2004 Ford Explorer 6 cyl
----------------------------------------------------------------
I had the drivebelt replaced on my 2004 ford explorer about 2 weeks ago due to a squealing noise. 2 weeks later it started to squeal again. I took it back in and the crankshaft cap had split in 2 and had destroyed the crankshaft sensor and put a knick in the air conditioning hose. The dealership says that the 2 are unrelated. Does anyone know if this could have happened to the crankshaft cap because they tightened the new drivebelt too much or something else? I am now out over 1K for both repairs and I want to fight the dealership on it.
