You can invoke the lemon law when it goes in for the SAME problem three times. Until then, keep bringing it in for warranty work.

To be a lemon the dealer must try the problem four times.
Hi so take it to another ford dealer for a check over first and tell them its history.
Get an attorney and let them advise you!
First and tell them its history.
Unlucky then as majority of Fords are Ok ( bearing in mind huge volume they shift so complaints will be higher due to sheer number out there) however. This isn't good either for you as customer or Ford reputation. Have a chat to customer services. You can get number from your Ford dealer.
they may offer you some recompense? E.g. Free servicing .cash back .etc aware Ford get slated a lot by those with an anti-Ford bias .here we can check with reviews etc given by unbiased reporters and magazines. At moment Ford has been equalling Toyota whom at one stage with Honda were market leaders for quality and reliability. Much to be said for Ford upping its game.
Lemon law, if same problem happens 4 times
- Have 98 Ford Ranger, 4.0, 171,000 miles, auto trans with limited slip. I've owned truck since new and have changed trans fluid every 30-35 000 miles and have never towed anything. The majority of the 171,000 miles are interstate driving. The truck shifts fine with no jerking or slippage. What I do get is thump(s) in rear end when I come to a stop, as gears are downshifting. Do I need a new transmission? Any suggestions? I suppose it's a "clunk" I hear and feel when I come to a stop, not a thump.
- Just bought a new truck, but wish I would have bought the Ford instead I put 8000 down and the first payment is due next week. Would it be wise to trade it just keep it for awhile?
- Why does 2017 ford focus 1.0L has less mpg than 2017 honda civic? It has tiny engine as geo metro like it supposed to be 50 mpg? The manual focus has 30 city 40 hwy mpg which is average for an 4 cylinder subcompact, while the automatic 1.5L civic makes 2 gained mpg difference.
- My Ford Focus 2010 radio won't work. I Replaced the battery with a new one and now it's locked? I don't have the manual and all it says on it now is "Ford Focus". It doesn't even show the time. No matter what I press, it just stays on "Ford Focus".
