[QUOTE="NC Cobra, post: 3089960, member: 4535"] I agree with ShelbyGuy. In fact, that was my exact argument I made to Ford. The part that failed should never have failed but there are always going to be isolated cases where this happens no matter what. There was nothing I did to cause my engine failure, nor was there anything I could have done differently to prevent it. I have a good friend that is a mechanic for a large BMW dealership. You would be surprised how many engines they replace but you don't hear many people talking smack about how crappy BMW's engines are. BMW's are not crappy, neither are Fords. The way I see it is Ford realized my problem was not my fault and that is why they were willing to make me the offer they did. While everybody in this forum may not agree that the offer from Ford was "good", I think it was. They could have simply said no and what recourse would I have had? I love my Cobra and have no plans of driving anything else. The dealer I use for my service has always taken great care of me even though I did not even buy the car there. After my "separation" from my Cobra for almost a month I can't wait to get it back. [/QUOTE]
