Pretty sad to read this.
Go Ford, keep getting those Chinese parts!!

do you have data or that's your opinion? lots of these newer cars (bmw, audi, porsche) also have engine failures. engineering just ain't what it used to be across the industry. has nothing to do with overseas parts considering the german brands manufacture all within europe

The turnover created by covid and related issues isn‘t a good thing for qa/qc in any industry, imo.

Will that be good news or bad news for the folks who ordered in 1/21' haha? Was reading a FB post the other day from a guy who works on the Bronco assembly line who's literally touched thousands of 21' and 22' broncos and still doesn't have his 4D hardtop 2.7l Badlands that he 7/13/20 reserved and 1/21' ordered lol. Craziness.
