A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
I am traveling from Canada to Florida for 6 months as per usual and up till this point, we loved our two new Ford Escapes. That was until we stopped for the night in Corbin Kentucky. We were booking our room and had to drive around the building to our room when I put my car in gear I could not turn the steering wheel at all and saw the light to service on. The tow truck was called and so was roadside assistance since the dealership will be closed for the weekend and the car can't be serviced until Monday! That in itself was a chore as it seemed like no one knows how to direct us as to what we must and or should do to apply to our situation.
We called Legacy Ford Monday morning to find that at 10am our car was still not looked at all!! We have to leave the rooms by 10am and this is just another added stress level that I can't deal with, as I suffer from PTSD. The thought of having to try to get help from the assistant who finally called back to say they can't find our account for service but was willing to give us $500 for lodging food and transportation.
This is now day 3 and we still have not heard about our car from Legacy Ford and have had to get the room for another night as we have no place else to go to. Ford should at least call us back to tell us an update and if we could have a car so we may at least be able to drive to a restaurant to get meals and medical supplies.
We have GRAVE CONCERNS that if this had of happened while I was driving thru the mountains it would have caused a TRAGEDY AND LOSS OF LIVES. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AND IT WILL. God hope the families that will be affected will sue the tires off of Ford for knowing in advance of DANGEROUS TECHNICAL BREAKDOWNS.
Please get this issue fixed expeditiously and make me a happy Ford owner again one with confidence in my cars.
