Be careful with the rebuild. I've had several friends that went the rebuild route and the turbo failed again very soon. Most of my friends drive the 3.5 f150. This is why I don't like turbos and little bitty motors. A lot of stress over a period of time. The 5.0 would fix his problem forever.2021 Badlands with 60,350 miles and I was getting very low/no boost and the wrench and engine light icons on the dash. Dealership wants $3,500 to replace it ($2,300 in parts). WTF. Anyone had luck with getting a "Goodwill Assistance" bone out of of Ford for such a catastrophic failure 350 miles outside of warranty?
All services done timely and at the same dealership where I bought it. I'm hopeful that will help with the request. I asked the service representative at the dealership to make the request, but I'm not sure how much they may or may not fight for me. Maybe I need to call Ford as well?
Buy some of my Bronco accessories from my signature link below and help a guy out!
I think that's just a generic message. Ford dealers don't rebuild turbos
Say more about POA based synthetic. I've been wrenching forever and never heard that term.
You do realize there's other shops out there that do rebuilds And replace turbos. I would not go to Ford once the warranty expires on anything
Obviously.
That's unfortunate, but predictable. I've definitely seen Customer Loyalty forgiveness and a lot worse scenarios than yours. If you haven't already maybe talk to the service department manager, or maybe the owner if possible. Worst case scenario see if they can do the parts at their cost and you pay labor.
So have I with other brands. Way more forgiveness. 350 miles out of warranty and they can offer nothing... Those good will repairs/replacements were usually done through corporate. Truly hope OP receives some assistance and or finds a good independent that can help offset the cost to do the work.
