The Great Thorn

Karen Y. There is a good reason I call myself "The Great Thorn" after reading what I have posted here you will understand. If your car had less then 36,000 miles on it or it was less then 3 years old the warranty should have taken care of your wiper motor. Some car dealers like to do what is called "Double Dipping" this takes place all the time. Car dealer knows you have a warranty and gets you to THINK that it will not cover your problem, gets you to pay for the repair and then gets the maker to pay too. In short, car dealer can get paid twice to do one job, FAST EXTRA BUCK! You must also remember that most car makers create a customer relations department so they can have a controled pipeline as to what they will and what they will not do for their customers. Car maker big shots like their big fat pay checks and yearend bonuses, Bonuses like you might say $500,000 or maybe even more, so they must make sure that people at the bottom are not leaking money out the back door through their controled pipeline. $500,000 is the same as $9615 a week. Not bad for big money. Most controled pipelines are filled with corporate employees that have big wads of peanut butter in their ears. In other words, The really don't care about the $224 that you had to spend. Email Angela Coletti a direct link to your Rip Off Report. She works in Ford's Global News department.
