Thumbs down Ford Experience

Many folks had good luck with Irwin Motors and they do a lot of repeat business. I enjoy doing business with them but Ford products do not live up to my expectations. And when contacted, Ford Motor Company just give you a run around.

I bought a '79 Ford LTD from Irwins and three years later the rear wheel wells were comepletely rotted out and will not past inspection. I bondo the wheel wells and sold the car shortly after I was able to past inspection.

Fool me, I gave Ford another chance and bought an '94 Ford Bronco. At first I was blowing head gaskets like crazy until a factory rep suggested that the motor be replaced after I had sent an angry letter to Ford. Then I started having electrical problems and Ford extended the warrantee to 4 years bumper to bumper. Funny thing the Bronco lasted 4 years and the front seat fell through the floor! Ford refuse to pay for a new floor even tho I had a bumper to bumper warrantee. I ended up replacing the floor with sheet metal, hide the repair with the rug and traded it in for a Dodge. The Dakota is still with me and I have not had one trouble with it.

Poor Irwin Motors, they did their best to please me but their hands were tied because of defective products. I wish them well.
