Bought a truck.... and everything went south
Ok guys here's the story. 2 months ago I bought a lifted 2001 F250 from a dealer in Richmond va that specializes in lifted trucks. It drove fine during the test drive and I ended up taking it home that day. A couple days later the transmission starts acting up.... wont go into gear and reverse is gone. the truck only came with a 1 month warrenty ( it has 241K on it... but its a 7.3). They told me take it to there transmission guy and have it fixed (the warrenty was a 50/50) I ended up paying 1200 out of pocket for a new tranny. get her home and she still doing the same thing!
I call the dealer and tell them to come get it cause Im not driving it anywhere..... they come tow it back to the transmission shop and a week later they call me and say its fixed. I just want them to keep the damn thing and give me my money back. this whole situation has been a nightmare!! |

imo, unless they replaced the transmission, they can keep it.

You bought it with 241k on it. It had a trans issue and they covered it 50%. Id say go pick it up and enjoy it. Those are great trucks. The 7.3 is a good unit. They do get injector and high pressure pump issues sometimes but man they are good trucks. Enjoy it.

I think I see the problem here.
We're talking about Ford here, right?
