    At least you know Ford is not going to give you the run-around on this issue.

    Relax everyone... it will get fixed under warranty.

    Let's hope the fix is a good one! They've had a string of issues with engines and NOT just the 4 pot!

    Still no sense worrying about it. I'll deal with it when I get my letter from Ford.

    Appt is set for Feb 26th...

    Got the official letter last week. Finally found a dealer local I trust and who seems to know what the heck is going on.

    Now if I can just get a break in the weather to clean it off!

    Question Re: DK News

    Glad to hear you got a slot and found a dealership you trust, that's half the battle! The other half of the battle is the waiting and to quote the late Tom Petty, "the waiting is the hardest part". Did they say how long this entire process is going to take? I assume the entire coolant system gets flushed out and new oil change?

    Sounds like they will have the car for a week. I'll be getting a loaner from them... wondering what I'll get. I'm assuming I will get a base Focus or something. It really doesn't matter.
    I'm sure the coolant will get flushed and an oil change... I'll be inquiring more about the process once I drop it off. They will be first performing a pressure test.

    Pressure test passing with get the gasket kit only
    Fail =you get gasket kit plus new head and they should borescope for coolant in cylinders and scoring which would be engine replacement if found

    Yes but I just meant small details like the coolant, oil, etc.
