Ford Buy Backs?

Hi,
Well I'm happy with my truck when it runs right. Mine was built Jan 5, 2003, one of the first ones
I have 35,000+miles, it's been reflashed 17 times, and milage is down to 15, when it was new out of the box it got 17.5 at 75MPH.
The reflash and in about a week and ahalf it goes back to the same old problems; smoke, gutless, rough idle-cold or warm, noisey, surges when cold, rear main leaks.

I have had it in the shop for the same problem 10 times, each time it runs good but not for long.

How many times must the truck go in the shop before it qualifies for the buy back?

Help, where do I go to get Ford to buy mine back?

One of the most important things you need to remember is information, go armed with knowledge…. not anger. Andy is absolutely correct, do a search and read read, read.
Try this one to start.
