All FORD would tell me is the mechanic was installing the wrong. The car would run hot in slower traffic and after a few days, it would start dripping. The third one started running out on the service floor when they pulled the car around for me to pick it up. They seemed to be stumped too.
I never got a clear answer out of the dealership... but this last one seems to be fine and I have not had a leak for close to six months now. The car still runs hot in slower traffic and with warmer weather coming I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Should I change out my therm? How hard is it to do? I've head where there is one which will open and allow it to cool at lower temps. Is this true?
