I'll take your word for it then. I asked about a rental and they said they'll only cover a rental if it's a Ford vehicle... Well there are plenty of Mustangs on Turo! ?
I'm covered under powertrain warranty! They're saying the tensioner bolt broke (?), and that none of my modifications required removal of the tensioner, so I'm good! Parts a week out, another week for repair. They're "trying to find" a loaner. Funny cos I saw a brand new tremor super duty out...
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, would you kindly turn your attention to exhibit A. where my third-party metallurgical expert, Mr M. Cart, illustrates evident casting faults in the timing cover. These faults ultimately and exclusively led to the serpentine belt tensioner's catastrophic failure...

Correctamundo! Buy premium, then send them your VIN and the serial number off your damper, NOT THE LOT NUMBER, and they send you back the code to enable damper enable/disable toggle switch functionality. If it sounds like a hassle that's because it is.
