I am an end user and purchased a Forklift from our Local Forklift service company that has done service for us for the last 20 years.
They sold us a 2007 Hyster S120FT with 2100 hours for $25,000 as a "Rental Ready Unit" with 90 day warranty. Since the purchase they have had to replace the entire brake system, 5 Hydraulic lines and now the rear main seal is leaking oil all over the floor.
Since we have had this truck we have had an oil leak but now its getting worse. It is still under the 90 day warranty period and I am being told by the company we purchased this truck from the leak is not under the warranty that it was sold as a "Rental Ready" Forklift. Wow now we have a truck that leaks but this local company we have done business with for over 20 years is going to loose all our business from here on out because it was sold as Rental Ready. I agree their needs to be a clear definition when selling or purchasing a forklift.
