My friend's 2019 somehow lost too much oil although he did not see and puddles or smell any burning and now Ford is installing a new longblock. Anyone else heard of this?

Did he ever bother to check the oil every now and then?

 

Is this a 5.0 litre? And ya did he check oil?
How much oil do you have to lose before warning lights start to chime?

 

I maybe wrong here but I don't think Raptor ever had 5.0 on Gen 1 or 2.

 

The Gen 1’s came with either a 5.7L or 6.2L. And, of course, the Gen 2 doesn’t come with the 5.0.

Shortly after purchasing my truck, I stumbled across a thread where folks were reporting their Raptors oil level wasn’t filled properly from the factory. I was shocked to read owner after owner reporting low oil levels on the day of purchase. I immediately went out and checked mine... and now I check weekly.

 

5.7 , there it is . For some reason I thought it’s a 5.0 even

 

No it is a 3.5 as all 2019 are I believe. Yes he did check the oil and no warning lights or bells.

Is this thread for real?

 

Yes it is. His truck is at the dealership now.

My '19 Raptor was about one pint low when I got it from the Dealer and it's not the first new vehicle I've bought that was not completely full when I picked it up.
It's definitely a good idea to check oil regularly on a new engine to make sure you know if it's loosing oil for whatever reason.
