They told me that it was either a timing chain or phaser issue. I'm not a mechanic, but it sounded just like the YouTube video of the rattle when the CAM phaser is going out. Crazy thing is when I asked if Ford would provide me with a report once the engineers look at the bad Engine I was told...
Well Ford replaced my engine quickly in under two weeks. Drove it three days and found myself creeping down the freeway with a blinking engine light and having it stall at every traffic light. Got it to the ford dealership. No service on the weekend so without a rental or loaner again...
My dealership replaced my engine in two weeks for my cam phaser issue. Unfortunately 3 days after getting my raptor back I barely was able to creep back into the dealership today. I was on the freeway and my raptor started running horrible, engine light blinking and stalling when stopped...
Well Ford had my new engine delivered and installed in less than two week. Drove it for two days and on the freeway the Bronco started vibrating almost like I was driving on uneven asphalt. Engine light came on so pulled off the freeway where the bronco died. Only way to keep it going was...
Still trying to find a rack for my Braptor. When I emailed railtrax they told me it wouldn't accommodate my Thule roof box for skiing. It would also be nice to be able to use only the half rack in the summer. Any ideas?
Funny I sent a message directly asking Trailrax and this was the reply.
Hello Ty,
Thank you for reaching out!
The Thule Rocket Boxes are not compatible with our rack.
Hey,
Unfortunately things happen. I brought my raptor in after what I thought was a Cam Phaser or timing chain issue. Does dealership is telling me that it need to have the engine replaced which obviously I wasn't too happy about. What's unbelievable is im getting the run around on a loaner...
I was told today that my 2023 Braptor needs it engine replaced after only 3 month and 5,000 miles. Same rattle cam phaser timing chain. Pretty frustrated.
Honestly better than I expected. You can expect to put a winch on without blocking the camera. All I really cared about was my parking sensors and my cruise control. I’m assuming that there will be a relocation of the camera at some point.
I purchased this for my BRaptor but the shop is concerned about moving the parking sensors and the real issue potentially would affect the Adaptive Cruise Control. Any concerns here? Thanks
Looks like my Raptor was shipped 4/13 and is waiting @ junction point, Gibson, IN. Not sure how long it will take to transfer and be delivered to Colorado dealer. I was on chat today and they didn't seem to have a rail car number yet.
