I have a 4300 series International truck that that seems to be losing antifreeze into the oil. The truck is on warranty from the factory. Will the motor be damaged if I drive it 50 miles to the dealer?
Diluted can result is premature bearing wear and other problems. If it is under warranty, demand the dealer tows it, or they should offer in writing, additional assurances that future premature engine wear/failure will be the dealer's responsibility.
If this was some old wreck of a truck I might be tempted. But if it is under warranty from dealer I would agree call them and if they say to drive it in have them put it in writing on their letterhead. Even if you have to drive down in a car to get the copy!
