Ford Car Reviews


Recommended Posts

been using expedition since 2000 and mine is one trusty, durable and comfortable ride; also have been very fortunate with the parts that needed replacements since downtime has been kept to a minimum by the trusty ford alabang dealership. the caveat tho' on some parts will really tick you off, for example, the panel glass holder in the power window mechanism in the driver side will set you back 37,000php. yes you read it right 37,000php for a mere window panel glass holder, wondering why? because ford by its sheer genius, doesnt make that holder part but instead they will prompt you to purchase the whole set- meaning including the glass panel, what morons!!!!!! lucky for me that glass panel holder i needed replaced was able to be copied by a steel machine shop fabricator and just paid 1,000 bucks for the two pieces glass holder i need.

was listening to mo twister on the radio 2 weeks back and he was complaining of his brand new vehicle having a busted taillight. when he went to the dealer to complain about this, he was told that that part wasn't available and that he should wait for 3-4 weeks while they ordered it. mo couldn't believe that he has spent millions of pesos for a brand new car and immediately, something gets busted. but what really aggravated the situation for him was the non-availability of the part.

 

to pacify mo, the people at the dealer consented to his suggestion that the part needed be taken from the same brand new vehicle sitting in their display. haha!

 

initially, mo didn't want to identify the make of his car. but after some prodding, he told his listeners that what he had was a 2010 expedition.

 

now a listener also called and said the same sad experience they had with their new expedition- after just 2 months, the vehicle breaks down. after bringing it to the casa, ford informs them that the part needed was unavailable and needed weeks to deliver. wtf?! i just couldn't recall who reported their dilemma with ford first- mo or the caller.

 

having heard that, i don't know what to make of ford. afterall, my best bud has had 2 everests, one after the other, and swears by them. it's probable that the u.s. assembled fords are lame and the asian assembled ones are well built.

 

 

It's probable that the parts from the US are not shipped by air. So it takes a longer time getting the parts here. There's also the forex and tax complications since the parts are from the US.

 

The pickup and Everest are from Thailand, as well as the Fiesta, I think.

 

I'm not sure if the Focus is being assembled here.
