I recently bought a Ford F150 Pickup tuck from Gibson Truck World I was fully aware that the truck had hight milage on it, and after a few days i noticed the motor was making a ticking noise. So i called up Dudley the service magager @ Gibson and informed him of the ticking noise i was hearing, and that i would like to schedule an appointment to have it checked out. He called me a couple of days later and told me that all the parts he needed to do the repair had been order and had arrived at his shop, and he wanted me to bring the tuck up the following Tuesday to be repaired. The problem i have with this is, he had never seen the truck since the day i bought it, so how could he possibly know what parts to order for my tuck? Is Mr. Dudley a psychic? Did i just give a great description of the ticking noise, i am far from a mechanic so i doubt that. So the problem i have is how did he know what parts to order if he had not seen the tuck yet? I belive that Gibson Truck Word already knew about this problem and just wanted to pass the buck on to the seller.
And on a second note inreguard to some of the complaints i read on this site, if the carfax is free why do you need to ask for it, shouldnt Gibson Truck World want to willing provid this information up front? Why should u need to ask for a for it? Sounds fishy to me. If i were a car dealer and i provided free carfax reports i would go ahead and post it on every one of my 250 trucks.
So, im not trying to totally bash Gibson because they did offer to honor the so called 50/50. But im very pissed that they knew exacty what my tuck needed before ever taking a look at it.
Future buyers beware, in that stack of papers you will be signing when you purchace a truck, you acutally sign away your right to sue them WTF. Why would they do this if they stand behind there product? Its a litte fishy to me. Just Rember Talk it Cheap..
