Update:
Brought the car in this morning to Erinwood, the SA didn't seem surprised that the "Check Fuel Cap" light was on or the lack of pressure when I tried taking the cap off and on several times and driving around between attempts, so they're looking at it now.
But here's the kick to the head:
Even if it is only the fuel cap, the dealership has none in stock! I'm like: WTH? Not even one cap? How are they gonna test it? Swipe a gas cap from an '05 on the lot? :blink:
I have to wonder, this is the second time that the dealer hasn't had the parts in stock to do the repairs. Is it common practice at dealerships now not to stock anything other than consumables? I realize that it would get pretty hairy storage wise to store every possible part, but I mean all we're talking about is a gas cap here, now they'll spend $10 in gas to pick one up, either from another local Ford dealer or the distro warehouse in Brampton :rolleyes:
