I switched from GM in 1985 to Ford. After 35+ years of Broncos, F150's, super duty's, escapes, edges and rangers, satisfactory no complaint sales and services, The service manager at my Chishire CT Ford dealership promised me a "real Ford tech" ( named Johnny) when I brought my 100k mi. escape 3.0 v6 for a motor reseal because of timing cover leaks. When I got the car home and took a look-see at what I paid $2300 for, I found the valve cover bolts were loose (hand Tight), the oil dipstick was sitting on the cowl, and the front engine mounting bolts lock washers werent even compressed. (Johnny and his torque wrench!) After they re-did the job TWICE they got the leaking oil and coolant down to a spott-drip of oil. Ford quality of both product and service has taken a bad turn. Time to switch from cars I always loved- Why? because great engineering and style has gone to hell. Seems like they are good at doing two things nowadays: oil changes and warranty motor change-outs

Yeah, after 35+ years of history who wouldn't abandon ship with a single problem? I don't even own a Ford but I do 99% -100% of my own repairs, and if I didn't repair my own cars, I'd take it to a well respected independent like Brian here. And whatever you move to, realize that cars are far more needlessly complicated than they were 10 years ago and even late model Toyotas are blowing engines and having transmission failures. Whatever you get, make sure you buy a long warranty with it. Oh, and Cheshire Ford's labor rates are ridiculous. I had them price a 3.5 Edge water pump for my mother in law, it was $1500 more than she had it done for in Wolcott by a local independent (Fran's).

Synthetic oil every 5000 or once a year for low mileage retired folk like me. Hopefully we stay lucky! 🤘

Well what we see on the internet is a small % of failures in the grand scheme of things, but if your the one that gets that failure it really sucks. My last work truck was a Ram 2500 4x4 6.4l Hemi. I was always worried about cam/lifter failure happening which never came. It made it to 200k miles before biting the dust due to a new employee over heating it. I had just moved into my new 2024 Ram 2500 and heard it failed. In our work fleet only 2 had that problem and were from workers not well known for staying on top of maintenance. All you can do is stay on top of the maintenance and try not to abuse them too much. That being said I still research and like to go with brands with the least amount of failures. I have never been a one brand loyalist as I think that is silly. I just go with what I like and can afford at the time of purchase. I have to say I know Rams are not well known for being bullet proof, but they damn sure ride and handle very well and always even with the work trucks have a banging sound system. I believe our company will be switching to Ford or GM next fleet purchase because we are not sure how well the Hurricane inline six will hold up in the oil field.

Very expensive failure I feel for the guy that owns this truck! I had a bad experience with the local Toyota dealership for my wife's 2020 Camry SE that pretty much told me you can't trust dealerships. They over filled her engine by 3 qrts. On her way home car started stalling and blowing out smoke so the tech did not even check the oil level after filling it. She knows to check the oil after oil changes, but she did not that time. She learned why she should always check it after that. That dealer now requires them to show the customer the dipstick after every oil change. They did go through the car to make sure no damage was detected. You hear that type of thing happening at Wal-Marts, but a Toyota Dealer? Just goes to show the carelessness of people now days.

@jimmieb1773 3 дня назад

Today's mechanics don't have the skills of the old school mechanics. If the computer doesn't tell them what's wrong they can't fix it and they don't care about details (correct oil level) . Just in and out and is it time to go home.

@KStewart-th4sk 2 дня назад

@@jimmieb1773 Too many people have the idea that the mechanics just hook up the scan tool, read the DTC's that the computer has set, and then they know what to change. Big mistake to think that, for those taking their vehicles to get fixed, also the mechanics who seem to lack the training and only go by the codes that were set. Then they start throwing parts at it. Eric O. at South Main Auto and Ivan at Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics have shown countless times how so-called "factory trained techs" at dealers have FAILED. Often after charging hundreds or thousands of dollars and not fixing the problem. I am sure some techs at dealerships are good, BUT there also seems to be a lot of bad ones too.

30 years ago I took our 91 Camry to the dealer for routine 60k mile trans service before a 300+ mile trip. During the drive the car had a couple odd shifting episodes and the day after we returned I found a pool of tranny fluid under the car. I called the dealership and scheduled an appointment because the fluid had obviously been overfilled. I waited at the dealer for the car to be checked out and when the svc mgr called me up to the counter he said I needed a valve cover gasket and distributor gasket. I asked what about the trans oil leak and he said “hard to tell where that is coming from with all oil leaking from the engine”. No thanks, and I never went back to that dealer or bought another Toyota. Those gaskets were not leaking. The car had over 200k when it was traded and the gaskets were never replaced or the transmission serviced again.

