Delivered 11/12/22 and has 1,600 miles on it as of this evening. Zero issues thus far, but am paranoid about taking it on road trips in the middle of Winter in Alaska though, so using my other vehicles for that.

21209 engine build date

4200 miles without issue. Truck built 9/7.



Same delivery date at the same dealer and I have 28 less miles than you.
It’s been great so far. Zero issues after @flip the Ruxer techs sorted the dead camera module. Second oil change 10 miles or so ago. Waiting for the oil analysis results.

4800 miles. Build date was August 9.
Was doing 90 on the freeway earlier today.
I really like Sport mode.
Seen a few 4LO full lock high rpm snow days, pulled a 3/4 Duramax out of the sand and a Suburban out of the snow.
Pretty sure it would have blown up by now.

10K miles on my FE....zero engine issues. Runs perfectly. Tons of low end power for V6. Pulls like a train from only 1100rpms. Amazing little motor. Spins 37s with ease!

So far I've got you all beat...12000+ miles and still going strong. I'll post my build date when I get a chance tomorrow.

21165. So June 14 if I did that right. And 12,461 on the odometer.
It's been to Austin for the Off Rodeo last summer and saw some mud on West Tennessee fire roads. Otherwise, driving around town and loving every minute.

I hit 90+ in mine today as well. Just opening it up a little to test it at 2900 Miles.

So 31 broken engines and 29 still running.
Not making me feel so secure.

Alright, lots of anxiety right now about the 2.7 and the "failure tracker" thread. So, figured a thread of 2.7's running great with no issues would be helpful to contrast the unfortunate bad news list.

So, if you're willing - post up your engine build date and current mileage. If this catches on, people can post every month or so with update mileage (assuming we don't all jinx ourselves) :)

Here's mine with a gratuitous picture of my Bronco. 6/28 build with 478 miles and lots more coming

You really need to sell it-it is eating you alive and killing us. I am getting really tired of guys posting their possible doomsday scenarios for attention.

I'm not sure of my build date right now, but I am at 6300 miles without issue. I did change my oil at 11XX miles and just a few days ago at 62XX miles. I've driven it hard since that first oil change. I'll throw it into sport mode and redline it a few times a day.

I owned a 2019 GT350 for a year and while I never had an engine problem, so many others did. Despite how much I loved that car, constant worrying ruined my experience with it and I told myself I wasn't doing that again. My word of advice, don't pull your hair out worrying about it. Enjoy it as much as you can. Its not worth it to worry about the what-ifs.
