Hi! I don’t see the option to send direct message to you.

Well even they are doing some questionable maintenance being a better one, I guess DIY is the way to go then

Thanks that makes a lot of sense! It’s just an odd coincidence that one of the first maintenance knowledge I learn proves the dealer is not doing a good job lol

I went to envision ford Lincoln of Duarte near LA. Does getting service down outside dealer disqualify you from getting warranty??

Oh btw since I guess they probably only did a drain/fill and claim it as a flush, should I avoid this dealer in the future? Is it normal for dealer to call drain/fill flush?

Oh right, I thought it’s 5yr/60k one but that is for powertrain only, thanks!

yep yours does look much saturated in color. Do you know if changing coolant is under the warranty?

Hi all, My bronco is reaching 50K. When I check the coolant it is sitting at a low level, but before I add more I wonder if this is a normal color of it? Just in case it needs a flush/change, is it under warranty? Thank you! Edit: Could it be a symptom of something is wrong with the engine?

Hey! Sorry digging up this old post, how do you like the result? I’m trying to do the same, thinking about wrap or paint. only thing is my Bronco is in cyber orange so there’s not an accurate wrapping color match it. Ask a few body shop and they quote me around 400-450. Do you think it’s a good...
