Heat Exchanger....Intercooler

[toolove]

2008 F150 Harley Davidson
I believe that is what it is....located in front of the radiator? Anyways, my hood latch has jiggled enough, I put many miles on my vehicle, and it has put a hole into the front of the heat exchanger? Ford tells me it is an intercooler? So I really don't know, but we are argueing with Ford/Insurance co, as too who is going to fix it. What I need is pictures of where the hood latch sits close to that "intercooler", so I can prove to Ford that it is a defective ford part, and that I didn't damage the supercharger on purpose. Please HELP!! Send pics if you can, or I can call you so we could talk about this, it may save you some headache, and me some money. Thanks and I look forward to talking with ya'll!

Here are a couple of pics from my 07 S331. (Ignore the dirty condition!)I doubt Ford will pay for the fix since Saleen installed the heat exchanger for the intercooler.

I would try to contact Saleen, if you are still in the 3 year/36000 mile warranty period. Jess Albright can answer your questions on the warranty.

But my problem is that the service department is telling me that the damage is my fault because I did not notice the hood latch eating into my intercooler! So I want to prove that the hood latch was mounted incorrectly, which cause the damage, so I need pics of where the hood latch is mounted, and shows how close it is! I anyone can help, I would appreciate it

Here are those pics of the hood latch on my S331 and intercooler. Hope this helps your warranty issue.
