WARRANTY QUESTION

[MikeJStang02GT]

Sup All,

Well its getting hot around the pennsylvania area now. So today instead of riding with the windows down(listening to the sweet exhaust note) I throw the A/C on.......20 minutes later the thing is still blowing heat. I haven't had my 02 GT for 2 years yet and only used the A/C through one summer. My question is should Ford cover the cost of fixing this? I mean 1 summer and it already needs to be recharged?? If I leave it on I can hear the compressor clicking every 20 seconds. I bought the car brand new and only have 22k miles on it..extended warranty up to 60k miles.

Thanks in Advance,
Mike

It should be covered under your warranty.

If the compressor is cycling that often, you're probably low on refrigerant. They should definately cover it. They should also find the leak.

OT: Anyone know if replacing the throw out bearing is covered under the 36,000 waranty? Or will it cost some money out of pocket.

I can do it myself, I've done a whole clutch /flywheel before just won't have that kind of time for a while.

Throw out bearing is covered...While your there, maybe replace your clutch?

My current clutch is fine enough, I'll probably hold off that until 60k again which unfortunately is after the warrany expires (and get another SPEC / alum flywheel)but .... They'll replace clutches under warranty?
