- Hyattsvill, MD, USA
Since new the car made a strange back-ground noise, not typical of a standard manual transmission. Once a Ford mecanich took a drive with us to verify and agreed on the noise. After four times the problem is still there. Also the 4th gear is hard to shift and the reverse pops out. All the times we got the car back with the service paper stateing: Problem not found!. we drived a same model same year car at the gatewayford location and it didn't carry all that problems. Lately we ask the store manager some for help. He sad he'll have a Ford rappresentative to take a look at the car. Three weeks later we are still waiting. What shall we do?
