Ford reported its second-quarter financial results this week and revealed that recall and warranty costs hit $2.3 billion over the last three months, costing the company $25.5 million a day.

I mean, any firings on the top? Change in direction? Some serious soul-searching? Or we will just continue doing bad, pretending business as usual, until everything falls apart?

Another earnings miss. Warranty costs off the chart. Continuing to double down on EVs even though they are losers. Farley has bumbled and stumbled his entire time. There has been almost no good news for the company since he took over. He has to go... — read more 

Looks like Ford is the next disaster story.

Anyone that could let know about the base salary ranges for LL4 and LL3 levels at Ford ? Bonus ranges too.

That’s not saying much, Farley was COO then, VP Marketing before that. Any differences are NOT improvements. He is having a hard time reading his earnings call script, must be rattled. Maybe both Farley and Old Joe will resign tonight!

I mean, really?

Earlier this year, Farley stated that there has beena team with the best engineers in the world to develop cheap EVs to compete w Tesla and BYD. Do they hire people for this project or did find the pearls in the existing Ford teams? In fact, they... — read more 

So it seems the super duty is heading to oakville. Might be a smart decision, but it's sad that ford only knows how to build trucks. Also where is u759 going?

TL;DR: Ford Ion Park posted a job with a compensation level of HTHD GSR 7-8 ($93,900-$188,400). After interviews, they offered me $97k and a $5k signing bonus. When I negotiated, they rescinded the offer, citing cost of living in Michigan and... — read more 

Wow. Talk about throwing the towel. Ford executives can hide all they want but the BEVs are not selling at all for them to offer this zero financing. Thanks Farley for putting all our eggs in one bev basket.

If ford can build an ESUV like the KIA EV9, I would be impressed. This SUV quality is way beyond the Japanese vehicles, so I won't even mention the Big 3.

Any more info on this????

I left Ford nearly 20 years ago. A friend told me Ford and GM no longer respect Mechanical Engineers - they just want EE and Software Engineers. WTF? Are any mechanical engineers high demand/high pay?

Thinking about moving back to ford. I was in ford's NGV project and left before it was spun off into Argo AI. Argo AI is now dead and ford abandons L4. It now seems repurposed to L2 via Latitude.AI. I just applied for an AV position @ "Ford... — read more

We spend all day trying to get customers on Ford Pass And the Account Manager Online account system more than anything else and believe me it is frustrating for all of us. and anyway IT isn’t in the U. S. Anymore. INDIA.

Day trying to get customers connected to Ford Pass and Account manager. LOL crazy and we are the tech people in customer service since there are none in the U.S. lol

For all of those who hate it here, it's much easier to find a job when you already have one. If you're unhappy here, start looking.

Drove by the dealership across from MAP yesterday and couldn't count the number of unsold Broncos sitting on the lot. I thought we had a sure fire long term hit with the Bronco. Doesn't look like we can give them away!

Gaslighting at its best for improved quality. Still #1 in recalls. Ford has been hard at work rectifying quality issues with its lineup, and it seems to have finally paid off. The entire 2024 Ford lineup has better initial quality than years past... — read more 

Joy. They can’t make a good vehicle. Their Ford Pas and online Account Manager system su-ks and can’t keep anyone in the Ford Credit customer service dept.

so sad...

So the new direction of our leadership is to tell the customer that we know you don't want this but take it anyway? It's almost like they're completely out of touch.
