Look Gunny, its like this.

I know yr probally thinking this is gonna be more trouble then its worth - and truth is it probally is. But the simple fact is they ****ed up - they didn't follow procedure, and they owe you a new engine. Now, if you feel guilty about that - we need to talk. You don't owe them anything - they owe you a new engine. And if it takes me going down to Edwards AFB to prove it, i'll see ya next week. But listen to the guys who know a few things - don't accept less and be taken for a shmuck.

The best bet would have been to drive it until it failed. Then, they wouldn't have had a choice. ;)

I'm actually thinking that right now.  Me and my neighbor were discussing last night how long it would have drove until it seized.  I don't think I would have made it half way home, that's about 38 miles from the dealership over california highways in 101 degree weather.

Does the car come to a complete halt when the engine siezes?  Or does it depend what gear / drive you are in?

Guns, look at it like this. Suppose you change the ejection seat in an F-18 but forgot to hook up the arming device to the ejection handle. How much trouble would you be in with the Marines if that plane took flight (even for a few minutes) and your superiors found out?

AV Ford is in the same amount of trouble with you. Brand new engine...nothing less.

If it's a manual tranny, it's possible for it to lock the rear wheels. If it's an automatic, it will more than likely just coast to a stop.

So I wait a freaking HOUR and I pay the fee and take off.  I'm hearing a weird noise from the engine and the car is acting funny.  I look down at the guage and NO OIL PRESSURE!

These Idiots at AV ford DIDNT REFILL THE OIL AFTER THEY DRAINED IT.  I KID YOU NOT, I couldnt make this up.

I only got a block away before I turned around.  They added 5 quarts to it right there in the parking lot.  I told them I wasn't paying and I'm not taking my car back untill it has been completly inspected.  

They gave me a rental and said call you on monday.

What complete morons.  I said never again after the last time they screwed up one of my cars.  This time I really mean it....never again will they get my business.
