The vehicle was in motion at the time of failure, in a hilly service area, which placed my driver in a dangerous situation. Many in our industry have experienced this issue and knew it was a defect. Several pleas to the dealership resulted with no help at all this is a clear defect that ford has been aware of, however when I repeatedly appealed to fords customers service department related to the above reference engine issue, I was denied repeatedly and intentionally disconnected on one occasion. It is my belief that fords representatives have been attempting to delay or refuse to pay the engine claim. I have numerous items to attach, however your site will not allow. Please send me an email and I can send the rest of my documentation. I was able to attachthe mechanics report and our reward letter.
