Consumer Description

WE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS RECALLS FOR SAFETY ISSUES, ALL OF WHICH WE HAD CHECKED AT LAIRD NOLLER. THE CAR EXPERIENCED SEVERAL OTHER REPAIRS (AIRCONDITIONER) EARLY IN ITS MILEAGE. AT 78,000 THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY, LEAVING OUR DAUGHTER (AGE 20) STRANDED 110 MILES FROM HOME ON I-70. WE HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT GREEN FORD IN ABILENE, KS. COSTING US ABOUT $1900.TEN MONTHS LATER THE HEAD GASKET BLEW, LEAVING MY HUSBAND STRANDED ON I-70. WE HAD THAT REPLACED FOR $900.
