Was driving my 2022 Wildtrak with about 7K miles on it when I noticed the cabin heater was not blowing hot air. It was about 19 degrees outside so I just though the engine was still heating up. It never seemed to blow warm air and the engine seemed to be much louder than normal. Then about a mile from home I got an "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" alarm. Got home and turn the engine off to let it cool off. I then noticed a wet spot under the car - clearly a coolant leak. I got my wife to pick up some coolant on the way home, filled it up, made a service appointment, then drove it to the Ford dealership for service (Big Star Ford in Manvel, Tx). This was last Friday, 12/23. I have gotten zero feedback from the service department except that the tech has not had time to assess the car. So it's been a week without a car. I've never had a Ford before. Is this what I should expect going forward. Also, do you think that there is permanent damage to the engine due to low coolant? Either way, it's pretty frustrating.
