So I take my car out a couple days ago and hear a ticking when I cut the wheel. Me thinking its the CV joint I thought no biggie. So I brought it back to my house. And sent it to the dealer the next day. They call me and tell me everythings fine. It just the wheels rubbing on my fender and its making that sound. Im like, that dont sound like the problem so whatever. But the thing was they put 30 miles on my car to find that out… Take it back home the next day theres a huge puddle of fluid under my car. Thats shinny as all hell. (Metal flakes) SO take it back to the dealer. They just call me now saying that the trannys pretty much shot. And of coarse they arnt going to cover it… The car only has 26,000 miles on it… so im about to kill someone right now… :reloading ---

If the car only has 26000 miles on it (btw what kind of car?), what reason did they give for it not being covered? And where did you take it? ---

I’m sorry, but that reason is not valid. You should either push the subject and demand coverage or try another dealer. If you have to, talk to some kind of a manager and explain that you are young and will be buying a lot of cars throughout the years and that another ford will not be one of them if they can’t stand behind a vehical with 26000 miles. ---

You aren’t expecting too much out of them. It’s winter, so they can’t say you were racing and no offense, but it’s a ZX2, not exactly the sportiest car. Unless you took it in there with some rediculous power mods they are bullshitting you. ---

Unless you took it in there with some rediculous power mods they are bullshitting you. non taken. Thats what im saying… I mean… I have a CAI and a 2.5 SS exhaust. Got that because “I WAS” about to put a turbo on it. Shit on that now… The car can’t even handle being daily driven. I bought this car so I would be different, and thought the thing could handle some what modification but holy f\*ck… ---

goto another dealer. I had to take my sho to 3 different dealers before they would cover the tranny when I blew it up. some dealers have good sales departments (woltz and wind ford) and some dealers have good service departments (sturman ford). at least with me. ---
