Hello, Good to join!
My 2002 P38 has been a pretty good truck - we've had to replace air suspension a couple of times, and last May had to do a major overhaul (water pump, serpantine belt, head gaskets - ugh).
Well, today, my hubby and son took off to go dove hunting and on their way home it made a horrible noise and apparently the serpantine belt or a pulley flew off, shredding the fan belt shroud and causing coolant to spew everywhere. He limped it home - smoking and the whole nine yards. I only saw the aftermath - belt off, plastic shredded - ugly.
The work we had done in May - the replacement of the belt, the water pump, etc. - we are hoping there is at least some warranty on the parts, the work, SOMETHING.
But my question is, what in the world would cause that to happen??? We've not had any major problems or symptoms really, so I'm clueless as to what happened??
Has this happened to anyone else, and what had to be replaced at what cost??
