'07 ST8
I just bought a 2007 ST v8 4x4 last Saturday. I noticed the coolant a little low, so I topped it off to the cold mark. Next day it is low again. I top it off again. Drive up to meet a friend somewhere and noticed it smelled like antifreeze. Got home and the truck has a bunch of it scattered from the fan. I am thinking radiator, especially after everything I have read.
Also, the transmission is acting funny (like so many posts here). At 96k miles, it could be coils or anything. Looks like there are updates for the computer, so maybe the tsb was not performed.
I called the dealer this morning and they tell me I have to wait 30 days to make sure I can use my extended Ford warranty. You know...the Ford Premium plan that was about $2,000 for 3 yr 36k miles.
So...I have a truck I drove for two days that I cannot drive for a month or I just need to fix myself.
Anyone else run into something like this? I have 30 days to cancel the extended warranty. I can't even use it for 30 days.
This has made my mind toast...
