What's up everyone?
I have an '04 QC with the 5.7 Hemi. About a month ago the head over the #7 cylinder drooped and a valve spring broke, sending the valve into the cylinder. The engine was toast. I ended up ordering a remanufactured engine from Powertrain Products. I finally got the truck back about a week ago. Upon inspecting the work, I noticed they had broken the wire harness connectors for the starter and the ETC, both without repairing the damage. They also failed to reattach the bracket holding up the CAI tube. Shoddy work to say the least.
I also noticed a power steering fluid leak. I opened up the the hood and their was PS fluid everywhere! I couldn't tell if it was leaking out of the cap or from the high pressure line. I took it back for them to figure it out and to repair the other issues/bad work.
My question is: Is it a coincidence that the power steering took a s**t right after having a shop do sub par work on the engine swap? Is it possible the PS issues were caused by the engine breaking?
Sorry for the long post. I recently lost my job and can't afford to pay for something the shop caused. Thanks!!
