Default New truck

just made this profile and updated pics of my new truck. i just traded in for it, its a 2003 f-150 xlt fx4. just got it and its already having an issue. not too happy. took it to the dealership cuz it was literally spraying coolant up by the fill. they said it was a some crossover pipe leading from the coolant fill to the intake. is this something i should be too concerned that may have further damage there not telling me about?

How long is just traded it in? I'd make them fix it, go in there everyday until they do, that's what I did with my rear window. "If I knew it was going to leak I wouldn't have bought it," I told them.

Stay on them and good luck.

Got a picture of it? Could be a blockage in the engine cooling system or in the heater core. People put stop leak in to fix a small leak and it plugs the lines passages in the radiators sometimes.
