bought a fiesta st from ford on aug 28th 4.15pm. evans halshaw, wrexham

didnt drive it all weekend as i was selling my xr2i to meilack etc.

come monday morning 31st aug 0700 the windscreen was foggy, oh, "i'll use the quickclear" i said to myself.

however only 1/3 of the fucker worked. wtf? got out had a look, its a replacement windscreen by "UKG" glass, not pilkington like the rest.

phone ford tues 1st sept and say, "its not working i want to book it in, ive paid for a 2 year warrenty and ive only had it fuck all time".

"not a problem sir, book it in"

i had to fit it around work and having a courtesy car and having my new insurance docs through. so today (9th sept) it was booked for.

took the car in:

"its not covered by warrenty, sorry"

"yeah glass aint covered but i'd had it less than 72 hours and it was the first time i'd used it"

"nope sorry, £300, we dont check them, not part of the used vehicle check"



my arguement is that:

*i'd had the car less than 72 hours and hadnt used it

*should have been checked to make sure it works

*im buying from a ford dealership not a backstreet garage, hence inflated prices for "piece of mind"

so i went to furrows ford down the road from me, asked them what they would do, told me they would have done it as a kind gesture and suggested i take them to trading standards or dump the car on the forcourt and cancel the finance.

what to do?

oh check this, this is what my warrenty doesnt cover - £500 bastards.

the exact reason i got the 2i, as it got me away from dealers.

Useless fucking clueless money grabbing good for nothing low life cunts

feel for you mate

what you going to do?

sorry to hear that your having issues buddy, it really isn't good and doeswn't put ford dealerships in a good light

yourself and meilack haven't had much luck with them!

i'd go to them say if it aint fixed your going to trading standards, see what they say and do then

im trying to find a head office number but cant, its so annoying.

also:

no stamp in service book.

oil only on half dipstick

water on min

2 screws missing from airbox cover, another half screwed in.

That warrenty isn't worth the paper it's written on.

What is the point in going to a main dealer? They don't even employ grease monkeys who know what they're doing!

Most dealers =

The ford garage near me is really good, that good that my car still goes.

All the problems you ST owners have...

Good lad, saying that its only because I don't have a heated windscreen to break.

In all honesty I would get it removed, my dad has a Mk6 fiesta and all I can see is the bloody wires.
