New truck problems

I bought a new F150 at the beginning of the month. It was purchased in Gulfport but they got it from another dealership. When it arrived the sunroof was cracked. To make a long story short they have attrmpted to fix it 3 times and it still has an air and water leak. Can I ask for a new truck?

Sure you can ask. You may or may not be successful.

Yea my parents almost disowned me for buying a ford. I think they might have been right.

I know this doesn't help your situation but sunroofs are dumb. No one uses them after the first couple months and they leak. I'll never buy a car with one.

I had a car with a sunroof. I didn't use it much but it never leaked

It all depends on the sunroof/moonroof manufacturer. I've had a moonroof in the last 8 vehicles that I have owned...I've never had one leak. Honda and Toyota just have better suppliers with tighter tolerances.

Because of a cracked sunroof that a dealer can't fix? Sound logic.

Looks like you will have a tough time getting a new one.
They will claim they have fixed it or will continue trying as an excuse.
It's hard to turn a car in after a month; I would think.
But good luck.

First problem: Should have gone with the 250. Second problem: The truck must not have a lift kit because you did not solve the first problem.
Third Problem: If you would have truck nuts, a salt life sticker and a "COUNTRY BOI" decal, nothing on the truck would ever break and a the sun roof would not be a worry.

Step One: Drive truck to Tiger stadium.
Step Two: Leave sun roof open because it never rains in Tiger stadium.

How do you flip off truckers?
OP: get an audience with the GM of the dealer where you bought the truck. Or contact Ford. I had a Yukon with a cracked dash - a known issue with '07s but well outside any warranty - I got on a GMC message board and got connected with a brand rep who got me a new one for free.

Look up lemon laws for Mississippi and go from there.

The lemon law states they can't keep it more than 15 days or fail to fix it after 3 attempts. You have to send a certified letter for the 3 attempt thing. They are coming to get it today which will be the fourth attempt at fixing it.
