My prolong water leak problem has been found
I been writing and spitting fire for a while now. Long story short, after 10 tries to fix my water leaks (from passenger side to the drivers side) I believe they located the problem. A special tech by Ford was sent to review my case and take a look at this ongoing problem. They used my car in a class, in front of other techs to teach how these problems should be avoided. Turns out, he found where the trail of water was coming from (this is for the drivers side).
I left my car in last Thursday, and I don't think I will get it back for another week. They took it to body shop, and will take everything off the car and re-weld the joints that were factory welded together. That's why water kept coming in. Good job Ford. I know my case was a "special" one since many leaks were fixed by you, but this is just an FYI for those that keep have reoccurring problems. I had issues with this car five days after I bought it, on top of water leak issues. I couldn't file for lemon since my boss (I worked at a dealership) was on my *** about it. Ford lawyers finally responded to my lawyers so hopefully they will see the hell I been through. The car lost its economical value and it's been a burden.
Any questions you might have, fire away.
Best,
SS

Isn't that a paradox?

Well, that was 3 years ago bro. I filed for lawsuit just a month ago. I wasn't intimidated, I was just reassured that the Service would be able to fix it.

On the 5th to 6th time back, that warm and fuzzy feeling was gone, and I was standing outside the dealership yelling and tearing up brand new carpet to show those idiots that it was still leaking.
If I had it to do all over again, it would have been Lemon Law, by the book; get the car in for as many repair attempts as is required by law as soon as possible. If they really do fix it, great. If they don't waste no time in getting rid of it (via the Lemon Law). The time I spent putting my faith in Ford to do right by me in the form of a repair is money I will never get back from them. Lesson Learned.

Ouch, 3 years ago !! I hope you have all the documentation about the failed attempts at fixes but even then, I dunno. What are you hoping to get from Ford at this time?

I'm asking for at least 15k from them. At least. Heck, I still have about 15k left on the car (if I didn't put down 7k of cash towards it). It's the least they can do, for throwing **** into public.
