Purchased brand new 2005 XLT 4X4, 27-Jul-05. It has been out of service
for 18 days and counting due to the following reasons:
Advanced trak warning light (fixed = replaced computer module)
Service Engine Light on (fixed = replaced sensor)
Gas guage goes to "E"
The last item we are being told is due to sulphur that was in the
gasoline when vehicle was originally tanked up in Detroit. The fix is
replacing the fuel sensor. Should we be worried about further related
issues?
The dealership has informed us that Ford is now giving us an extended
warranty free of charge which makes us suspicious.
Has anyone had any issues with the gas guage /fuel tank sensor on a
2005? How about dealing with a possible brand new lemon? (Per the
Calif code, a new vehicle can be deemed a lemon if out of service for a
cumulative of 30 days.) Any assistance is really appreciated. LW
