[QUOTE="mapolley07, post: 3145661, member: 575458"] So I took my Mom's Ford Freestar minivan to the Ford dealership today to have a leaky brake caliper replaced under warranty. Its an '05 model with 35,200 miles on it, so we understood that it was covered under warranty and that it would be taken care of free of charge under Ford's 3year/36k warranty. Well I walked back home after I dropped it off (dealership is just around the corner from me), and then I get a phone call from the dealership. My parents bought the car used about 18 months ago, with about 19k on the ODO, and it had previously been an Enterprise rental car. Well the service manager told me that the original date of purchase was 7/9/04, and the warranty had expired by being over 3 years. The effing warranty is expired by[B][I] 2 WEEKS[/I][/B]. Now this SOB of a brake caliper is going to cost $200 plus tax.
