Default Raptor Question
I got a raptor today and while loading it up i noticed coolant leaking out, the dealer told me that if you leave them idling for more than 30 seconds it will leak coolant...is this true or is it not supposed to?

the coolant was all over the frame, right below the hose that comes from the radiator into the motor...

Could be a loose clamp from assembly .. check it to see if the clamps are tight but if they are take it back.. Make them make it right.

Take it back and have them fix it immediately. Nothing should leak from your brand new raptor.
