[QUOTE="JAJ, post: 16760430, member: 131874"] So, the engine problems were minimal in the 2015/16 MY cars, but they kicked in in MY2017 and didn't really fade out until 2019, which would have included some late production 2018's. There's a big social media story about "Gen 2" engines, but they really don't exist. Over the course of the engine's production life, Ford changed everything from pistons to rods to bearings to valves to cam control to fuel rails to the actual block between 2016 and 2020. It was an endless wave of rolling changes every few months. Some were probably about reliability but I expect that most were about cost reduction. At no time did the performance specs for the engine change - always the same HP and torque ratings. And the engines were, by and large, reliable. [/QUOTE]
