Nov 19 2010, I visited Lasco Ford to see a '08 Ford Escape I looked it over and took a test drive, Immediately the front end had a pull and vibration, when I returned to the dealer the first thing i said was The front end has problems, The salesman said if i take care of it are you interested and I said yes. Bought the truck with a warranty. Took it a week later to get service which apparently they ""forgot"" to schedule 3 hours later it had an alignment but the front tires were the same. when asked about was told They're ""within spec"" and nothing on the sales order says they can be replaced.. after waiting an hour and a half and being forgotten..I spoke with the sales manager Jamin who said ""we fixed the problem the tires will wear in and smooth out"" WHAT? ""well my tire guy at belle tire said they'll be fine"" again what? why trying to push the blame on someone else. The tires are actually worn thru the wear bars on one side of the tire I shouldnt have even been allowed to drive on the road with it for a test drive and when the steering wheel VISIBLY shakes the problem wasn't fixed so apparenly fixing part of the problem qualifys as taking care of itin the eyes of Lasco Ford. NOw i get nervous and start looking over paperwork and find out MY FORD EXTENDED warranty is actually a third party warranty NOT thru Ford.So I have no idea what kind of coverage I'll really have. I'm 35 normally I purchase thru private sellers.This was my first and will be my last at a dealer. I thought the days of the LYING, CHEATING car salesman were gone in the ECONOMICS of today apparenly not the only thing missing from LASCO FORD is the checkered sport coat on the salesmen.
