Been kinda keepin it quiet cause i didnt want to cause any problems for myself.
Went to court yesterday, April 1st (of all days), vs Ford. It was me vs Ford Motor Company in a Lemon Law Dispute. I paid the State of Texas $35 and they took charge of the case and told me what steps to take. Texas dont mess around with that kind of stuff, very aggressive! Been in the works now for about 2 months. Ford has reprogrammed, test drove (over 1000 miles), ran all kinds of tests and had it in their possession for 3 of the last 6 months. I got it back the last time and drove 1 tank of diesel thru it and parked it. It has sat since then. Anyhow, i get the papers that we are to go to court on the first. I took my wife, because she drove it more the last 2000 miles than i did. And i took my father-in-law cause he was a Ford mechanic and has been a mechanic for 40 years, as a witness. We had about 30 trees worth of paperwork (wanted to be fully prepared).
We went in and told nothing but the truth, i had no reason to lie. Took my side about 45 mins to tell the whole story.
Then the Ford Rep got up there, very sad! First thing she asked was about the farm tags on the truck and why i have them if im a salesman for a concrete pumping company. Told her i got them after i quit drivin it (cheaper while it was sitting) and that i had got a company truck. So then i see all her paperwork - it has all kind of sticky notes on it that says 'Read This'. She said she had never done this before. Her statements did not match the paperwork that we give the judge. He was reading EVERYTHING anybody gave him, fully. He was askin about codes, whats pcm and the such, and she couldnt answer him confidently. He even frowned at her a couple times. I almost felt a little bit sorry for her til i remembered why i was there!
Anyhow, bout an hour and fifteen mins after court started it was over, that included introductions and closing statements (remember, mine took 45 mins).
The judge said the law allows up to 60 days to make his decision, but he said he would be alot faster than that.
Tryin not to get my hopes up to much but it looked real good in there to me. If, for some reason, he decides i have to keep the truck, i WILL be doing the works to this truck, all emissions will be removed. I will not be concerned with warranty because since Nov 07 the warranty aint done me any good anyhow.
Will let y'all know the outcome as soon as i know!!

 

 

I have a 2008 f350 6.4 with 76000 miles on it. I had no problems until 8 weeks ago and then the problems began. Running down the road about 75 miles an hour and all of the sudden it loses power and drops to 30 mph. It has been in the shop for the last 8 weeks with a few days here and there back in my possesion. It has had the radiator, exhaust sensors, high pressure fuel pump, Hepa particulate filter, and all ford updates done to it. It has completely shut down and had to be towed once. Ford doesn't have a clue what to do.
Any thoughts????

 

upgrade would be a dodge cummins stock even

 

If I was you I would check with the department of transportation in your state. Texas has a Lemon Law department. We paid them $35 and told them what was up and they took it from there.

 

My 2008 F-250 hasn't had any problems, BUT I've only had it for 5 month & 3 weeks and a total of 8,700 miles ????

 

we got an 08 with the 6.4 and it has gone in twice.. first time for reprograming and second for a leaky radiator hope everything turns out for the better

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

oh and it has about 69000 miles on it

 

Any word???????

 

Still waitin to hear - he said by law he has 60 days but told me it would be sooner - I wish it was now!!
