Stupid is as stupid does?

Buster's truck has had some issues lately. We had no idea that it had issues until we were going downtown and were stopped by a cop. The brake lights didn't work. So, he tried to fix it at home, no luck. He made an appointment to get it to the local Ford house to get it fixed. He called them telling them that his brakes worked fine, but the lights wouldn't come on. They said "bring it in at 8am and we'll get it fixed." ok. I took him to work that morning after he dropped off the truck and he called them at lunch to find out if anything is done. "Haven't got it in yet.We'll call you in about an hour." Hours passed, no call. He called them at 4pm. "Yes sir, your truck is ready to be picked up. It's $197.00 for the new fuel pump." Buster said "%#@&*!!!! I didn't need a new fuel pump. I need the brake lights fixed!" IDIOTS.


The next day, he called them again "Did you get my truck fixed yet?" "No, we have 5 ahead of you." Buster then says "Look, I took my truck in when you told me to. I told you what I needed, you guys gave me something I didn't need and I expect this truck fixed TODAY. Get it done." So, they moved him ahead of the others and got it in.


After he gets home (he wasn't charged for the fuel pump), he checks the brake lights to see if they work.....NOPE! NOTHING WAS DONE!

So, the moral to this story is: DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE TO THE FORD PLACE IN WILLISTON, ND!

  1. Ugh! My keyboard does not want to type what my brain is thinking when I see stuff like this - I *hate* having to deal with stupid car junk! Hope they will get it fixed right!

  2. Well, he's getting it fixed, but he's doing it himself. After he got mad and gave up on the Ford place, we looked online for a solution by typing in "What causes break light to stop working in a Ford F150?" and boom, there it was. LOL. He's temporarily fixed it and will order a part today.
