Don’t give up so keep pushing your dealer to cover the additional cost you mentioned.
) It's a beast (not that it's that much weight) but it does most towing better than my Super Duty V10 in some cases (though it has 300k on it) Anyways I added some bags and Bilstein shocks witch both were a game changer. Anyways enough about my truck, what happened to yours? Man, feel for you brother.
Have you called Ford and requested assistance with the buy back? I am sure they are willing to give some money to make this right.So the newest update. Ford has advised the technician to perform a cylinder deactivation test. Not entirely sure what that entails. If that test comes back no problems then the engine gets torn down to find out what went wrong. Either way the truck gets torn apart. My brain can’t handle the thought of this happening at 1000 miles. The dealer is buying the truck back but they aren’t doing me any favors. I am picking up the exact same truck minus a bad engine (I hope) on Monday. Hate getting the new one from the same dealership but the savings on sales tax vs. dealership cutting me a check is huge. This was the first time in my life that I was able to pay for a new truck outright and it didn’t end well. I guess life throws you a curve sometimes.
I would as we'll, not a great buying experince. I'm pretty confident Ford customer service will take care of you. I am also surprised the dealer didn't suggest you call them for financial assistance on the deal.
Extremely rare problem that you’re going through but at least you’re getting an entirely new vehicle instead of just having the engine replaced under warranty.
Keep us updated on how it works out.
