Why Ford Is Failing And I'll Never Buy Another One - Share Your Stories!

What happens here

After five weeks of his truck being at the dealership, Josh contacted Ford Motor Company directly to file a formal complaint. A Ford representative, Vince, left a voicemail apologizing for not connecting directly and explaining that the previously offered extended service plan could not be added because an active extended plan was already associated with the vehicle's VIN. Ford's policy, as explained, prevented adding a new plan or increasing the timeframe of an existing one. However, Vince stated that once current repairs were completed, they could move forward with a "limited maintenance plan." This policy meant Josh would be denied an extended warranty for his truck. Separately, the video shows Josh performing a DIY repair on the sunroof, manually disassembling components to fix issues not covered or addressed by the dealership, using basic tools like a screwdriver. This task represents his personal effort to address vehicle issues outside of formal Ford service.

Goal: Detail Ford's policy on extended warranties and the owner's attempt at personal repairs.
