Dad had been trying to get a lock repaired on his company car for about a month now, but the Dodge dealership wanted him to leave it for three days just to get a look at it because they were so busy so Dad shopped around and found a dealership on Michigan Ave that said they would do it the same day if at all possible so Dad brought his car into the dealership and figured he would drive Moms Fusion to work that day.
Across the street was the Ford dealership which had a tent sale going on and Dad met up with Mom and James there. Mom, Dad, and James played some of the games and got free hot dogs at the event. Mom decided to turn in her Fusion for a recall which meant Dad did not have a car to drive to work in. The Ford dealership worked with us and Mary got a new Fiesta at a great rate and the Ford dealership loaned Dad a car for work and lucky they did as the Dodge dealer did not finish his car till late afternoon the next day.
Probably the first time a loaner car was issued from Ford for a Dodge vehicle being worked on.
