Remember, there are FIVE EGTs in total. And they are EGRT_A and EGRT_B, as well as EGT_11, EGT_12 and EGT_13. If you are unsure of the acronyms, I'll be happy to clarify them for you.

If you don't mind posting your VIN and mileage, as well as the specific EGT that failed, I can tell you right now if it's covered or not.

I will try and call customer service tomorrow and see if I can get some goodwill out of the deal and maybe split the cost.

I still do not have the part number but I just got a call. They broke the DPF trying to replace it. So the sensor must be close. Now I also get a new DPF but that is under warranty.

Here's where warranty coverage falls under the "gray area". Just by the further information you've included, where they broke the DPF is a dead giveaway that EGT_13 is your culprit. After running your VIN and mileage, I was able to determine your EGT is NOT covered, if entered in as basic part number 5J213, but IS covered if entered in as basic part number 12B591 (under diesel engine part warranty). Your DPF however, IS covered under emission defect. Use this information provided, at your discretion.

It was a no go on getting the part number changed. I called C.S. and now have a case number. I have a pretty good relationship with the dealer so hopefully they will discount the service. I really like the truck but the cost of ownership is definitly higher then all my other vehicles I have owned.

so far as why the dealer is able to replace the dpf under warranty is simple the bung has also failed. Not your faults or the techs. Its a knowen that does happen. there is a tsb about retaping them if possible but I have had a few were that was not an option.

Those sensors break off in the DPF frequently. Fords answer when that happens is DPF replacement, but the aftermarket came up with a much cheaper repair:
