Unhappy 1998 5.4 F150

Hi folks, I just wanted to run this by you to
see if anybody else has had a similar problem or even how I should handle it from here.
I brought my truck to the dealer because it had an oil leak. They checked it and said that they needed to order timing chain gaskets and head gaskets. Once the parts came in I brought them the truck and they kept it for 3 days. I picked the truck up on Friday and Saturday it was leaking again, but in a different location. I brought it back and insisted they give me a loaner, which they did. They kept it for two day and said it was the valve cover leaking. I picked it up yesterday and guess what, it now leaks either transmission fluid or power steering fluid. I brought it back to them this morning and got the loaner back. At this point I feel very un-comfortable with their service and mechanics. I was suppose to feel comfortable when the service manager told me this morning that they have one of the few "Certified Master technicians" working there and he's been the guy who has been working on my truck! My question is, do I have any re-course I can take if when I pick it up this time and it's still not fixed? Plus I'm worried in one year when my warranty is up, what if I have troubles related to this problem? Does the lemon law pertain to my situation? If it does, does that entitle me to a new engine/vehicle or something else?
Thanks very much folks any advice would be appreciated!!!.
