Agreed. My '16 GT would go into limp mode due to A/T heat issues. The engine oil would overheat, so I had to add a Mishi oil cooler. The car would not turn, even after BMR add-ons, etc.
My Camaro, doesn't even blink. Not at Watkins Glen, not at Palmer, not at NHMS....and it handles great...
I'll run 8-10 track days a season. I'm in the northeast, so that is mid-April to late October.
Super dedicated? Not really, but while I'm there I want to make it through the weekend without going into limp mode, or damaging the vehicle. With my previous car, it would go into limp mode usually...
Yup, I believe you are correct. If I pressed it, I most likely would have got it covered. I'd bet it would have taken quite a awhile though and lots of pain and gyrations. And, at the end, there could be the possibility that I would have to pay out of pocket due to the oil cooler and track use...
Not starting a quarrel here, but the "other" manufacturers automobile is quite ready for HPDE out of the box. So the "as-delivered" is less of an issue. Cooling is in place for all systems, including front brake ducts and scoops. Trans and differential, plus 3 coolant radiators on base models...
They can tell. The look for rubber marbles in the wheel wells, burnished brakes, etc. Ford has a tech advisory on it, which I saw posted somewhere on this forum.
Would the other manufacturer deny a claim? Sure..it depends on the situation, and most importantly, your relationship with your...
Personal, yes. Full disclosure, I did not follow the case through to fruition. However, I brought my car in for an engine noise, and the dealer said no initially, and that they would have to "open a case with Ford". The car had a Mishi oil cooler on it.
They wanted to pre-charge me cash for...
Ford leaves much more open to interpretation and allows the dealer to decide what is covered. GM is more up front about covering track use, very clear actually. Not looking for an argument here, but please don’t mislead.
Yeah, I used to harp on the visibility thing and the trunk space issues, and the mullet wearing Grand Funk listening owners of the Camaro until I drove one...then bought one. The visibility issue goes away after 10 minutes of driving.
Then I took the Camaro to the track...it’s a 2SS and not...
