Three week later my t past 30 days. On my first trip for a malfunctioning charging system I was charged $257.00 and was told I had a corroded wire. Three week later my truck returned on a tow truck, the electrical system was completely dead and a mounting bold for the alternator was missing. Later I was approached by the services rep (Larry Kocheny) and advised that my battery had a dead cell and that was the problem and that I was responsible for the whole bill including the tow, aggravated by the lack of support I did ok the fix. 45 min later Larry Kocheny returned and told me my truck was still not charging. I run a handy man service and I have lost three days of work, $600.00 of income and all my work is set back I can’t recommend that any one do business with this Chicago land dealer and there is a strong possibility that this will initiate a civil action agents this dealership Kindly: Bentover More

My 2000 windstar lx sport (50k miles) was in for check engine light and intermittent metal screetching from engine compartment followed by engine quitting when stopped at light. Dealer replaced intake ma engine light and intermittent metal screetching from engine compartment followed by engine quitting when stopped at light. Dealer replaced intake manifold gasket and new valve covers for $770. Within 3 days screetching returned along with the engine quitting. Made appointment through service mgr. then decided to go to local independant shop (thank god), as they accurately diagnosed the problem upon my description, and promptly changed out the cam sensor and housing. They gave me the old part and I was able to duplicate the screetching by turning the shaft with my hands. Cost: $250 and they told me their computer indicated the sensor error code; funny the Ford dealer's computer couldn't do that especially since I come to learn this is a common problem with these 3.8 Ford engines. So much for listening to what the customer tells them about why they brought their car in for service! Next time I'll talk to the computer! More
