Really ought to rethink why you guys pay a shop that is too lazy to do any work through the night. Went in tonight because of a coolant leak that happened while I was idling on my 10hr break. Can't run the truck because no coolant, so that means no heat and it's in the high teens tonight. Two guys and a gal working tonight but said they don't keep replacement parts for anything coolant related for a 2023 cascadia in stock! Plus, I can't even pull in an empty bay for the night for heat?
