So dont let them fool you into thinking they are a reasonable choice for a vehicle when there are other options out there The engines should not be failing so early, it is poor design, and partly luck. Some engines last, I think it is just the luck of the build quality, and partly the owners driving habits and the maintenancep

Injectors, fuel tank, tank pump, water-separator, fuel filters, fuel line, fuel rail, EVERYTHING. In the event that the failure damages the engine, you may have to replace it also.

I have chev spark with 340000kms and i m VERY HAPPY WITH IT

[@flyrock45]

Small engines making huge pressures in the name of economy. The EPA and manufacturers work together to make planned obsolescence a reality. This needs to stop.

[@supertitantsunami9974]

Exactly. And it causes all kinds of issues like head gasket failures and oil dilution, just to name a few

[@yesnomaybe1220]

I have had a horrible time with Ford Escape. It was on a timer.....paid off.....engine goes

[@earlarnett96]

I i have a 2022Transport with a 3.5 didn't make it to 15,000 before catastrophic engine failure. 6 months later. I am still driving my 2009 E250 service van with 250,000 miles.

FORD...Fix or repair daily...

Buyer be ware. Twin turbo. = BOOM

[@crlaw75]

Toyotas.

Stellantis Will Pay Dearly For Their New Ice Platform, Their Engineers Forgot The KISS Principle Gooood Luck 😊

[@billdang3953]

@@crlaw75 I never hear about twin turbo Supras failing in such a manner.

I'm not surprised this stuff is happening ford quality has been going down hill these past few years

[@mrjim1973]

Stay away from all Ecoboost engines! Especially the 2.7! Naturally Aspirated engines are your best bet regardless of the manufacturer. Direct injection systems are also very troublesome! They have carbon issues. Multi port, naturally aspirated engines are the most reliable. Highly recommend a quality used car today. 1998-2014 are some of the best built cars & trucks.

[@Rusty-wheel]

I think you should check your facts....2.7 has less issues than 5.0 and 3.5

[@DanielGarcia-zz9eg]

Should of got a V8 😂😂😂😂😂

[@billmalec]

This is the only time we took out a Ford factory extended warranty. We have a 2015 Edge with the 2.0L Ecoboost. Of course that means we won't have a problem with it. 😉 Only like 70,000 miles now and have warranty until 125,000 I think. Of course the years it extended to could get us first.

[@josephfraley4432]

They obviously need competent engineers.

[@analienfromouterspace]

I made the right choice to not buy another Ford, went to buy Nissan Altima.

[@davebrown9725]

Keep your CVT serviced. Nissan are Mercedes expensive to repair. Hope you don't have the variable compression engine.

[@4dscdriver]

Altima's are known to have transmission failures, so you may not be much better off.

[@dicmccoy]

Looks like Ford is striving to be the new Hyundai/Kia.

[@Cybersawz]

Stop buying their junk quality vehicles. Eventually, they'll get the hint.

[@stephengreen3566]

I own three vehicles, all 20 or more years old and all have over 200,000 miles on them. They don't make things like they used to.

[@sporttourersss]

I've owned fords for decades, but after reading about all their problems and lack of responsiveness I bought a new Mazda last month.

[@heheharhar2]

Ford's product quality and reliability going downhill. I'll stay away from this manufacturer!

[@kyles234]

When the CEOs start going to jail this will stop

[@Michael-he2js]

Sounds about right. Ford customer care doesn't care (based on their actions)
