I just got my timing belt swapped out at 111K miles by a good independent mechanic who my family trusts and have been going to for years. He also replaced two motor mounts that the dealership (and he) saw as being torn. After I picked the truck back up, I noticed two things were different. The first is the AC isn't working. It won't blow cold air. It worked before I took it in, but now it only blows air the same temperature as the outside air.
The second thing is the steering has an odd "hitch" in it? Almost like a clunk when the wheel is being turned. Don't know how to explain it, but when I'm turning the wheel it makes a clicking noise, just once and it seems to be in the same place. Like I said, hard to explain.
Has anyone else had these issues and are they related to something that might have happened when everything was put back together?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
