Default ford dealer question

Does anyone know if the ford dealers have payment plans or something for working on vehicles? I need my heater core replaced and really do not have the time or money to do it, nd a payment plan would be great.

most likely no, i worked at a dealer for 4 years. you either have a credit account with them or you do not pick the car up until it is paid for.

Ford dealers do not as far as I know. But I've seen a lot of smaller shops around that advertise they'll do "12 months no interest payments" and things like that. Sounds like what you'd need. Just do a little research on what shops to try and which ones to stay away from. Some can be excellent and most can be horrible.

Holcomb Motorsports in Lumberton

PCM-Piedmont Custom Motorsports in Raleigh

Looking at the price for the part, you should be able to get a heater core for under $50. The problem and the cost will be the install, due to having to take apart the dash.

All said, you should be looking at around $350 for a shop to do it, if you bring the parts.
I don't think i have enough of the right tools to help you out, or i'd offer...
Maybe hit up the gang from Twisted Stallions (out of Wilson) too. Somebody there may be willing to lend a hand or recommend someone closer to you

yeah, I've heard of them in Wilson. but once I find someone I'm gonna buy the part before I go. I'm gonna get a Ford one off Late Model Restoration. The cheap ones from Autozone aren't worth anything. Hopefully, after that I won't have this problem for the life of the car.
