My issue was repaired under warranty by replacing the door wiring harness. Best of luck.

Dealer dropped the fuel tank by 55 miles and added about twenty to the odometer. I understand some fuel gets lost when disconnecting lines and charging the system pre startup, but not that much. in all fairness, the initial piston ring seating and general break-in was already done by the...

First, it is perfectly usable, at time of this picture. If it deforms, bulges or shows threads, it needs to be replaced. The picture shows a larger cut at first, then gradually going shallow, and some minor cuts after the initial gouge. This means it was damaged while rotating and in my opinion...

Got the car back today. After a 21 day adventure, the replaced engine sounds great. No ticks, vibrations or other anomalies. They even transferred my passenger side ford performance oil catch can. After a 85 mile drive home still getting those normal new car heat smells in the garage. Very...

Mine came with the car. I generally drop the top when I am already out and about. Might actually keep them in the car if there was a storage slot for them. As it is, they stay clean and scratch free sitting in the garage rather than rolling around in the trunk.

I just saw my replacement long block, and noted that the part number has changed. The 2022 Feb build is JR3E 6006 CA. I can not find any data on this engine on the FoMoCo web (too new?) Wondering if this is a rebuilt or new engine, does it meet the 2022 requirements of 5w-30 oil or the original...

New motor has arrived! Build date is Feb 2022. If everything goes well, should get the car back on Tuesday.

Mine does the same in any of the sport modes from day 1. When driving in cruise or wet modes very smooth changes. Can you confirm if the ¨jerkiness¨ is eliminated when driving in non-sport modes?

Euro cars must have red tail/brake lights + yellow turn signals. I wonder what color are the turn signals in the American Ice White…

The new engine should arrive on Friday, keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

I posted this oil consumption spreadsheet on my post concerning burning blue smoke, which has now converted to a long block replacement. What is curious and maybe worth asking is, Does the typewriter tick only happen when dealerships change the oil? At home I Pre-fill the oil filter before...

The Heavy Duty team at the Ford dealership has seen the car, talked with FoMoCo and decided on replacing the Long Block. I am told that the new engine should arrive in ten days, and will have the car in 12-14 days. As I read all kinds of horrible stories, I decided to cover all my bases and...

I am glad they got it fixed! Enjoy the car :like:

Thank you Cobra Jet. Since this car is under warranty, I have limited my wrenching to a few aftermarket mods, passenger oil separator, jack rails, hood struts, interior lights, tow bar (Laughed at by friends - stock car with 11 second quarter mile, pulling a bike rack :) ) I honestly have not...

last time I checked, the outside door handle is replaced by accessing from the inside of the door…

I have had shoddy work completed by other dealers. In my opinion, factory install is best left alone when possible. I am happy to have a rental, but oh My lord, the Ford Eco "Sport" is anything but SPORTY :(

Made up a little spreadsheet for the dealer...

UPDATE: Took the car to the dealer, for the first 1000 mile oil consumption check. I was informed that the car could not be given back to me, due to excessive oil loss. They hinted that I might need an engine. Further information will be given after "Heavy Duty" team gets a look at the car and...

I have noted that o after both of my Ford dealership oil changes I got the loud typewriter tick. The first time, I changed the oil after 2000 miles just to see if the K&N filter (prefilled with oil) and quality synthetic would eliminate it. The result was greatly improved but not eliminated. I...

I did baby it, just don’t know what happened the first 44 miles and 4 months that it sat on the dealer lot.
