| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I received a recall notice concerning the fuel tank system. the problem with a bad part that keeps the fuel tanks from pumping from one tank to another. i took my vehicle to el cajon ford in el cajon california, the service manager said that if i had no problem he was not going to fix it. the vehicle had about 125,000 mile on it. i was then in the process of moving to oregon. at about 151,000 the vehicle started pumping fuel from the rear tank to the front tank. i took the vehicle to florence ford in florence oregon and they said it was out of warrenty. i called the ford manufacture and they said to bad. i tried to explain my situation and again they said to bad. i then said i would like to file a complaint and they said i have no reason to complain and hung up the phone. had el cajon ford fixed the problem i would not have this problem now. i am glad for the recall notice had i not been notifed my truck proably would have caught on fire by now. as for my support for ford i am loosing faith. i have most recently bought a ford ranger i used it mostly to visit my dying father, driving from san diego to oregon, and then moving to oregon. my vehicle was just out of warrenty when i had to replace the radiator and then some miles later replace the water pump. i have lost my faith in ford. i being third generation ford comsumer have had nothing but problems. on the other hand my daughter has a 95 toyota, 200,000 on it and has had on real problem. or a life threating problem. thankyou daniel loftin |
