I'm seriously pissed. First time it broke down in the middle of Oregon, about a month and a half ago. Now it came apart again bottom corner. I thought this issue was taken care of.... They better fix it tomorrow by Sunday even though I don't have an appointment or I'm going to flip. I need this truck on the road by Sunday night.

sorry about the rant, the question is; has anyone else had it come apart a second time?

i have 38xxx miles on it now, almost all highway.

 

There was a post somewhere on here about radiators made before 08/07 recalled by the manufactor because the seams were not properly crimped? Your 2nd radiator might be one of them.

 

It shouldn't have been, I just had it replaced and this was already a known issue.

They just told me it won't be fixed till monday/tuesday because no one has a radiator in town. Also it is out of warranty so this is out of my mother****ing pocket.

 

Unbelievable......FOrd get your shizzle together!!

 

I just told them it better be under warranty since I just had it replaced about 2 months ago. They said they're going to see what ford will do, but it doesn't look favorable since i put 29,000 miles on since then.

Anyone know where I can get an aftermarket radiator? Is there a beefed up one that is welded? I can't afford to loose more money and time.

Is this a radiator issue or coolant flow issue? Is it building up too much pressure and not flowing enough, and this is the weak spot that gives?

 

29,000 miles intwo months????? You are traveling over 400 miles a day? What do you do?

 

its not under warranty anymore?! wow, this is were extended warranty comes into play, man after two months they should honor that.

 

I love taking the long way home .

 

I have extended up to 200k miles with the 21 point coverage, but that does not cover the radiator

They said the ford rep will cover all but $200 since I just had one replaced and I also came back to my original dealership to do the work.

 

At least a little bit of good has come out of it, shouldn't be happening at all though

 

indeed. you guys should have seen the service writer and the mechanic going ape **** about how many miles are on it hahaha. I should mess with them and ask them if it's calculating the miles right cause i don't drive that much lol
