I prearranged to have service on my F150 while I was

I prearranged to have service on my F150 while I was going to be out of the country for a week. Despite prior communication, when I left it for service I had to explain everything over again. Then while travelling en route abroad, I received a phone message confirming my request (3rd conversation) and then telling me there would be a $155 for evaluation, for each complaint. The service requested was for running boards that no longer retract and were frozen in the down position and a jammed tailgate ladder release mechanism. They determined both needed replacement: $1936.47 for the tailgate release and $2484.22 for the power running boards. In addition, they did a multipoint inspection and 5 items that 'may need performed for maintenance, to the tune of $1276.38 ( including $510 to replace the spark plugs!!). I declined all services, as spending $4400 for retractable running boards and a tailgate step which are not necessary seemed excessive. I asked to just disable the running boards, so I don't have to hear the motor constantly trying to retract the boards while driving. I ended spending $342 just to tell me what I already knew for 'diagnostics' and to top it off they would not accept a credit card without an additional 3% fee! So, I couldn't prepay and pick the truck up Sunday night but had to get a lift Monday morning to pay with a check to avoid additional unnecessary cost. And to rub salt in the wound, the motor for the running boards still is constantly trying to retract the boards while driving.....

10000 mile checkup was performed well.

10000 mile checkup was performed well. Does that check up not include a standard software review? The software problem was not fixed.

I believe that I've already responded to this survey some

I believe that I've already responded to this survey some time ago. Service was quick and very professional. My only surprised that you used oil that was not fully synthetic. Didn't know there was a blend. If Lincoln put it in it must be ok to use. Next time I will ask for fully synthetic. Technical provided me with my last service report and also provided me a list of future service recommendations. The best part of this service was it was my first one and it was Free.
