Under the Maintenance Interval it says to “TIGHTEN THE CHASSIS MOUNT BOLTS” and “RE-TORQUE PROPELLER SHAFT BOLT” every 5,000 miles under towing conditions. And every 15,000 miles if you drive normal. They SHOULD not loosen. Maybe its the wrong bolts or need stronger bolts. This could indicate the is not as strong as advertised.
At 30,000 you need to replace the SPARK PLUGS no matter if your towing or not. That isnt going to be cover under the warrenty, it aint cheap. At 60,000 it recommends the “INSPECT THE ENGINE VALVE CLEARENCE” if you have been towing. This is the recommended maintenance so it is not cover under the warrenty (warrenty just expired). Doing a valve job is not CHEAP. With shop rates at $50 to $70 dollars a hour theres a couple hundred dollars. If they dont have to remove the head!!!
. They dont tell us this on the commercials. Hope you have a torque wrench and some skill or a deep wallet!!!!
Nice lift how much did that cut your towing capacity?? You are so quick to bash other people and maunufactures when you dont even know what you have. Good job! Nice truck it will look good in a garage making sure that the Chassis isnt going to fall off and your drive shaft will be there in 5,000 miles. While your waiting in the waiting room look out the window at the other manufactures driving by. The funny thing is I WONT be there with you. Enjoy your Nice pretty shine new truck but dont forget to do your TORQUE CHECKS. If your doing a cross country trip take a torque wrench and the tech manual you will proably need it more than any FORD guy. Reliability is that you do a valve job every 60,000 miles and they talk about a tapping noise even the engineer who design this thing could not even be able to listen to it and tell you "Yes im 100% sure your valve dont need the gap checked".
You better buy AAA your gonna need it BUDDY.
Speechless hu? Dont even try with the recalls. If you only make 30,000 trucks a year and only 150 are feed up enough to make a stink about it then they (NHTSA) will issue a recall. The other people dont even care and deal with it. So you could be drive around with stuff broke and you could even know it. Have you asked to see if you even have a warrenty since you did all these mods?? $35,000 or more truck and you proably dont that smart!!!
Didnt mean to ruin you day but heres somthing to think about. The small fine print gets you. Should have done your research. Enjoy your truck!!!
