Thank you so much for the clarification. Appreciate that. I hate the unknown and I hope it doesn’t ever happen. I feel really bad for those who have had this terrible experience.
Warranty or not it’s definitely an aggravation.

So I need some help! My dealer is trying to say that I got water in my cylinders and it is not covered by warranty. How am I able to get that in there when I have never been in 24" of water. We are suppose to be able to go through 30+"........ WTF!!!!!

Every cylinder and all water plus oil blow through out my engine when I’d crashed most likely yours crashed like all of them and the water came from the destruction when it blew the lines. You have someone in service misinformed call Ford

So are they trying to claim it got in through the airbox? Seems like the only way could happen without something happening internally.

I already know it is........
I see the problem, you washed it, clearly it was submerged in the car wash, and the engine succumbed to the flooding. It's obvious!So this weekend, driving my BD 2.7. Engine started coughing,, sputtering & conking out on me. Luckily I made it home. Had it towed to dealer on Sat morning. She is a dirt mountain veteran. Julian number is 21167! Ford on this forum has started a case for me. Just got off the phone with my dealer. Said they can't even look at her for at least a week!!!!!
4,400 miles on her. Never had a problem till now!!!! The last time I saw my Nellie
That case number is about as useless as @Ford Motor Company's account is here. It also sounds like your dealer is a complete tool. You need to call Ford Customer Service and the New Vehicle Team to have them start working the issue. It's an early service failure and needs to be treated as such.
Water in the cylinder, right, sure that's the problem... right after you sailed it down the Guadalupe river as a barge. GTFO with that BS from the dealer.
