Finally, after a page and a half of generalized Ford hate, a reasonable response.
Why exactly should a random new car dealership selling the same brand of car that you bought as a used car over the internet instead of from them or even any other brick and mortar dealership, bend over backwards to move you to the front of the line ahead of their paying customers who've actually bought vehicles from them?
I know you included other brick-and-mortar dealerships but this attitude runs rampant in most dealership service departments regardless of where you bought the vehicle. Even more so is the attitude that the dealership is somehow doing you a favor when doing warranty work. Even when you did buy it from a particular dealership most still suck at service. Guess who doesn't care where I bough my car? My indy shop. My attitude is dealership service centers are their own worst enemies and they get what they deserve - disloyal customers who only want to go there if it's free.
It's a circular argument...they lie, cheat and steal because no one wants to do non-warranty work with them because they lie, cheat and steal.
