Consumer Description

RECENTLY DISCOVERED MAJOR DAMAGE DUE TO RUST AND ROT OF CAB PINCH WELD AT ROCKER PANELS ON BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES EXTENDING FRONT TO BACK. 2010, FORD F-150, CREW CAB, 51,000 ORIGINAL MILES. MY COMPLAINT WAS FORMALLY ADDRESSED AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE PURCHASED. THEY NOTED (VEHICLE IS VERY CLEAN......). MY CONCERNS WERE FORWARDED TO CORPORATE WITH RESPONSE BEING 'OUT OF FIVE YEAR WARRANTY'. HAVING FOUND MYSELF IN A DILEMMA I HAD AN AUTO BODY TECHNICIAN VIEW THE DAMAGE AND HIS ADVICE WAS TO TRADE THE VEHICLE. THE EXTENSIVE DAMAGE IS NOT THE RESULT OF NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. THIS DOESN'T TAKE A BODY TECHNICIAN TO RECOGNIZE THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO INFERIOR PRODUCT OF POOR WORKMANSHIP.
