Replying to: g45 (Mar 22, 2006 4:53 am) that way, where have you been. They all do this the Asians, Europeans, and Americans. I had an expensive Asian car, and had some problems with it, they stone walled me over, and over again because they could not figure out how to fix it.

Replying to: edwin10 (Apr 24, 2006 10:22 pm) "If you think Ford is the only one that treats customers that way, where have you been." Read my post again and tell me where I say Ford is the _ONLY_ company which treats its customers poorly. Nowhere did I write that. Your faulty interpretation of my writing is solely your own affair. Words have meaning; mine were carefully chosen. While I do not dispute your assertion that other manufacturers are sometimes abusive of their customers, be aware my post spoke only of treatment by FMC of FMC customers, one of whom was in this case the OP. I was sharply critical of Ford's idiocy, and I stand by that criticism. FMC falls easily within the topic set of this forum. My post was on topic and spoke directly to the matter raised by the OP. When I want to comment on OTHER manufacturers' actions, I will offer those comments in the appropriate venue. Regardless what others do, Ford needs to clean up its act and treat customers with respect. The sooner they face up to their failings in this regard, the more successful they will be. Period. |

If they don't give you a matching spare, why offer a full size spare on any car that comes with WSW from the factory? Sounds pretty silly to me. |

I purchased a set of Uniroyal tiger paw touring. The tire rides like a dream I’m confused about the tire pressure. The installer placed 38 psi in each tire. I told them ford recommends 32 psi. They told me never to go by what the auto maker recommends go by what the tire manufacturer recommends’. Now I can’t find any thing that tells me Uniroyal recommends 38 psi. The installer also told me that tires have changed since 2000 and the plate in my door jam is not to today’s standards. If the sticker on my door jam is incorrect wouldn’t Ford have to update all G/M owners? I’m curious what the 2005-2006 G/M tire pressure is? If any of you have tire experience and could assist me I would be grateful.

My 2004 CV LX Sport came with Goodyear Eagle LS tires, rode smooth...after 47000 miles, time to replace... Three weeks ago, I bought 4 of the new Goodyear Comfort-Tred Kevlar or Carbon tires, supposed to be Goodyear's best... Did not work for me...smooth as glass 0-40 mph, from 40-65 mph the seat shook like the rear tires were out of balance, and then from 65-80 mph, steering wheel started to shake... Took them back, they rebalanced them (did not see if they were out of balance) and I drove away, same exact problem at the same exact speeds... This morning I exchanged them for Regatta tires, a proven tire that I put on my Sable 3 year ago...drivers seat continues to shake on a smooth road, and the steering wheel shakes above 60 mph... Even with poor tread, the Eagle LS tires ran smooth up to 85 mph, the car ran true, so I do not believe it is wheel alignment, as the car continues to run straight on the hiway... Before I complain to Goodyear about these tires, any thoughts on what this could be???...I hesitate to think 2 sets of defective tires would land on my car, altho I do feel that Murphy and his Law are close friends of mine... |
