  1. I had a raw fuel smell in the cabin of my truck that was really noticeable while warming it up by remote start every day when I got in and when I was at idle stopped coming through the ventilation system. Took it into the dealer which they agreed they also smelled something? They had my truck for two days and found no leaks and also checked the fuel rail that some 07 had a recall on with nothing found. Before I was about to pick up my truck I had read that if you just had your plugs changed which I did a few weeks earlier to have them recheck the plugs for correct torque or to see if one or more could be backed off which could lead to the raw fuel smell especially at start up. This was the same dealer I had the nightmare 5.4 3 valve plugs replaced at and yes they did break off 3 of the eight plugs on removal. Anyway they said they would check it which they did and they said they found all the plugs tight the way they should have been. Well all I will say is my truck no longer has the fuel smell at any time? I believe it was a plug issue myself but the truck was running great with no codes or check engine issues at the time, anyone else experience this problem with there expedition ?
  2. My 2007 limited has had the driverside and passenger side replaced. Only thing saving grace was I had a ESP and it cost me 100 bucks twice. Not good
  3. Even the Nom-Exempt Salary techs who work the weekends in testing are asked to take a day or two off during the week to cover the weekend work so they don't pay the overtime. Happening all over the VEV labs.
  4. Just had the TSB fixed yesterday 08-9-8 so far so good. Plus they repaired my window that was not working. Cable came apart.
  5. Thank you! Anyone who thinks that GSR salary employees who make up by far the masses, have not sacrificed anything and lost jobs and benefits need to get the facts.
  6. I agree with your post but some people only have tunnel vision and refuse to see both sides. It's a losing battle my brother.
  7. As cuts go I agree the upper Management could take a pay cut, but for the majority of the salary workforce the GSR employees have been getting hammered on benifits for some time now. Our cost for medical coverage is a lot higher then what UAW employees pay, not even close. I'm a salary employee and have never had anything bad to say about the UAW, everything I had growing up was because my dad retired as a skilled trades GM employee. I guess some people need to understand that the biggest percentage of Fords salary employees the GSR's have given up alot themselfs. I do understand everyone's wages have benifited for what the UAW has fought and stood for for so many years. Good luck and best of wishes for my MANY UAW friends and family. Peace!
  8. Amen ! just made me more proud to be a tiger fan. Remember always a Tiger! Thank you Mr I
  9. That would be a big YES! Just ask a unamerican axle UAW employee that question. They just took a big pay cut last March on their new contract and now they want more down to 10 dollars a hour for some postions.
  10. We are maxed out at about 10,000 total to sell anyway.
