Re: Ford's answers to the NHTSA 6.7 Investigation

Having his truck towed away without repairs being made, shows deception on ricks part, calling for an instant and unreversible warranty revocation. Here's why......Even though he had his truck repaired by a Ford dealer (in his case Lincoln), theres no way that Ford can verify that the truck was repaired to specs using Ford parts. How'd you like to buy a used truck assuming that the warranty was good, then suprise! Water or not, wear damage or not, THATS WHY HE WAS DENIED FURTHER WARRANTY! So a Ford certified dealer works on the truck and Ford can't verify, REALLY? Rick would have an invoice for repairs showing part numbers. This would also be in the FORD data base.

Frankly not that I have seen, warranty questions aside I think the actual failure rate is what would be considered normal attrition for the amount of units in service in regards to the 6.7. "Normal" attrition is one thing. "Normal" attrition not covered by warranty is another thing. Depending on batch, there is a confirmed set of cases where an entire batch had failure rates in the double digit range. If that is normal, I hate to think whether it applies to all vehicles. Sorry hit enter to quick on the last response. X2 on NewW's post!389Views0likes0CommentsRe: Ford's answers to the NHTSA 6.7 Investigation

Does anyone have any current info on Ford. I would like to know if anyone has had a failure that was covered under warranty recently. I would also like to know if a newer improved version is available. If Ford is still denying warranty on these it would be worth it to me to just replace it at my expense to avoid a failure and spend 8-18 thousand for the repair. Also I called NHTSA and spoke to some of the people on the Ford investigation. They were unaware that ford was denying warranty on the HPFP and said if Ford did that it would alter the failure rate as Ford would not report a none covered failure. I also spoke to one of the executives at Bosch. He stated they make great fuel pumps and very bad water pumps. My response was the US fuel does not meet their own requirement for longevity of the pump. I had also asked if they were working on or had an improved pump and he would not say. All companies are constantly improving their products, but he would not admit this. I just wanted an improved pump that I could buy for piece of mind. I don't wan't to be worried about having a failure towing a trailer in the mountains. I am willing to foot the bill for a good pump but I can't even get that kind of information. Don't get me wrong I believe it is a crime for Ford to be denying these pumps and not paying to repair the truck. But it is a safety issue for me and my family.291Views0likes0Comments
