Ok... so my keys just got some feet and walked away. I called the dealership to see how much it would cost for me to get another key made. They gave me a figure of about 240.00, because they can't make just one key. So what I had to do was tow the car down to the dealership so they can program my key. About a hour later they call me and say that they can't get the computer to talk to them and was wondering if they can get my permision to find the problem and would cost about 200.00 dollars more just to do that. So now im looking at about 500.00. I told them that I up the superchip in, and they said that that might be the problem. I told them that I dont have my stock chip. A few hours later they called and said that they would have to put a whole new brain in the car and would cost total about 1000.00.
So what should I do. Is this all Bull. Would someones elses stock chip help. Please Give Me Some Idea. THANKS

This is way too complicated an issue for me. Terry Haines and some of the other higher ups here at CEG might be able to help you out with this issue. The Ford dealership is probably trying to screw you a bit as well, but they should be able to offer other alternatives. Get a second opinion ASAP.
