wrench

I own 4 Fords currently, and would buy another EX as mine has 110,000 miles. But the list of repairs since it hit 85,000 miles has eliminated any interest in a new one. Good luck with yours. I kept fixing mine, thinking 'well, If it lasts 'X' number of miles, I'll get my money out of it. This was a foolish expectation. Now what I do, is park it unless I need to drive in the snow, It saves me gas money. I went and bought a Hyundai for the warranty and rack up the miles on that. It is my first foreign car purchase. And I will tell you and anyone listening "I am an original Reagan Republican, and when Ford loses people like me, they are doomed!" You can keep your "Buy American" BS to yourself and tell Ford to "Support your product, Support your customer". I'm not going to buy some POS that was engineered for a 36/36 warranty period. Hell, my wife even told the Service Manager "This is supposed to be a durable vehicle"!

I've said it before. Explorer driveline problems will be the death of FoMoCo. It's easier to lay off 35,000 workers than to support their product with a proper warranty. Yes it's a common problem and only the beginning. Oh, we damaged the knuckle pressing out the bearing, no we make a different knuckle that needs a different tie rod...ya da, ya ya da, ya da Ain't it pathetic?!
