IT has been a month and the after market warranty company is going to show up today at the dealership. Hopefully to approve my new engine. Has anyone else suffered a catastrophic failure on their 2019 ? My vehicle has 64,000 miles on it and I have taken excellent care of the motor. Just wondering if this is a thing with these 2.3 engines?

I just had a failure last week. Code P0303 (Engine Misfire). Looks like we are toast!! It is reported to me that there is coolant making its way into the cylinder and that a new remanufactured engine will need to be installed. Bummed out man!! Looks like my Mechanical Failure coverage may cover it, waiting for confirmation on it now!!

I agree, sounds like the "excellent care" that has been shown to the motor included letting it run low on oil.


"Update: On Friday I took the Ranger to the Ford dealership. It has bee there one full day. The service advisor told me that the oil was low and verified if they could do an oil change on it. I am wondering where that is coming from because the other shop did not mention anything about that. "
What's considered low? 1/2 quart? 1 quart? 2 quarts? A service adviser saying that to cover his ass means nothing unless an amount was specified. 1 quart low won't kill an engine.
 

Friday yet?

I think it went sideways because some of y'all asked too many pertinent and pointed questions.

And then it went off the rails as most of our threads do after a certain amount of time.

But have you noticed on THIS thread there's not yet been mention of tailgate dampers or 303 being at fault for the wrecked engine? Amazing!!
