I have 39000 miles on my stock truck. It has been in the shop 5 times for repairs...4 were warranty. Seeing that I need a repair trip for just about every oil change interval, I would want to keep my warranty as intact as possible...but even then there is no certainty of any warranty coverage

Peace

IIRC our standard warranty is 60k drivetrain.
I don't know if we can buy extension.
I'll be flipping or chipping then, at the latest.

yeah your wanranty wont cover it if your gone past 60k km. Its not covered under the power train either as I found out. I have had nothing but problems with mine. Sensor gone and now the heater has gone on it and cost me nothing but lost time and $$$$ dollars of lost to it being in the garage. Im at the point of getting the delete just for the simple fact of not having to deal with issues. The best part ford doesnt have an answer why these parts are failing.

Wow! This is a blast from the past thread.

I tuned and deleted my trk right at 80k. H&S make a hellava tune! I bought the tuner right when the govtt was taking h&s hostage and making them pay$.

Its like a brand new trk! Its like driving a hot rod all day. Love it. Great sound and epic power. Wish I could FULLY delete the traction control for60mph drifting.

Lost the turbo at 98k miles. My diesel shop said that ford would probably cover the cost. I wanted no part of that so I payed out of pocket.

Still burning tires and smiling every day
