4th time in the shop in 3 months.
The tranny blew up in early november. The shop kept it 4 weeks to replace the tranny.
Bad vibrations in the drivetrain a couple weeks after the tranny replacement led me to take it in. They found that a Ujoint was bad and they'd have to replace that, but it wouldn't be covered because it was seperate from transmission, even though the start of it was right after tranny replacement.
Ford kept it 5 days to replace Ujoint.
When they were test-driving it with the new one, they realized they had put the wrong Ujoint in, but it was too late and they blew up my transfer case.
They replaced transfer case for free but 2 days after recieving truck the ujoint vibration and noise was back and there was some really strange shifting, so I took it back in.
Two days later I get it back after they replace a minor seal, and now my truck wont shift right at all. It waits 3-5 seconds after it should shift to shift. So now I must take it back into the dealer. It's getting old guys. It's getting old.
Ford has already gotten one bad letter...they are about to get another.

Hey BigBadRed;
Sorry to here about all the troubles you are haveing with the Truck!
Sounds like you might want to start looking around for a new dealer. I couldn't stand the service you are recieving, if I was in your shoes. Wish we could help you. Were here to hear your venting.
