re: Ford Eco-boost 3.5 ltr

I bought a new 2019 Expedition with the 3.5 eco-boost.
Engine had to be opened up 5 times to fix issues with the cam phasers in the first 40k miles.
10 speed transmission had to be completely rebuilt at only 48k miles.
All were covered under the warranty, but Ford must have spent $10k-$15k on the repairs.
If the transmission had waited another 2 months, I would have been stuck with an $8,500 repair bill.
I picked it up from the Ford dealer after the transmission was fixed and drove straight to the Toyota dealer. Did not stop for ANYTHING, straight from Ford to Toyota.
Neighbor, 10 speed transmission went out about 2 months after the warranty expired.
Co-worker, 10 speed transmission went out about 5 months after the warranty expired.

Yeah the Ford guys always say to stay away from the 10 speeds.

It’s 9700 today. And trust me, it hurts. 75k and I had to replace that 10 speed.
