IF ANY OF YOU
were in the duratec forum a lil ways back you'll know that i had to get my engine replaced because i spun a bearing

there was a small oil leak that let 2 quarts leave
needless to say that engine was done

they said it would only take maybe 1 week
i called one day to see if the engine had shipped
they said that 20 engines shipped from Ford
but they didnt have tracking and they had no idea where they were
i said so you dont know where my engine is........he says......for all i know it could be in Idaho

how reassuring


next day i call him and ask him an update

he says that the engines are on backorder for 3-4weeks
so 2 weeks later i go today and ask to see my car and for an update


well the ENGINE ARRIVED
they are just waiting on a cylinder head

here are some pics


something missing

i would demand something in return for my time
...your in the drivers seat with that problem, not them, specially since you kept on em so much

but anyway...i kno how it is when your about to get your car back from the shop...nothing like pulling it off the lot again

Are they paying for a rental? I guess first is this under warrenty? If it is and theyv had your car sitting there I say raise hell.

yeah it is under warranty and everything is paid for
if they decide not to i will raise hell
its kinda frustrating this has happened
i have just about 28000 miles on the car
i hope they extend my warranty or something for another 5 afterwards
anyway

yeah
