Useless ford dearlers

[alpineau]

Now i am ****ed i took my car into ford yesterday to get a logbook service @ $157 deal they have going. When i arrived they put the car up on the hoist and had a look over the usual things like breaks and looking for oil leaks, after that they asked me how long it had been since the brakes had been bled and i told them not since i have had the car (2 years now). I was told that it was worth while getting the system flushed and i thought bugger i will get it done aswell.

This is where is starts to annoy me i asked them not to change the spark plugs as they had only just been done so what do they do change the bloody plugs. To add to that i asked them not to rotate and balance the wheels because that had also been done recently, well i get a call mid morning form them asking where the key is for the lock nut so the can rotate the wheels so for the second time i tell them to leave the wheels alone.

So in the afternoon i get a call telling me my car is ready to be picked up so i go in and get the bill handed to me $426.05 buy this time i was ready to kill them so to save face i just paid the bill and walked out.

Now this is where the real problem is as i drove out of the car park i felt my breaks where really spongy like they had air in the break lines so i called up as soon as i got home and what a surprise no one is answering the phones. This morning i bled the brakes and got a heap of air out of the lines but breaks are still spongy so back to ford on Monday

I have a few more issues but i will leave those for another time. But just a general warning do not take you car to the Carmichael Ford dealership in Townsivlle
