I have a 2021 First Editon. I had a recall letter several months ago and it said they would contact me when parts were available.
I have heard nothing about all 3 recalls that I am waiting on. On my 4 recalls that said the same, they have never, ever called me.
I always had to call them and chase them around to get it done. Then they need it for at least 48 hours to fix a seatbelt clip. 30 second repair.

Has anyone had their engine replaced?

It's still advanced notice. The recall isn't out yet.

well, i have one of the magic numbers for my 2.7 build date, I have been in contact with my dealer several times to find out about the TEST they are supposed to run on my bronco. as of 2 weeks ago my dealer has no information regarding the test procedures etc. I do have my letter from ford. I only have 6500 miles on my 21 obx. Most of my driving is close to home except for a couple of 90 mile trips for family gatherings. I have AAA to drag me back to CT if need be. I just hope it doesn't happen during fishing season. I would hope I get a loaner if I do break down. Not a comforting feeling and I don't go far. I feel for the off-roaders who could be stuck in the boonies.

I Have a recall 2.7. Nothing yet just the notice on the Ford pass app. Has any of you guys noticed a fuel mileage decrease? I have. 19 mpg down to 17. Haven’t changed my driving I kinda drive easy. Could the drop in MPGs indicate the valve issue?

More likely change to summer blend, or tire pressure off, or you just changed your lift or something.

Also, can't decide if your avatar is pregnant or just had too many Coors.

I have a 2021 subject to the engine recall that just turned 30,000 mi on the odo. No change in MPG has been seen though real world MPG #’s compared with the dash readings have always been 4-5% lower

I got my 21 FE used. I did research here first with that huge thread about julian number research and the valves. It paid off, I think I was just outside the window since I didn't get the recall. Huge thanks for B6G forums for that.

Anyway, when I've had recalls, my dealer (A dealer I have had relatively good experiences with) doesn't usually contact me. They get done when I happen to be in for inspection or service.

for what its worth - I do NOT have a recalled motor but did have a burned/broken valve. Ford repaired my engine ( new head assy. on the effected side). It was a 4 week process and relatively painless all things considered.

All this to say - if it does actually break, it will get fixed.
