I think the dealership was just supposed to install the recorder. Hopefully it wouldn't be much more complicated than plugging a device into the OBDII port.

From that point, I believe I'd drive to reproduce the problem and return the recorder when finished.

I guess my issue is not knowing whether they even tried to reproduce the problem on their end. If the did, and couldn't...well fair enough. In my mind though, I don't know how that'd happen. All they need to do is try to take off gently with some fine gravel under the tires and the car will nearly stall. I think speaking to one of their engineers prior to installing the recorder would help me tremendously.

To be fair to Ford, their car launches fine. So would you rather have a car that just works or one that doesn't work with helpful engineers?... lol (jk)
