    Repeated Waterpump Fails and frequent no Heat on 16'

    Small update but notable. The dealer found antifreeze coming out the oil fill cap on 2/6/19 and a small amount anti freeze in the oil pan. The dealer is thinking piston rings are damaged at this point. Ford instructed them to pull the motor and find the cause. Ford gave us a 2019 F150 KR...

    Repeated Waterpump Fails and frequent no Heat on 16'

    So with the older failures the pumps have been leaking them selves or not pumping up to spec. Also the coolant lines keep popping off the back of the HVAC ( 2 times?) General symptoms are no Heat (but AC works), Front cooling fans for the radiator/ Inter cooler/transmission cooler running full...

    Repeated Waterpump Fails and frequent no Heat on 16'

    I heard from the dealer yesterday, no clue on the cause as the system is pressure testing ok. Said the tech said it started roughly so now they are looking to see if the coolant is leaking other more "vital areas". I just had the oil changed last week so my fingers are crossed that its not that...

    Repeated Waterpump Fails and frequent no Heat on 16'

    So over the past 6 months I have had to have 3 water pumps replaced , as well as the HVAC system serviced due to no coolant or a line popping off after the water pump being replaced. In 13 months we have had the vehicle serviced for the same thing 5 times, all under warranty. All by the same...

    2015 Expedition with Very Loud Fan

    Having done a 1000 mile road trip the past 4th holiday in the south east US, My 3.5 EB fans were roaring this past weekend. I have had a water pump replaced last fall(@18K due to a leak) so Im a bit concerned. Hearing that every one else seems to have the same thing at 90 Deg + puts me a bit...

    Has buying a car really changed???

    If you are looking for used Carguru will help a ton. New , you are not likely to find any discounts at the current time. The Navs are sitting less than 9 days on the lot, the Expys are like the mid to high teens in number of days. The industry standard is like 54 days. So these are generally...

    Adding BLIS

    The main reason I got a 2016 KR instead of a Limited, is that none of the used limiteds I found from 2015-2017 had BLIS. It was a "requirement" from the Wife. We had it on our 2016 Explorer, but don't on my 2012 F150. She said with how big the Expy is she did not feel comfortable driving one...
