Signs of Ford Collapse

[VicBee]

The first time it was like 3 days once they got the parts.

the second time i put the car back to Tesla.

I had one other mechanical problem which was a circuit board went out. They did send me a loaner model
s while they worked on that. (About a week).

Sounds like my experience with my Porsche. Bought 2nd hand, less than 10k miles before warranty expiration. A couple months in, with less than 4k left on the warranty, I find an engine leak, take it to the dealer who keeps the car several days, but not long enough to get a loaner. I get the car back but 2 months later the engine has new problems. Take it back to the dealer where the car stays 3 weeks. I get a loaner for 2.
Through this ordeal I pay nothing, all under warranty and insurance coverage; but in 6 months I drove the car maybe 3 months and decide to sell it back to the dealer that sold it to me. Swore never to buy a Porsche again.

Porsches are known to be good quality. It’s a shame yours didn’t work out.

What year and model?

No, Porsche are known to be great sports cars and expensive. You assume they are good quality.

interesting. My 1984 911 is not a pedigreed car but it’s bullet proof. More reliable than any other car I have.

1984.... Nice! But they don't make them like they used to anymore.
The greatest myth is that euro -and German cars in particular- are the best quality cars in the world. Every survey I've looked out have East Asian cars as most reliable, and for many years. And I say that as someone who has bought German cars for years.

I would agree with that.
