The dealer is saying my extended warranty does not cover the A/C condenser as it was hit by a rock. I don't see how inasmuch as it is under the hood next to the engine. I need a schematic of where it is located and do you think a rock could cause a leak damaging the condenser.
The condenser is located at the front of the car just behind the grill allong with the radiator - and looks like a radiator..

It is very very common for a rock bouncing off the road to damage them.. I would have them show you the damage to satify your warrenty concerns..
It is allso common for people to Installing added protection - like chicken wire or something of that nature and it will prevent this from happening again.. It happens to some people more than once - unfortunately..
PLease dont forget to rate well ;o)
Testimonial: "The info provided was exact and timely received. The dealership is working with me as I submit this on a claim through my insurance. Thanks."
Sure can. Looking though the grill the raditor you see is the AC condenser. Because this item is a crash item. Autobody aftermarket crash parts companies have them for a whole lot less that the auto part stores. If you do a little looking they cost a little over $100 Afermarket copy.. Body shops fix this part of the car so often that their the cheapest place to go to gfet it fixed and if you have collision insurance they'll be glad to file the claim
WELL THE A/C CONDENSOR IS IN FRONT OF RADATOR AND YES ROCK CAN CAUSE LEAK.
