my 2019 F-150 4×4

Well, I put my 2019 F-150 4×4 in the Ford shop yesterday and today they 
are putting a new engine in it.  The old 3.5 Ecoboost engine is shot 
with 65K miles on it.  They did give me a choice of $16,300 plus tax for 
an engine rebuild with new heads and assorted stuff with a 2 year Ford 
warranty.  Or $16,600 plus tax for a long block with a three year Ford 
warranty which I chose after I picked myself up off the ground.

One or more of the four cam phasers came loose and spread itself around 
the engine in small pieces after beating the heads and cams to death.  I 
could hear it on every startup.  The timing chain was just about gone.

I would have sworn that Ford had a 100,000 mile powertrain warranty but 
apparently they reduced it to 60,000 miles or 5 years a few years ago. 
Now I know why.

I am demanding that Ford pay for the new engine or half but I doubt that 
they will do so.  If they do not, this is my last Ford.  I will buy a 
Toyota Tundra next time and bad mouth Ford all over the place.  I will 
also file a event at the NHTSA vehicle safety for a possible future recall.

Lovely, just lovely.
