Nothing like a Ford Taurus Loaner Car...
I picked up my '02 C32 2 weeks ago with 41k miles and the car is great. It's in great shape. It has a factory warranty and I bought another that lasts untill 2011. Everything works except for a few silly quirks. Nothing to complain about to the normal driver, but I want as close to perfection as I can get, I guess. So I made a small list and took it to the dealership and picked up my loaner.
List:
Slight Tranny jerk 1500-2000 rpms
Navi works with certain discs and not others
CD changer works at will
Right blinker inop
Slightly off alignment
Shift knob plastic cover is loose
I got the call today that they are replacing the transmission, radiator, blah blah, same story. Also replacing the navigation, shift knob, performing alignment, and a few other small things. All at no cost to me.
Hey, at least the Taurus gets good gas mileage. :p

covers just about everything save for certain wear items. It's very comprehensive.

Dealership that sold it to me also does the work on site, or they send it to the MB dealership. Either is nice.
