    Peeling Trim A-Pillar

    My A-Pillar - Replaced Mine was a little loose when I received the Limited. It flew off the car, last month, at about 70 mph on I-10. No way to stop - so just drove on. Took it to the dealer - he told me I was the fourth of the day. Ordered the parts but forgot the clips. Make sure they...

    Other vehicles you considered before buying the 2011 X

    Spent a year looking I spent a year looking... During the past year (2010): Drove and tested Honda Pilot - nice but no new tech like Ford. Dealer here has some issues. Drove and tested 4Runner - sales people were jerks and were more insterested in going home than seeing me after...

    Price My price was $41,680 got them down to $39,990. This is before the rebate. I did order the bucket seats in back, my ford touch with sony, black interior, with no roof rack. The factor still put it on but saved me $160. I never put anything on top of the vechicle. I had three...

    Duped into phony 'factory order'

    It is worth the wait.... You are not alone…. My suggestion 1. Speak with Owner of Dealership 2. Get back $500 deposit - you can go to any Ford dealer and pick one up 3. Call Corporate they will send you a piece of paper worth $750 - $1000 off the price of your car. No gimmicks. My...
