about 70 miles a day and the warranty would be over within the first 4 years of purchase. I still have 2 years to pay on the car.

I need some assistance here if possible. Can you please advise me on what if anything I can do to get this corrected.

Thanks !
