It is not really the fact it happened to someone I know. If she had blown off the recall then I would have no sympathy for her. Im pissed because she brought it in and they turned her away then this happened. Did I mention she is 7 months pregnant (not mine!
) so it could have even been worse than it was. Im mad because this is a widely known problem and Ford and the dealers are playing it down when people & property are on the line.
Just so ya know I still love Ford and hate Toyota

I can respect your view on this because it could have been tragic.

Yeah, we are not going to go there on this. The most your getting out of me is Ford dropped the ball big time and they deserve all the negative press and lawsuits they get from this issue. Toyota will be a target of mine till the day I die so don't count on that changing

I went to 2 local ford dealerships and they both tuurned me down. Said they didnt have the part in stock and they would call when they did. That was 3-4 months ago. Im just waiting for my truck to catch fire, and Ill be suiing.

Great plan! Be sure to park in your garage to increase the chances of a big settlement.
Or you could order it online from DirectFord for $11.05 + $12.95 shipping and install it yourself this week. I hear it takes about 5 minutes.
