Now i have another issue that the dealership can't find! Vehicle runs great but has stream coming from the rear of the engine area. They said its normal but I'm also losing coolant ?

Steam coming from the back of the engine is not normal. Nor is losing coolant.
Sorry but your dealership sucks. I would insist on talking to the owner.

Definitely not normal. Especially after an engine replacement.

This could be completely normal depending on the tech who installed the new engine. [wrenchin]

Dealer. But Ford isn’t that much better on how they treat the dealers.

Before i take it back again, will go over the 7 coolant hoses installed if i can get to them all. Other than the small leak, its better than when i brought this vehicle in 2023
