And this is one of the better ford dealers in town. Their service has been excellent in the past (for ford service). Most of the dealers in town I've been to before and won't set foot in again.
I didn't see any recalls (or tsb's even) on the 2000's relating to the blower or blower switch. I'm thinking even if there isn't direct links between the system they could have indirectly bumped or disturbed or broke something else in the repair that affected the blower circut. They were moving the seat in and out of the car, playing with the fusebox, stuff like that who knows.
I'm thinking while they're paying for the rental they'll have incentive to get this fixed soon. I expect to hear from them today and I'll update the thread when I do.
Unrelated but I saw my first SVT Focus when I took the car back yesterday. It was sitting in a service bay with the temp tags still on. *snicker*
