Unlucky Owners?

Found the picture on a cars page on Instagram.

Any idea where this is? I don’t think owners would have been informed about this.

No idea where that is but Ford wouldn’t deliver or sell those cars to a dealer, much less a customer. They may have informed the dealer that the vehicles were damaged or just replaced them with new builds.

I don’t think

Correct.

Without a shred of evidence you just jump to saying @Ford Motor Company *knowingly* sold flood damaged cars?

This is very old and all those cars were donated

This isn't a one-time deal.

It's part of a bigger program where Ford gets vehicles damaged by hurricanes, tornadoes, hailstorms and even theft recoveries. The company totals the vehicles as a loss and retitles them to the schools for teaching. Salvaged vehicles have included Ford F-150 pickups, Transit vans, Super Duty trucks, Escapes as well as Lincoln Aviators and Explorers.

"We work with the vehicle logistics team. Many of these are damaged in transit," McLean said. "Our legal team creates the paperwork to make sure the vehicles can never be put back on the road. They're titled to the schools as scrap."
