While driving the cel came on. We took the car to the dealership they replaced the crankcase pressure sensor which was covered under the powertrain warranty. They then informed us that the active grill shutter was broken and needed to be replaced. This is an internal plastic shutter in front of the radiator. The service advisor said that Ford was aware of these shutters easily being damaged and has corrected the issue going forward but this is not covered under warranty. I contacted Ford corporate customer relations and was informed that since no recall had been issued it was up to the dealership to determine if the item was warrantied. They brushed me off and wished me luck. Dealership quoted $1090 for replacement that is my responsibility.
