Radiator over flow cap
I took my car to the agency for service and when I attempted to check my water a week later,I can't remove the cap from the filler.It feels like it is locked in place.The cap moves about a 1/4" and then it won't unscrew.The cap never did this before.Did the agency mess up? :chevy :chevy :flag :chevy :chevy :party:

Well, your first mistake was letting the CIA work on your car - they're spies, dude, not mechanics! :lol: :lol:
Sounds to me like they cross-threaded it when they reinstalled it. I'd take it back and tell them to fix it, in case their cross-threading damaged the plastic threads on your overflow bottle.
Good luck. :cheers:

If you didn't have the problem before and they worked on that area then they did something. If the plastic neck is crossthreaded it may need a new neck and cap. Take it back. I hate to go back to have something fixed that they broke. Who is supposed to be the pros anyway?
