Glad you agree. Crap quality my I love mine and when I buy another car I will be keeping the Turbo. Just to good to trade.You could buy a commondore or a crappadore. If you have a good example, and there are plenty out there, then good for you. However for those who have to live with a bad one, simple saying sell it is an easy, glib response that does nothing to address or satisfy the dilemma that these poor bugggers face.How much could you afford to lose by selling your car at less than two years old? Wouldn't you want your car to be everything you expected at the time of deciding to put your money down?There are simply too many problems with the BA to be acceptable. Especially with Ford stonewalling and refusing to even admit there are problems in some cases. In others, when they do admit a problem exists, they are strapped to actually fix it because of backlog of orders for the necessary components. Some customers are being asked to wait up to six months to have their cars fixed. Even worse, many cars that are supposedly fixed turn out not to be - with the same problem recurring several times.Like I say, if you're happy that you have a good car BUT don't criticise or belittle those who have genuine unresolved issues.

Fair comment. I guess with a mass produced car there will be problems and there will always be lemons that get through. I would be annoyed as well if ford arent fixing genuine problems as that is what the warranty is for.I just think the BA is a bloody good car and I am not convinced that the quality is crap.Sorry if I belittled you as that was not my intention. Hope you get your problems fixed though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
