Okay my husband bought me a 2000 navigator 11 days ago. The dealer promised us it was going to be in great running condition.And like idiots we signed a "sold as is" contract. They said there mechanic checked the car out when they bought the car and that he would check it again before we left with it (which he did not). ANYWAY starting the night we got it home it had problems. The heater quit working and we parked it on a downward hill and the car registered out of gas (which it wasnt) and it just cut off and we had to put it in neutral and coast it down the hill. Well we took it to a shop and got a heater coil replaced and got a radiator leak fixed. $1200.00 and we hadnt even had it 3 days. It';s all went downhill from there. the AC even just stopped working. we hadnt drove it anymore since that and we got in it to drive it and the car is making a constant crazy clanking/spinning noise i cant describe it and it did that in park drive neautral everything. well after that we decided to take it back to the dealer, well on the way we decided to go back to our house and pick up our other vehicle since we were dropping the navi off well we didnt so much as get it in park and it just cut off. it took about three tries to get it crunk back up. each of those failed times we had all power and it was turning over and making a crazy noise. well we got it crunk and the WHOLE truck starting to shake and bounce and it seemed like it was gaining and losing power fast and it was at 1000 rpms in park. we decided we better hurry and get it to the dealer. i got going down the road and it would not go over 15 mph and the service enging light came on and was blinking like crazy then the car felt like it jumped and went up to 30 mph then it lost it and went back down to 15mph. by the time we got it to the dealer it would barely move. now there mechanic and 2 others have looked at it and none of them what so ever can figure out what in the heck is wrong with it!!! and the dealer wont give us our money back or trade us for a diff car the only thing hes willing to do is let his mechanic fix it but WE have to pay for the parts and he just wont charge us labor???? and its been two days and all they keep telling us is there mechanic is "baffled" and "puzzled" and has pretty much no idea what is going on, Can anbody help me at all???

Replying to: madabtnavi (Jan 31, 2009 9:40 am) try and work with you. The dealer sold the car as used and you before making the purchase should have done more in checking this car our, and this you did not do. You were wrong in having repairs done, and going back to the dealer who sold you the car later for problems. This dealer may have made little money on this deal, and will not take a loss in make your repairs, so be nice and hope he will help or work with you.

| We've had our 2004 Navi for about a year. Our driveway is on an incline and on about 3 occasions the vehicle has rolled backwards after we have parked it and gone into the house. Ford service advisor cannot duplicate. A search of Ford/Lincoln tech service bulletins reveals nothing useful. Anyone have any words of wisdom about such a problem? | |

Replying to: AllroundfaN (Feb 03, 2009 12:37 pm) Clearly this is very unsafe, I am afraid to park my navigator on any type of hill for fear that someone will get hurt. The first time this happened son was still in the car! Has anybody else ever seen anything like this? If so how was it resolved? Many thanks.
