Consumer Description

MOTOR MOUNTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED CAR BROKE DOWN AGAIN 8/26 DEALERSHIP DID NOT REPAIR CORRECTLY AND THEN MY ENGINE BLEW UP BEFORE I LEFT TOWN. THEY REPALCED ENGINE AND NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE MOTOR MOUNTS AGAIN. I AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH ALL THESE ISSUES AND THE SERVICE I HAVE REC. MIRACLE FORD HAS NOT REIMBURSED ME FOR ITEMS THEY PROMISED, NOR HAVE THEY SENT ME INFORMATION I REQUESTED SINCE SEPTEMBER. HOW CAN A CAR KEEP HAVING MOTOR MOUNTS REPLACED. THIS SOUNDS LIKE A DEFECT. I HAVE RECORDS OF TAKING MY CAR IN FROM THE BEGINNING WITH THE SAME ISSUES THAT I AM FACING AGAIN TODAY.
