Ford Warranty Question
I just purchased an 04 Screw FX4 with 27K on it and the power rear window does not work. After doing some looking on here I have determined that it is not the switch (due to the dome light slightly dimming when pushing the open button). This 04 was built in 04/04 so it is one month out of the 3 year warranty. Do you think that if I went to the Ford dealer and tried to get them to still cover it it would be worth a shot? ( oh and I bought this truck from a chevy dealer for 21k and they said they do not have the money in the truck to do the repair) I would assume that Ford is somewhat leaniant on the 3yr/36000 warranty?

doubt it will be covered. if you do a search on warranty repairs there is a number of people complaining that they were 7 days out of warranty and it was denied. Doesn't the warranty go from purchase date?

Is there anyway to find out the original purchase date? I assume the dealer could tell me but I like to know the answers to questions that I am going to ask them there... A way to keep them honest. :-)
