LMFAO!!!
Shanking My Head!!!
They have gone to CRAP!!!
Are they (ford) ever going to build a quality product again? Doubtful! I fear the end is in sight for a once great automobile company! Didn't take long for the kids to destroy.
A recall to repair a former recall repair! WOW! Ford, where's the quality? Which was, in the past, to be job 1......before the name goes on! I guess they recalled that too!
It seems to me you guys sure Love calling out Ford’s failures! My 17 2.7 Ecoboost F150 went 194 K and other than brakes tire and a O2 sensor was perfect, traded it for a 22 same engine and 40k ain’t missed a step. Google never mentions GM engine and transmissions failing and body rust before you get em paid for same for RAM.
