    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    I hear you. This awkward dance of you, techs, and warranty coverage gets to be so frustrating. Instead of just solving the problem there are all these hoops to jump through and so many opportunities for error or misdiagnosis. You can sense the solution but you have to end up being the one to...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    Preach. That’s how I’ve been with all my other cars. Were always older cars that I did all the maintenance on my self (‘68, ‘98). Cheaper cars, lower stakes. I had the time and would get the tools. Given that I couldn’t fathom owning a 350 without a warranty, especially now, felt like this...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    That last statement hit home. I love mustangs but have had a terrible time with what should have been my absolute favorite car. I wanted to believe the 1% rareness of issues with 350s but that doesn’t matter when you are the 1% (I believe its so much higher). And thank you for the info on the...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    Had met with the tech and talked for half hour when new engine arrived. Great guy, wanted to take his time and insure everything was right. I said it’s ready when it’s ready take your time. I felt confident. I’m honestly not mad at the tech, just the situation. I know how much work there was...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    This is exactly where my head is at right now. Been a long time Ford fan but a Z06 or ZL1 is looking like the perfect palette cleanser assuming the LT4 is reliable. Mustangs were my first love. My first and second cars were mustangs (‘68, ‘98 Cobra). Went from so excited to so low with this...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    Never would have imagined the splitter was so complicated. Here I thought I’d done my homework on the issues with these cars. Car is back at dealer now, fixing both issues and writing up a buyback. Met with service manager and dealer manager together when I pulled in. Not sure what direction...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    Buyer will have an excellent history. I have all the service records, tons of pictures, including the new motor w/ build date. But I’m not giving it away it’s a solid car just a really terrible dealership experience. It’s actually better than new now. I put brand new Michelin Pilot Super...

    GT350 Dealer Nightmare Part 2 (3 Month+ Engine Replacement & More)

    Was just about to post a follow-up to my 3 month and counting Ford dealer situation as the engine was finally disassembled and the warranty company field inspector approved it’s replacement. I just got the car back with the new engine and thought I’d post the good news and close the loop on...

    GT350 Dealership Nightmare (2 months without car still)

    It’s Zurich. I found when calling them directly and asking for clarification. They actually seemed pretty responsive. They said it took 2 weeks before dealer contacted them after I gave them the car. Then it took about 45 days from when Zurich asked for internal engine pictures and when they...

    GT350 Dealership Nightmare (2 months without car still)

    I honestly thought I’d read eveything, even told the finance guy to step out while i looked everything over. That’s why I was surprised when I found out from the service manager after the fact. I don’t know if it was a bait and switch like I’ve heard about (use dealer‘s own third party instead...

    GT350 Dealership Nightmare (2 months without car still)

    Hi guys, sorry for the long post but this whole thing has been going on for over 2 months now with no real end in sight. Was pointed here by others to get opinions on the situation from those with experience. Thanks in advance. TLDR: bought my dream car and it turned into a nightmare. Was...
