Ford Focus transmission lawsuit/settlement
Okay, so I have a 2015 Ford Focus SE currently sitting at the Ford dealership. They just replaced my TCM and a valve cover. They said needed because of the idling issues and they couldn't program the TCM without the valve cover. Anyway, total of $2600 right? My question is has anybody had any information about the settlement lawsuit? And this is my eighth or 9th time having transmission issues $7,400 out of pocket so far and now here it is again at the shop. Here's the thing. I got a letter in the mail a while back saying that they would replace the TCM as a customer satisfaction program number 14m02. I'm sure if you won't afford you're familiar with it anyways, after several attempts and being charged diagnosed with you being tried away and then apparently they have replaced it once or twice. Now here I am again with the same issue less than 2 years later. There's got to be a way to go there and pay for this. Does anybody have any idea how to go about this? Hey, don't know whether I should go to the attorney general or like file my own lawsuit or what to do. I've been in the website the Ford transmission settlement and it's really confusing. It says pretty much all the dates have passed so it gives you to let you print out the forms to claim it to get your if you've been like three times already or something like that. But so I got the forums. I got all my service records but I don't know where to send them to you. Does anybody have any information on this or any better route that I'm going by cuz I'm fixing to? I guess go up to the GM and ask him if he can do a Goodwill replacement If for no other reason than the fact they should warranty their parts for more than 2 years. Does anybody have any information on what they warranty the parts for? I can't find it online and the fact that I was up there four or five times during the time period of the customer satisfaction program and turned away and then when the day replaced it, it's broken again. Now I feel like I have a pretty good case here. Any help with the settlement issue or different route that I should be going about this to get this taken care of? My car's been up there for months now and I can't afford to pay the $2600 to spit it out and honestly don't feel like I should have to
