Reading the report from the out of town dealer that did the replacement it is pretty obvious that the first dealership botched the cam phaser repair. Driving my bronco with the new motor is good so far except my catalytic converter is malfunctioning. I’m told it was probably caused by the last...
Picked up my bronco today after they dropped in a reman long block. Everything seemed good on the long drive home. The out of town dealership had great service! After reading the work report it’s pretty clear that the initial phaser repairs weren’t done properly and that led to my engine...
9/26 build week, 4dr wildtrack. After receiving my bronco at the end of October we drove it till middle of January before the cam phasers started to rattle. It was at the dealership until the first of May. During that time they had to pull the engine twice because it jumped timing on their first...
@BroncoFanTX, mine definitely has a rattle sporadicly. I’m hoping it’s fixed but we’ll see. If I do have to get it repaired again I’m definitely choosing a different dealership. Glad you got yours back and it didn’t take too long!
I got mine back last Monday. It seems ok so far. It idles a little rough and initially start up after it’s set for a while and I think sometimes I can still hear the phaser rattle. Hopefully I don’t have the issue again later down the road.
Still no Bronco. The tech finished the phasers and had everything put back together…. Then it jumped timing. Dealership said they’d know next week if there was damage. They said it’d take 3-5 days to get a long block here if I needed to have the whole engine replaced. At this point I’m not sure...
Went back to the dealership today. Some parts for the repair were on back order and finally came in. Problem now is the tech has two trucks in front of me that need engine swaps. My broncos been there for two months and they said it’d probably be two more weeks to get it back.
Just over 5k miles and mine started rattling. Been at the dealership for 6 weeks. Took 2 weeks just for them to confirm it was the cam phasers and they’re saying some of the parts are on back order till the end of the month. Hopefully you’ll have better luck when you take it in for repair.
My original ETA was 10/22-10/26 but I got an email yesterday saying delivery was pushed back to 11/3-11/9. Then today I get a text from the dealer saying it arrived today!
Hell wreck em! When I checked the chat yesterday my eta was still the original 10/22-10/26 but they had no railcar info. Checked this morning hoping to get car info and now they say it’s pushed back. I guess since it’s on csx still it hasn’t even started to head south yet.
9/28 build week here. Just thought I’d see how some of the earlier build weeks were shaking out. My tracker updated to in transit yesterday and I got the shipped email from Ford this morning. Delivery ETA is 10/20-10/26. No rail info though.