@thk7513 3 дня назад

Am I mistaken, the screen on the phaser solenoids have metal residue on them, therefore the bearing material IS getting past the oil filter. Those oil passages are fed oil downstream of the filter.

@FordTechMakuloco 3 дня назад

the oil goes to the crank and rod journals first then onto the heads and vct solenoids last so between the filter and the solenoid is where the metal is getting introduced.

@1798iscomingback День назад

Never let your turbo engine overheat, change the engine oil at 5K miles and always use top tier full synthetic... Thats how you make your turbo engine last. The bearing spun probably because of overheating....

I had a 18 F-150 4x4 5.0 with the oli consumption problem,at 50k the dealership replaced the engine after a lot of back and forth of them trying to tell me that 3 quarts of oil in 5k miles was considered normal. They had the truck for 10 weeks to do the repairs. They removed the cab to do the engine swap. 3 days after getting it back from the dealership, my wife was driving down the interstate at 70 mph and the steering wheel locked up, the truck left the roadway and hit a big oak tree before she could get it stopped. It totaled the truck, Ford was notified and supposedly sent out an engineer to the salvage yard, but of course found nothing their technician had done wrong. Coincidence or did something not get tightened on the steering shaft?

For the metal to get past filter. I will guess the filter bypass opened at some point. I knew it was the main bearings from the sound right off. Rebuilt many engines in my time. Thanks for showing.

It's funny how back in the 80s and 90s car manufacturers could make engines that could comfortably go 4 or 5 hundred thousand miles,,With little or no problem,,,The old GM 3600 and 3800 could do half a million miles on 10k oil changes,,,No probs,,,Now in 2024 That technology seems to be lost,,,Isn't technology supposed to advance with time,,,,Its backward we have gone,,,Think about it,,,,,,,,,,,,An old flathead engine from the 1930s is superior in almost every way ,,To 99 percent of all gas engines today,,,Except maybe for fuel economy,,,,,,,,We really are living in a upside down world,,

@ctbale1 2 дня назад

You never said what your opinion was why there was bearing damage. (Oil starvation is the correct answer or QC when it was built. But that would blow up way before 89k. Dealer miss diagnosed the noise and boned him for a timing job??

@JohnDiMartino 3 дня назад

You’ll never know exactly what caused the failure however based on how the front cover looked I’m goin to go out on a limb and guess the tech who replaced the phasers wasn’t careful or clean enough when he did the job and now years later the dealer is off the hook and the owners out 10-12 k for you to fix it right . What a shame ,it’s clear the owner was good with his maintenance.

@cmennenger 3 дня назад

How far does the oil pump pickup screen sit above the oil pan? Could the broken casting have blocked the pickup screen causing oil starvation? I'm sure the pistons are short skirt type and lack of oil pressure would score pistons and damage rings. I feel the owners pain on that one.

@acdii День назад

Did you find that broken piece in the pan, or did that last guy who broke it removed it? I am due for timing chain and water pump in my 2014 Flex EB. 185K miles, runs like new, but occasionally can hear chain slap on first start. What was the consensus on what caused the bearings to fail in the first place? Dry start after repairs? It had to be something the last Mech did, that engine is way too clean to fail that soon, and in that manner.

Yes, great video, but this is off subject, Have a 2016 police interceptor utility has the 3.7 engine and still has the Ford Orange. coolant that Ford advised the change to the Yellow coolant becouse of the water aluminum water pump issues.

Seems like all new cars are built cheap. I have a 2024 Tacoma and the transmission needed replacing, it was a recall. The AC also went out and the clock stopped working. My wife's 2022 Honda CRV has had so many little dumb things like the airbag light, glovebox wouldn't open, power tailgate broke...ect. My daughter in law's 2021 Hyundai Palisade turned 75k miles and every month she has a new small dumb issue pop up from leaky sunroof to last week's fuel door would not open. My neighbor has the new Honda electric suv and has been in a loaner car more than he has driven the Honda. I used to bad mouth American cars but my f150 work truck with the ecoboost just hit 120k miles and never had any issues and I use it as a mobile office so it has lots of idle hours on it.

I have a 2008 expedition with 5.4 L 3 valve. It has an issue that would make for interesting content on your channel. The primary symptom is misfiring… But it only happens in reverse with a load (towing my boat). There are no misfires except for that scenario. When it does, the check engine light comes on and it throws a camshaft position sensor code, both of which have been replaced with genuine Motorcraft parts. I’d love your input!

Check for wiring harness wear at the rear of the right head. It maybe grounding a bared wire when the engine torques "the opposite direction" in reverse.

Ford and what’s left of the other so-called American manufacturers need to go back to mechanical systems!

Another issue is using way too much plastic, and instead of using gaskets using silicone to seal components! This will never happen because nobody gives a shit anymore in this country!
