100 dollar deductable everytime, the 08 and up has no deduc lol.

We get that complaint a lot, you cant "fix" a 6.0, but rather patch it up for a while............until the next failure.

You need to review your warrenty info / Packet and read all the fine print.

The 100k 5 year deal is on the engine, covers most everything, even the HFCM on the frame...well the later years it does anyway. PITA, I usually pull the part number of the failed part and get with the warr clerk to see if its covered..........even the cac boots and intercooler are if I rewmember.

as the tech said " sorry Mr. Bruno but i dont know how it happened but you had 3 dropped injectors " silent

bruno June 18th 2010, 7:09 pm

lets see ........ 3 reman injesctor nozzles and 1 fuel pump Shocked

richter69 June 18th 2010, 7:56 pm

After the fuel pump they replaced didnt fix it they went back in and replaced the iniector(s) they left loose...........thats exactly what happend, hope everything else got tightned................ Lol

Techs like that are what makes The Fabio a HeRo.............

billandlori June 18th 2010, 9:43 pm

AL to OK is a bit far for service work, but if it gets fixed right, it may be worth it!!

You would think Ford would pound it into tech's heads to fix it carefully and correctly to try and save a bit of rep for the POS engines....Mistakes happen but I would think there are many customers that are thinking of other brands after the 6.0 trip. Flat rate I guess!!

I've already made up my mind (Long ago)I will never own a Ford Truck(diesel)04 thru 2010 Rolling Eyes

Hope the new engine is better.

bruno June 19th 2010, 9:00 am

LMAO ................................. atleast it started up this morning !!!!!! Mad

so if i put any load on this engine it sounds like the wastegate is opening up to soon and it feels like the turbo is about to fall out Shocked

they were happy to see me at service again this morning ......... but i was still professional and very diplomatic !!!

to be continued .................................................

atleast Missy @ Ford Customer Solutions Team makes me feel all warm and fuzzy Razz

richter69 June 19th 2010, 10:56 am

Now just get her to fix the truck...........

bruno June 19th 2010, 2:53 pm

wtf ........... (in my most furious voice) they just called me and said they can no longer work on my truck until a Ford investigator shows up and that if he makes the calls "no warranty" i will have to incure the costs of the rental , parts, and labor !!!!!

Happy Father's Day !!!!!

jones June 19th 2010, 3:11 pm

I find it dusturbing that dealerships or Ford do this to there customers. What can you do if they deni you warranty and you haven't done the first thing to cause a denial? Maybe they will buy the truck back, what is Alabamas lemon law?

if they say no..... Hand them the keys.... No compromise, no if's, and's or but's about it.... It's under the milage and time, you haven't knowenly abused it, you've maintained it to their recomendation..... Fuck them !! When you go to meet them face to face to hand them the keys make a sceen in the dealership in front of any customers there and only talk with them in the showroom at peak if you can !!

Doug Rahn June 19th 2010, 3:59 pm

I'd file a lawsuit and have Jon appear as an Expert Witness.

richter69 June 19th 2010, 4:28 pm

That dealer is full of shit, and their tech sucks. Best thing you can do is fnd another one.
