i took my car into the dealer for a radiator flush, that same week a light came up on my dash, I took back to the dealer and they said they didn't blurp it? So I am asking can this cause the radiator to crack? because now two weeks after the flush it is cracked, and they want to charge over $1,000, to fix it???

The new radiators have plastic tanks and they crack all the time when they get some age to them i wouldnt see them not burping it to crack the tank.Sounds like the coolant got low shortly after you picked it from the flush and and they took care of it.
