A colleague had to get the engine replaced in his Ranger, he was quoted and payed for a reconditioned engine at a Ford dealer.
Went to Vic Roads to update the engine number, Vic Roads Inspector checked the number with a camera and told him the number was already updated, colleague checked the number against the owners manual and it was same number. Colleague contacted Service Advisor and asked was he getting a reconditioned engine? The Service advisor said yes. Colleague told him I have just been to Vic Roads and the engine number is the same as the original. Service advisor said he would get back to him. Service Advisor called back told my colleague that they got a new block from Ford with a serial number sticker, no engine number and they stamped the engine number on the block. My colleague is worried about he has paid for another block and they may have just used the original block. Has anyone else heard of the dealer stamping an engine number on a replacement block and is it legal? |
