I have brought my Mustang into the dealership (2014 V6) twice now and it’s still leaking. I will be bringing it back for a third time next Monday. They replaced the vent tube (kit) the first time, a week later — another little pool of fluid in my garage. Brought it back, they had no idea, sent it to Ford service, they added a “super concentrated gear oil” that was supposed to seal and complete the repair. It has not. Still the same size pool of gear oil in my garage. So, here we go again! What is it they’re missing? I’m not above telling the service center how to “do their job” as long as I know what I’m talking about first! Thank you!
