Just called dealer and they said they have not received the same notice that parts were ready and that they do not have a remedy so I could not schedule this repair. Called Ford and they said "We will have a Ford team member reach out to your dealership regarding this matter" and they gave me a...
Not much. I did the calcs on mine xlt 4k @ $29,405 and it was a little more than $500. I went with the State Farm discount for $500. You can find the xplan formula in this forum or online. I just wanted to get out of the dealership as quickly and painlessly as possible and I figured using...
You can file a complaint with the NHTSA. If enough people file a complaint, they may do something, likely not but it made me feel better anyway. I agree, why do those who have already paid for their vehicles get no remedy and those who are getting theirs manufactured now and have not paid for...
Wired the Kia mirror up to the fuse box on passenger floor side as others have. No splicing, soldered additional wiring needed to reach the fuse box. Easy to drop the front of the headliner and remove the A pillar trim. If for any reason I run into warranty electrical issues, I can remove...
They put me in touch with Ford Customer Care or whatever it is called. They said they would follow up with me after I visited the dealer for the problem. At least for me, they did make me "feel" like Ford cared. Whether or not they actually get anything done if things do not work out with the...
If you read the dozens of the others who have had this issue, the majority get no resolution from the dealer. I have an appoint with them, in May if that helps you.
I am setting up an appointment as well. It seems many / most that have taken it to a dealer get head scratching by the service dept and get no resolution so I am not holding my breath. One poster just suggested replacing the battery on their own dime. I am not there yet.
Another low battery voltage thread. Sorry. Auto stop start stopped working, looked at the menu on the instrument cluster and it said something like charging system charging battery. Started reading about this on this forum and I now see it is very common problem. Some say it is caused by...
When the Maverick was conceptualized and put forward as a new vehicle for Ford to manufacture and sell, the palpable fear of very high gas prices was not as it is today. High gas prices (and good intentions relative to carbon emmissions) are definitely driving demand of the hybrid and a good...
He has been educated by FordTechMakuloco and so have I. Manufacturer does not own the drive train after 60K miles, I do. Changing fluids is cheaper insurance than extended warranties.
Yes, I own one, it is a "cheaply" made vehicle and they are made in an area where there has been a history of manufacturing issues. I think it will be remembered as a DIY/fix it yourself vehicle. Not complaining, just lowering my expectations. The lucky thing is if someone is truly unhappy...
fwiw, I went ahead and filed a complaint with the NHTSA for a non-timely repair which likely will be over 4 months since I took ownership. Took about 5 minutes. Whether it helps or not I do not know but Ford is obviously fitting new vehicles with a remedy, why do ours get repaired at a later...
