Leaky Radiator Problem 6.4

[Fordcrazy]

Talked to my Ford Dealer today, seems they have indentified the cause of for the radiator failures. It requires a thermostat change, then the problem is solved. Anyone else heard from their dealer on this?

i had the same issue. my radiator wasnt covered under warranty anymore since i was past the 36k mile mark. but since i needed new thermostats, they covered the radiator under causal damage and it was all replaced and didnt cost me a penny. you should get the same thing.

Haven't heard this. My radiator was replaced a couple years ago. There was a service bulletin that installed a Tee fitting that was supposed to fix the leak issue...or at least I thought so.

should i put my truck back to stock before i bring mine in?

most definitely...unless you dont want a warranty

negative. I've seen atleast a dozen rads now that none needed a thermostat by the new measurements

technically it doesnt need the thermostats replaced..but if your are past 36k miles, the thermostats have to be replaced to have it covered under warranty.

mined at 47k but i bought the extended bumper to bumper warranty
