My brother used to be a ASE Ford certified technician. He found so much BS happening that he eventually quit. He says that 5 out of 10 people that paid for a transmission rebuild got a flushed out tranny that was washed with parts washer. There's only a difference of about $2500 between the two services.He also said that the vehicles he worked on the most were the Focus models.Complete transmission failure with an avg of 1000 miles on the whole car. Used to do about 10 a week. He has told me that there are no good dealerships at all. They all rip people off or they dont make money. If you ***** enough you can get a 1990 lexus warrantied at a ford dealership.
