Consumer Description

I AM REPORTING THIS BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD BE PENALIZED FOR A FAULTY HEADGASKET BEING PUT IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO PAY BECAUSE I DRIVE CAREFULLY AND MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES AND WAS ABLE TO KEEP THE PART WORKING UNTIL I WAS OVER THE MILEAGE MARK. SECONDLY I WAS NOT INFORMED WHEN THE 7/98 NOTICE CAME OUT SO I COULD NOT HAVE THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT. I MOVED HERE IN JULY OF 1998. ENDING THE PLAN 5 MONTHS LATER BEFORE I COULD EVEN GET TO A GARAGE TO FIND OUT WAS NOT THE BEST OPTION EITHER. A FAULTY PART IS A FAULTY PART. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR FORD'S ATTEMPT TO SAVE A BUCK OR TWO.
