Seriously....when a tranny dies at 24,000km and I get told 'these things happen' why on earth would I support Ford again!?!?

Ford spends all this money, time, and effort into things that are not the biggest concern..

but whatever...you are pro-Ford..

I am not ..

thats it!

I fully admit I am "pro Ford". But I also admit that Ford has its problems and I also admit that it can improve.

By the same token, you should admit that the Focus transmission is far from unreliable. Taurus and Windstar AOXD trans, had a deserved bad rep. But not the Focus.

So some idiot shrugged it off, when you got your tranny replaced, presumeably under warranty. If said idiot is a dealership employee, he isn't even a Ford employee, he's a dealership employee.

Ford has been improving its reliability.

No car manufacturer makes 100% problem-free cars. Even Toyota has had recall after recall this year. To think that Ford is the bottom of the barrel is simply delusional.
