Thank God for Warranties

Took the rig to Ford today for the following items:

1. Airbag light on
2. Squeaky front hubs while in 4x4 and on the transition from 4x4 to 4x2
3. Pinging from the engine (most likely flutter, but I’ll wait to hear what they try and tell me).
4. Broken cup holder
5. Burning 2.5 quarts of oil within 3000 miles (which the tech told me was “normal”, ya, right!)

Still under warranty, of course. I might call them and add the squeaky front springs to the list tomorrow morning.

Let me know if I missed anything!

Ziess –

I have not heard about that one. Any more information you could give me?

By the way, I looked at your truck pictures…WOW! Say, how do you keep from punching a hole through that sub next to your seatbelt clasp?

Re: Thank God for Warranties

Thanks,
On some trucks the rear cab mounts pop occasionally when flexing the truck or on bad bumps...They probably fixed it on the new trucks though. The sub usually has a screen on it but I keep turning up the bass too loud and blowing the screen out. But I have never come close to hitting it because it is set back a good distance. Good luck with the warranty [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
