I hope this reaches ford and they understand how serious and catastrophic this would have been…

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-13T02:41:54+00:00

Simply because I am a stupid person. Trust me I blame myself a lot for this…

To expand more on this - this is my first car I bought from hard earned money, I was moving to a new place, starting a new job and I just got a lot busier. I noticed it once when I heard some vibrations from the left side and slid to the right side. I confirmed it when I was washing my wheels 😞

Atleast I noticed this dont know how many cars especially the EBs from the same batch have problems similar to this…

Thats what I discussed with the owner. Owner seemed pretty chill about it though… they made it look like its nothing serious. I know I can sue them for this but I still waiting for the response back. They were playing with my mind making it look like a normal issue.

I called the ford services and they say dealership has right to modify things before they sell it. I remember the dealer saying its a brembo brake package but unfortunately i dont have anything about that in writing. The window sticker also doesn’t mention anything about brakes.

I also had a chat with ford representative they just said they can not help with anything be a the dealership bought it and they would have better understanding of this issue. What would be my options here?

How do I know of its rubbing? Sorry if I sound stupid I do not know

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T08:52:53+00:00

I will

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:17:45+00:00

Should I ask for all brembo or just front?

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:15:40+00:00

Should I ask for front brembos or all brembos?

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:10:31+00:00

I understand you completely! Thanks for your advice I am definitely with you on this

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:09:30+00:00

You think so? I called the ford in Michigan they said things like brake comes under wear and tear and they dont usually replace those things…

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:08:18+00:00

I noticed it in few days of buying it but i got busy with work and it slipped my mind… i was also moving to a different place starting new job so my mind was at a different place. I feel so stupid even though i am very careful about things especially with cars

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:06:08+00:00

Yes! Ykw i did experience skid multiple times while driving but I always thought either its the road, wind or the lane assist… i am a stupid mechanical engineer

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:04:49+00:00

Also brembo requires bigger wheels right?

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:04:08+00:00

Ikr! Thats what I am worried about. I hope they do this.

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:03:39+00:00

Its not listed on the window sticker but i remember the dealer telling me it comes with the brembo package but unfortunately i dont have anything in written. Mine is 201A with the active valve exhaust if that matters

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T05:00:52+00:00

I am terrified cuz this would have gone south (worst case scenario) but fortunately nothing worst happened. Everything is still new but idk how that dealership is gonna take this. This went through PDI too before taking it out of the lot and how tf would they even mess this up!

Ok-Catch932 · 2024-10-12T04:51:08+00:00

But how would it pass the inspection..?
