Default Refurbished engine/radiator issue

I'm hoping someone may have some good advise/insight for me. I have a 2007 5.4L. The engine was replaced last March and I don't have 10k miles on it yet. Two weeks ago it broke down and the dealership replaced the cam phasers and timing belt. All covered under the warranty which is good. I'm going to pick it up today but they called and told me the radiator leaked all the coolant out and the radiator has to be replaced. That concerns me since I've had no leaking or overheating prior. I'm wondering what you all think? I'm concerned there may be a head gasket issue that either they didn't look at or are trying to ignore. Or if it's just my luck that the radiator just happened to go at the same time. Not sure if anyone else has come across this before.

Thanks!
Heather

Welcome, can you go to the dealer and ask them to show you the leak?
