Feeling ripped off and lied to
Written by James on 03/09/2018

On 1/30/18 at 0900 I dropped my 2013 F150 of because the engine fan had been coming on and running extremely loud and it had run hot the day before I brought it in. I received a call from Angela at 1611 to advise me that the tech was still looking at my vehicle and had not diagnosed it yet. I arrived around 1700 and was advised that the tech was still looking and that they should have an answer first thing in the morning. I asked if I could retrieve something from my vehicle and she said yes and started looking for the key. I advised that I did not need a key. When I walked to the back I found my vehicle parked on the side. I walked back to the service advisors area and inquired about the repair being covered by my extended warranty and left the information so they could be contacted. On 01/31/18 at 0930 Angela called to advise that the tech was still diagnosing my vehicle and inquired if I was adding fluid or had added fluid, which I advised no to both. Later that day at 1530 to say that the tech had discovered there was no fluid and that he discovered a leak coming from a part that was on back order(T-Connector). She stated that the part should be in by 02/14/18. I received a few calls from Angela updating me on the part. on 02/22/18 around 1126 Angela called to say that the part was in and I could pick up my vehicle around 5. I arrived to pick up my vehicle to discover that the work was not covered under the extended warranty, that it cost me $575.70, $351 for labor, $88.05 for a part that I found out today was changed because that is what y'all do when you change the hose that was leaking, not to mention that I waited 23 days without my vehicle for a part that I didn't need, 65.68 for one radiator hose, and $30.17 for a gallon of anti-freeze. I speak with the rep from my extended warranty plan to find out why my claim was denied and was told that hoses are not covered under my warranty and they where told that if was a hose leak. With all that I trying to come up with a reasonable explanation as to why my vehicle had to be driven 26 miles, the invoice had 67,030 miles going in and 67,031 coming out but the odometer had 67,056 when I got in it. Needless to say that I'm not very happy with this service appointment and feel I really got taken advantage of. If you want to talk I'm open to that but I will be forwarding this email as far up Ford Motor Company as I can get it to go. -- James M. Avery [contact information removed]
