Utter bull****. If the computer can't tell them what is wrong and its 
indisputeable a problem exist and there is a warranty, the MFG (Ford in
this 
case) has an obligation to authorize the dealer to make best guess repairs

until the problem is resloved. It damn sure isn't the owners fault the 
computer fails to give a fault. In fact maybe the first thing to do is
replace 
the computer.
