The greed has turned them into scammers most customers don’t know about cars so they rob them blind

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. You were telling my F150 story exactly! It never occurred to me that they were purposely avoiding a major warranty repair (10R80). After my last fight with OIAC Ford service department, I drove my otherwise beautiful truck to a Toyota dealer and traded it in for a 23' Tacoma. Wish me luck and thank you for your super informative videos. New subscriber here.

yeah unfortunately they do, because tech can't make money on warranty job and most of the time it is very time consuming and not profitable.

@Matthewjo22 Do the shops and mechanics fare any better under an aftermarket extended warranty repair job?
@Matthewjo225 ай бұрын
@@zachouch1315 NO, it is not about shop it is about the warranty Compnay, they don’t pay good labors and they cut a lot from parts, that’s why most shop owners refuse to work with warranty

When I left the dealership several years ago I was discussed. I'm a heavy truck guy so not only is it his wheels but it is his way to support his family. Anyway emissions and emission related issues have killed the owner operator truck drivers over the years. A guy or lady would buy a new truck thinking great no over the top repairs (or at least shouldn't be 😂) but something will go wrong so they take it in. Yup no problem it's warranty BUT the parts or the time for us to do it is sometimes months down the road. The payments don't stop while it's down. And for the one's who paid in full ain't making any money. Hence the term "if the wheels aren't turning you ain't earning" it's a sad reality. Just one more thing because I know that this is getting a bit long but you hear people say great less trucks on the road. Alot of people don't realize that every thing they have came on a truck at some point in it's journey. Hence the say "if you got it a truck brought it". And or " They deliver everything except babies". Anyway this is one of your best videos yet. No there's nothing wrong with the other ones just saying that this is a strong one. Ty for putting this type of thing up for the world to see 👍 🇨🇦 🔧

I have numerous stories from my own cars: Abysmal quality in the only brand new one (many, many years ago), with multiple faults that they did not see pre-delivery and also a faulty alternator they said was fine & took months to fix. Two different Sierras with wrecked water pumps after the first timing belt change, due to ludicrously over-tight belts. Damaged handbrake cables after a service - dealer said it could not possibly be them & drew me a diagram of the drum brakes to prove that the cables were never touched. ON A CAR WITH ALL-ROUND DISCS. A good independent place opened up & I've never been back to the dealer for any work since. Plus the infamous (Mazda-Ford) Duratec engine swirl plate (inlet manifold) engine wrecking fiasco - Ford denied all liability, while Mazda did a recall for a similar problem on their version of the swirl plates. I've always liked the Sierra / Mondeo series and still think they are basically very good and reliable cars - as long as the dealers are not involved! DIY where possible or an independent mechanic otherwise.

For Ford diagnostics, get "Forscan", it's completely free, runs on any pc/laptop and can do pretty much anything the dealer diagnostics can (that the local dealer charges £180 per hour for!).

Ironically, salespeople will scare the customer into buying an extended warranty, at 50% commission.
@zachouch13155 ай бұрын
But isn't it necessary to get one these days regardless of the cost?
@Matthewjo225 ай бұрын
yeah, they dont make any money from sales, thats why they have to push people to buy extended warranty or other stuff
@p.b.94285 ай бұрын
@@zachouch1315NO! @josephroy6593 is spot on. Most extended warranty service contracts are provided by a third party at a set price. Whatever the “salesperson” charges is up to them. Thus, 50% (minimum)commissions are the norm. In addition, if you ever make a claim, the actual warranty contract company will do everything to deny the claim. You’re better off putting that money aside for repairs.

We came to a point when it makes absolutely no point in changing the oil in your Ford engine, because you need to change the engine every 10k miles! Pathetic Ford!
