I have a 2006 ford exploder that was put into service on the 19th of June in Canada. I am in the US now and took my exploder (yes I spelled it right) because there was a leak from the rear end. I was told that they had to replace the rear differential and was going to cost $600. I was told that there was no powertrain warranty because in Canada it did not start until July 13th of 2006. My truck was put into service barely a month before!!!! I have two imports with 132k and 88k and NO problems at all, this truck has 44700k. Furios about this!!!! It took Ford putting me on hold one time for 45 minutes then 30 minutes for a rude customer service rep to tell me it is not covered. Before I let the crooks at my local ford dealership do the work I took to a mechanic I trust and he told me it was just the seal or casket and will cost only about $75 to fix. I will NEVER NEVER NEVER by another car or truck from the US big idiots and I hope they and their union go bankrupt.
