There are zero burnt spots. The radiator is apparently dry and the sensor has failed to indicate that. Since he fixed the car the car has been burning oil like crazy.

Also if the radiator cap failed then wouldn't there have been a smell? also if the radiator cap failed, wouldn't that be failure of a part he installed then should be covered under warranty?

I told him that I was with her in the car 2-3 days prior to the issue and there was no smell. He is also saying that the Cap was not part of radiator. He only changed the radiator and not the cap which is stupid.

ALSO, if the radiator was faulty then wouldn't the overflow tank bleed pressure and pour coolant everywhere every time you turned off the car...

Thank you. Another point that I brought up. We're picking up the car from him today to take it to the Lexus dealer for a diagnostics to get a better idea of what exactly happened.
