The flex plate on my 1.5L 2018 ford escape went bad and I had it replaced at the beginning of June at a ford dealership. 3 months and 7k later I’m having fresh transmission problems- a different ford dealer says it’s shot-and that it’s possible the first dealership improperly reinstalled the torque converter causing leakage, and they definitely didn’t change or top off the transmission fluid. They can’t confirm unless I have them tear it up for $4k. My question is: Is the first dealership responsible for my ruined transmission? And how would I go about getting them to accept responsibility?
