I am in the service industry. I repair copiers, printers, and faxes. I had a copier right out of the box throwing a code. Fixed that code and another one shows. I was on the phone with the manufacturers tech service to get it resolved. After replacing about every board in the thing, they sent out their lead tech who was on the phone with their engineers. Never did get it fixed, they swapped it out and sent us a new one. They had that machine we couldn't fix sent back to Japan. Never heard if they ever figured it out.

if it's a wiring fault, it can be damned hard to find the source of the problem. This car has 500x more wiring than those old Porsches and Lotuses you venerate.

besides, if it was so damn easy to figure out, why haven't you found the problem yourself?

And even if the dealership is not fully analyzing the problem, what does that say about Ford?
nothing, since by state law dealers are independent entities not affiliated directly with the auto manufacturer.

Beat it Troll. I bought a 2015 GT premium and the car is spectacular! No issues. I drag race the car on drag radials and it simply laughs at the abuse I throw at it. Go take your stories somewhere else. Maybe a Porsche forum???
