| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My wiper motor stopped functioning while driving in rain. when i took it to a lincoln dealership in n. palm beach. the service person mentioned that there was a recall on a wiper motor cover..that was likely to cause complete loss of wiper function. i called ford motor company about this at the request of the dealership and after many calls. 1. to a person called missy 2. to a person called robin #7352 3. to a person called randy in melbourne, fla. after talking to them they mentioned that a person on their "techline" named dursum sent a message to the dealership that they would not take care of the wiper motor repair. (no explanation of why not) upon calling ford mo co , the person randy, tried to get a supervisor, and mentioned that all the supervisors were busy, and would call me back in 24 hr. upon mentioning that 24 hrs was a long time. randy tried again. a supervisor at the melbourne office of ford called marisha said that nothing would be done. she also mentioned that i would not be able to get a copy of the reason ford refused to make the repair. i am upset that ford refused to fix a part that was expressly stated in a recall. i am going to have my motor repaired at another service establishment, definitely not fords. i will retain the receipts. i am requesting a reimbursement for this repair, and want to make it noted of fords' response to this situation. the reference # of this to ford is 1363350186 my car is a 2000 town car it looked as though 1,083,00 units were affected by this recall. that's a lot of cars that could cause a lot of damage. *nm |
