It took from March 10 til April 24 to get the repairs completed. I got the estimate 2 weeks before I left my car and was given the March 10 drop off of car.

I’ve already spread the word of how things have played out.

Repair Quality

The repair itself took about two weeks. I pick my vehicle up on Tuesday and notice the headlight assembly did not work. Turn signal intermittently and so was the headlight. Called them they said to bring it in so Wednesday I did that and was told the headlight would be in tomorrow. Thursday still no headlight and told it would be tomorrow. Friday still no headlight and was told it would be Monday. So Monday I took it back and waited an hour to install the new headlight assembly. About an hour and 20 mins later they came and said that didn’t fix the problem. So they ordered another assembly that will be here tomorrow. Tuesday called and it wasn’t there. It will be tomorrow. Wednesday called and it was there, but didn’t fix the problem. So they ordered a module and it will be here tomorrow. Called Thursday and it came in but didn’t fix the problem. At this point I spoke to Steve at the ford store and found out the problem. The collision center tried to install the old module that would not program instead of the new one. Once the new one programmed correctly it still didn’t work. Green corrosion was then noticed on the plug of the vehicle that had only 8k miles on it. This was then cleaned off, and corrected the problem. Cliff was good the whole time except the last day when he became defensive when I was asking questions as to why nothing was working. This is then how I made contact with Steve. In the end I’m glad that after two weeks, tomorrow since the car was originally “fixed” did in fact come. It has only been an hour and we will see if the problem is in fact corrected. However, I think an in service training and/or policy change needs to happen in order of diagnosing and having new parts and old parts in the same general area. This would cut down on accidentally installing the old part again, which happened in my case. In addition, the paint job is mediocre with orange peeling noticeable with swirl marks on the bumper.

Customer Service

At first customer service was excellent. Later on when things couldn’t be corrected, and new parts order I was told they’re paying out of pocket or parts, out of pocket for the rental and “what else do you expect from me?” This is after the insurance had already paid by the way. Cliff became defensive when I questioned why my lights weren’t working. I had to end up being directed to Steve.
