Rep Power: 0 Wow, it only affected one f**king vehicle that got sold 
. The recall total was 25, but 24 of them were still on the dealership when they found the problem....I congratulate Ford for once for finding the problem before they sold them...grow up guys...

Rep Power: 400 My favorite is how Car and Drivel put the focus on their top ten list this year.
Even though the focus holds the record for most recalls of any car ever at 14. And 9 of them were this year alone. Oh, but wait, it's still one of the best buys you can get so let's put it in our top ten. Just more proof that C&D is revenue driven... period.
What's the 0-60 time on a ford focus?
I don't know, cuz it only takes 20 feet to get it into the service bay.

Rep Power: 0 Seriously, I'm not really a ford fan but they've got ***** to come out and fix something when it only affected 25 cars in the states. Every car has problems...... that comes with mass production. You want a car that doesn't have problems? Go drop a million on a new Mclaren, but don't gain any weight - your fat behind won't fit in the seat!

Rep Power: 0 I've always had good luck with fords.. my dad has a 97 Ranger (okay it's a mazda) with 1/4 million miles on it engine was overhauled once at 117K MILES. still runs great, Put the third set of shocks on it last week.
My uncle has driven fords since his first..never any major problems.
Ford's engineers poorly designed some parts here and there...mostly the electronics.. japanese are short and their eyes are closer to the curcuit boards.. caucasians are tall and lankey and are their are eyes are so far from the boards that their work is clumsy..(from a sony Commercial)
Did you guys hear about the civic that came off the parking lot with rust on the door sil??? or the one who's windhield cracked from making a turn at 40MPH on an off ramp??or the one who's front shocks blew..got them replaced and 4 days the front left replacement shock blew???....how about the one that had a crack in the exhaust manifold??.... all the same car... Mine all happened in the first year of owning it....some other people have had some lemon civics on this site too..ALL mass produced vehicles have their runaways.. Even the BMW 5 series had 5 recalls in it's last body style.

Thats actually from a 1992 movie called CRAZY PEOPLE, the movie is HYSTERICAL, it's about a ward at an insane asylum that starts comming up with commercials....
Some others are:
"Volvo, Boxy but Good"
and
"AT&T, we're tired of putting up with your $hit"

Rep Power: 0 Damn.. I heard about their cars being a lemon.
I mean... Toyota/Honda intensively tests their car before selling...
Can't Ford just find out what Toyota/Honda does that they don't do? For Christ sakes.. their department on need to be fired right now.
