[QUOTE="Rich E, post: 1750872, member: 32746"] Recap: Cam phaser repair - completed. After I was home there was loud tapping ... Dealer blamed a bad starter - replaced starter. Picked up truck from dealer and then a loud screeching sound from the engine upon start up on a partially warm engine. Dealer diagnosed as a bad A/C compressor (clutch). 3rd party warranty would not replace the entire A/C unit... only wanted to replace clutch... so dealer got Ford Corporate to help with financial assistance and for a $1,350 repair I had to pay about $280.00 I was not cool with this but decided to pay the money and get my truck back asap. Picked up my truck on Friday after the A/C compressor was replaced at the end of the work day. Everything seemed okay at the dealer. Driving home my truck started overheating while driving but cooled off when idling with the electric fans on full. After babying it for a while I get the Engine Coolant Over Temperature warning. I have to stop and let everything cool off. I was able to get it home after several Loooong stops. I just parked it for the night to wait for daylight to see what's up. Saturday morning I open the hood to find the hose from the coolant filling reservoir that is on the left (passenger) side down to the radiator is off. See pictures. The clamp is very forward (a long distance from the end clamping position) which to my eye looks like this was never put back on after reassembly. I am thinking about reaching out to Ford Corporate to share my story about this dealer experience. Any thoughts on that? [/QUOTE]
