Yep.






Internet forums are just a small sample of all owners, and most only post when they have a problem.

I'll say that my truck runs great to start, will blow the doors off yours and will make to 1,000,000KM no problem. I tend to have better luck with my vehicles than your average internet troll like yourself.

Whoa there hombre.
National Highway Safety Administration, notice it is SAFETY not REALIBILITY.

Yes - safety was why they were investigating the F150 ecoboost. This stemmed from the acceleration stutter/shudder problem. There have been accidents reported because of the issue and it will take a few more deaths before the government reopens the investigation. Sad it comes to that.

I would agree with these links. Do your research on the F150 ecoboost application and process this in your brain. No other Ford engine has had problems worse/more frequent than the F150 ecoboost.
Here is one for you.... Can watch videos from a Ford Tech talking about all of the 3.5 ecoboost problems - google "ford tech makuloco ecoboost"

Process this in your tiny little brain.

Every motor has problems. You would have heard about the other motors and their issues had forums like this one existed 10-20-30+ years a go.

Your posts have become quite annoying to the point you have earned the title of first person I've ever blocked on an internet forum.

Keep up the good work.

It's a classic case of one bad apple ruining the bunch for some ppl. When I bought my cobra in 04, the mustang message boards were full of ppl who had suffered blown headgaskets on the drivers side of the motor, due to a weak gasket and boost. Coolant would leak down into cylinder unnoticed until it caused total engine failure. I bought mine anyway. I've been to every mustang rally from myrtle beach to Birmingham and everywhere in between. I've never met in person one single person who had experienced that issue. This was from a production of only about 10k in two years. And not ONCE did I meet ANY one with that problem.

Ya buddy I'm subscribed to fordtechmakuloco.

He is a pretty good youtuber.

It's obvious you are trying to rustle jimmies here. But most of us aren't as stupid as you are.

So it's official guys this is troll thread now.

Good luck OP I'd be concerned too. Very concerned lol

He shares a lot of good info. But you realize that the second video is more related to the 2.0 Eco, right? It is also a known issue for ALL DI engines at the moment.
