in the early 90's i filled out the paper work to go through the lemon-law process on a chevy s-10 pickup.

when chevy was notified, they contacted me with an offer. they gave me back everything i paid for the truck towards the purchase of a new one.

if i remember right, i had about 30,000 or so miles on it, then rolled it in for the new next years model, and i think i ended up paying maybe 300 dollars more for the new truck in total.

funny thing was i had problems with that truck too, but didnt want to go through all the hassle again. i just decided then that i would never buy another gm vehicle during my lifetime.

also, 'on paper' they considered me a happy gm customer, as it was like settling out of court (without actually going through the lemon-law arbitration process).

 

Sorry to hear about your troubles dude...I hope it all works out for you....But like the old saying goes......Never buy a first year production or complete re-design of a vehicle.....even ford.....They all have their growing pains.....Good Luck in getting an 05'

 

I just hope I can go to an 05 without any problems from Ford..well see...I'll keep you posted, but this lemon law thing takes forever and it's just the begining.

 

You said you just found out. Who told you? I would think if the dealership did, the process would go smoothly.
