Paxton locked up at 3000 miles.. Wtf

[Not7fifteen]

Driving my 2011 coyote from Chicago to Springfield today and car stalls. Was alone so I couldn't have someone try to crank while I watched. $300 tow later and I get another set of eyes. Blower seized with roughy 3000mi on it. its 3 years old, anyone know if I'll have any luck with this? It's the self contained oil version, had oil in it. Tensioning issue maybe?

What car do you own? 5.0 Coyote? Cobra? Foxbody?

Man not often you hear of this. My guess is send it in and see if they'll help you out. Sure it's out of warranty but if they open it up and find a glaring issue maybe they'll take care of you. I'm sure they'll ask you how fast you were spinning it and what belt setup as well.

This happened to me with a procharger with only 15 miles on it. Called up procharger and i pretty much got new unit but the case itself. Mine was under warranty still.

Did they tell you what caused it?
