AC compressor can be overhauled,please take a second opinion.Overhauling would be way cheaper than buying new one.

Its always better to take your car to authorised Ford service station instead to a local garage.Please go to diffrent service stations and get an estimate from them.

Omkar - read the first post - the dealership is asking 50k, and the problem starts from there...  An alternative is surely needed.

Hello Ford-owner Mumbaikars, any answers??

Well have spoken to two dealerships; they are quoting the same. I am surprised how an AC compressor can cost so much....

These dealership guys are minting money.
