I had to have the clutch replaced at 30K miles, and Ford added an extended warranty to the new clutch. I started experiencing the clutch issue again in January 2020, but couldn't take the car in right away. Then came Covid. Now that I can finally take the car in, the warranty has expired. It needs a new clutch again! Ford refuses to pay anything, despite claims that they were "making adjustments" because of Covid.
Ford quality has degraded to the point that their cars are no longer trustworthy. It has soured me on Ford for good despite owning Fords for over 50 years. I will never buy another Ford product again.
