My 2021 GT AC stoped working. Arranged dealer pickup. Problem diagnosed as a AC hose leak. Dealer ordered part. Now part on backorder for over a month. Concierge can't provide ETA on part availability. It has been since early July. Very frustrating situation considering cost of car and that it's Fords HALO automobile. Any suggestions or similar problems?

Ha, I have been waiting for an oil filter. It is not Dave Sinclair's fault.

Some shops can replace the hose and swage a new one onto the existing pipes/fittings. Check out those that install air conditioning or make hydraulic hoses. You only need the right size hose that is rated for AC use.

Where is the hose leaking? Likely at the swaged fitting. If so, re-swaging the ferrule may fix it.

I sure hope someone at Ford is listening, especially to us the Ford fanatic faithful.
And keep whatever parts are needed on the shelf and not more then a days shipping away!

Make sure you specify USA made hose if you decide to have it fabricated.

Just my two cents.
