Consumer Description

MY PTO WENT OUT AT 75000 MILES. I OWN FORD STOCK SO I KNOW THEY WILL TAKE A HIT.THEY NEED TO FIX INFERIOR ENGINEERING. I HAD AN AFTERMARKET WARRANTY BUT AFTER INVESTIGATING THINGS CAN BE DONE TO FIX BLATANT STUPIDITY. IF I WAS TO TRAVERSE A HILL ON SNOW I COULD EASILY START SLIDING BACKWARDS WITHOUT AWD. PLEASE MAKE FORD FIX THIS OR ARE YOU GOING TO CREATE MORE CARS LIKE LATE 70 OR EARLY 80S WERE THEY WERE JUNK. HERE'S AN IDEA WHEN A CAR HAS A KNOWN DEFECT LIKE THIS FORCE DEALERSHIPS TO LIST IT. I LIKE FORD IT IS ONLY AMERICAN CAR COMPANY THAT HAS SOME QUALITY. PLEASE PROTECT THE AMERICAN PUBLIC NOT TO SAY THE MUNICIPALITIES PAYING FOR ALL THE INTERCEPTORS THAT ARE BREAKING. ALL WERE SAYING IS GIVE US A FAIR DEAL AND I WILL ALWAYS BUY AMERICAN. THIS ISN'T A BELT OR WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR. 1500 BILL AT 75000 MILES. IF YOU GOING TO LET THEM SELL CRAP JUST LET THE AMERICAN PUBLIC KNOW SO WE CAN PROTECT OURSELVES.
