I think this was asked previously and the response was that engine replacement is not included in a CarFax report. It is warranty service.

WHAT? Well that is just not right. What is the dealership saying about the coolant issue? Post Edit, sorry I didn't read the responses before this post, but this is just not right. I would be hopping mad if I owned any new vehicle with a coolant loss. You say no visible leaks, so it must be...

So you don’t think the manager who oversaw the production if the 2.7 EcoBoost Broncos would be responsible for the condition of the engines his plant was installing in our Broncos? I know the difference between LEP and MAP. And I know where the 2.7 EcoBoost engine is built. I also know that...

Read the post I cited please.

Did FoMoCo just figure out that they had a problem of bad management and inaction on behalf of 2.7 Ecoboost Bronco owners at MAP? https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/michigan-assembly-bronco-plant-manager-out-as-of-thursday-july-14.49012/

So this couldn't be one of the alleged valve failures because it was just a timing component failure. Nothing to see here folks, just move on.

Thanks for the link. It was written in the “Saccharin” tone for certain. The first tell that the writer was not going to admit FoMoCo has a problem was the phrase, ““an alleged defect of the ‘valves’. Then the deflection about other engines having issues that never resulted in a recall. I...

Yeah, I got a chuckle out of that comment. But then, this IS a long thread. One day I think @Lucchese is going to publish a book. 😜 ah, another RUD, happens every time someone says, “you see, it was nothing, there haven’t been any more blown engines”. Ha!

Ther have been three blown engines that we know about with more than 5,000 miles on them. One had 6,986 mile when it blew. I’d rather have an AB engine, but I am not worried. It is possible there could be late mileage failures, and that FoMoCo recalls all AA engines. Only time will tell at...

…..for example, @G-Red had a 2.3L bad turbo replaced , and he got repairs & compensation package better than most 2.7L blown engines ! he did this by filing a Case w BBB , who arbitrated with Ford Motor Co on his behalf.

you should be fine.

I don’t think everyone is this lucky. Is it the dealership that makes the difference? Perhaps some dealerships are not in good standing with FoMoCo?

The question should be, in Just in Time manufacturing, how long will it take for a bad batch to work out of the system? And did they receive enough bad valves that there was a point in the bell shaped curve that all valves in an engine were bad?

Does Ford know? Do they have serial numbers? I don’t think so. The mix of good and bad valves will follow a bell shaped distribution curve no doubt from the first bad valve to the last.

That Bronco is worth whatever someone is willing to pay. It is that simple.

If Ford included something like this it would be pretty easy to open the rear hatch with a coat hanger slipped between the glass and hatch. I wonder if doing this when the doors are locked will trip an alarm.

When you had enough talk about how old refrigerators made ice cubes, consider another perspective. I don't have any problems with someone voicing their opinions, Johnny's car care has some points for those of us outside the danger zone with enough mileage to feel better about our 2.7 Nano's...

Two on your date have failed. Look at the first page of this thread to see the details. Also, three on your date are reporting their mileage on @VictoryLights 2.7 milage tracker thread: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/how-many-miles-on-your-2-7.34994/

Ponder this. BEV’s use regenerative breaking. If the car in front of the MachE was slowing, regen would kick in to recover energy rather than actually breaking. It could be by design that the Mach-E activates the brakelight every time it is regenerating and that episode may only last an...
