Ric, question for you.
If Ford had covered your repair under warranty, would you have jumped off the band wagon?
I know there are issues with the first dealer and how they handled it, but Ford could have changed their mind and covered it.
I am starting to think that these pumps are generally right at the threshold, some are below the threshold and "don't last", but most are above the threshold and will survive the warranty period and beyond.. I am in the computer industry and we call it infant mortality rate (for example, there are a certain percentage of disks that will fail in the first several months of operation). This does not mean the disks are all bad, just that some failed... and as long as the percentages stay within the acceptable limits, life is good.
