Had all new lines put on last August, new seals in compressor and told it is all good. Found it was not working a couple weeks ago at same time they told me that rear springs broken, ball joints worn out and bearing going on axle.
Pretty sad considering its never been off road or driven hard.
Dumped it at used dealer for a used Nissan, will never buy Ford again !!!
They gave me $5000 for an SUV with 110,000kms, loaded. No wonder the foreign car companies survive while the big three are dying.

A/C compressor has failed and had to be replaced every 2 years. Now that I'm on my 3rd compressor and the extended warranty has run out, the entire A/C system has to be replaced
