Yet another Radiator failure

42000 miles and coolant leaking. Dealer informs me that Ford does not consider the rad as a power train component. No warranty coverage. $1300 later and I am quickly realizing that Ford Tough means Ford Frail. I honestly expect a rad to last longer than 42000 miles, and it's hard to imagine a power train without a rad. I'm very disappointed.

That's half of what I paid for a 5 yr/100k Ford Gold warranty. Two radiators and I'll be even.
