Mar 20219100 mi | Recurrent oil leak from camshaft cover. New sealant. Took 3 visits to main dealer before they found the cause of the oil leak - initially misdiagnosed it as crankshaft oil seal leak - removed gearbox to replace oil seal and damaged a mounting which had to be replaced. |

Oct 202114000 mi | Grinding noise from rear brakes. Pulsing from brakes, likely warped rotors. Rear rotors mostly rusty. I took the car to the dealer and expected warranty replacement, given the low vehicle mileage. Dealer tried to sell me pads and rotors, didn't recommend calipers or caliper pins. I ended up replacing the rear calipers, rear caliper pins, front/rear pads, front/rear rotors, and brake fluid myself out of pocket. | ||
Feb 202214000 mi | Sounds like a bad bearing, ticking sound changes with vehicle speed. Does not change with engine speed, does not change with clutch in/out, does not change with in gear/out of gear, does not change with brakes applied. Dealer called Ford tech support several times, Ford said it's a normal noise. I'm now waiting for my transmission or RH halfshaft carrier bearing to grenade itself, then hope for warranty support. |
