Here we go......
Friend at the Ford dealer tells me they lemon lawed 4 cars since 1st of January. 3 for parts that are not available yet.
The latest was a C-Max electric wannabee that needed a module, Ford said 2 year wait for the part. This on a car in service for 3 months. Dealer simply lemon lawed the POS.
I work on European junks everyday all day. I do see that some parts are simply not available any longer. Last week I had a 2006 VW Rabbit that needed a 3rd brake light LED assembly. The part is available but the air deflector that the light sits in is NLA. Since the spoiler is glued to the car I shipped to a bodyshop where they abruptly broke the spoiler in 2 pieces trying to remove it. Glad I didn't tackle it.
Yes very sad these days. Who's going to support this stuff when it gets old? NOBODY unless it's highly sought after vehicle. Cars are appliances in the end.
