My car repair escapade

[YankeeVol]

So I got stuck in Memphis an extra day to have my car "fixed". Now I'm sitting on the side of the road waiting on the tow truck to take me back to the dealership that "fixed" said car. This should be interesting

 

[utvolpj]

what kind of car and what was the issue they "fixed" the first time?

 

[YankeeVol]

2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid. The water pump

 

[golfballs]

It's Bush's fault

 

[milohimself]

Why is a car that new having issues with the water pump? wth

Even if it's a Ford

 

[YankeeVol]

I haven't the slightest. Now it has no power and it may be a battery issue. F*** Ford

 

[MG1968]

Too slow.


Sorry to hear about your troubles. I am sure the defective part will be taken care of.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

It's Bush's fault

Actually it's LeBron's fault.

Another Hybrid battery going into the dealer's dumpster.

 

[YankeeVol]

The technician. It was two different lights though. The one that came on Sunday wasn't the one that came on today

I don't care, I didn't have to pay for it. It's just annoying

Nerd agrees whole-heartedly that Fords are inferior construction. He will never admit to it, though.

So I made it 9 miles from the dealership this time.

I've always maintained that if you buy domestic, chevy is the way to go. All domestic products are going to fall apart prematurely, gm at least had the good sense to make their cars easy to work on

Check the lemon law. If it breaks down three times you get a new car?

 

[YankeeVol]

I've had the car since August last year and never had a problem until Sunday. Now it's 3 times. So I'm stuck in Memphis again. At least the dealership is footing the bill for the hotel room

 

[YankeeVol]

Seriously though, when (if) I get back to SC I'm trading it in for a Honda or Toyota
