Transmission issues when it arrived from out of state (I am in FL but bought it in AZ and it was shipped to the dealer). Their inspection even documented the noise coming from the transmission. It was then in the shop for 2 months and misdiagnosed as some internal components such as bearings...

Nice ride, I also have a 17 350, I had some issues at first, which I attribute to the previous owner beating on it and not taking care of it (then the dealer botching a few things) but I'd never give on up on this car. As others have said, the pure enjoyment of driving it is something else...

the funny thing is it's probably as comfortable as your F150 for road trips and probably will blow the doors off your GT 5.0 in terms of performance.

Hit and miss for me, the dealership I take my Raptor to is also the dealership who services my GT350... nothing but nice things to say about them with my Raptor... however, my GT350 story has been an absolute nightmare. I will still bring anything to them under warranty, however, any small...

Keep looking! I had some issues with my car when I first got it (I live in FL but found it in AZ for $45k 24k miles back in February). I had a new transmission put in and the dealership may be on the hook for a new engine since they botched the oil change.. However, I chalk this up to a bad...

I went with the Ford Performance catch can, it's been great and very easy to install. I got both the passenger and drivers side as they were offering a discount if you bought both.

Hey all, Update: No issues to note as of now. Once the wheel bearings come in they will finish running the diagnostic tests to see if there was potentially engine damage. After that, I have a meeting with the GM and AGM to go over how they can make it right i.e. extended warranty etc. I get...

This was after they came to my house and put in 4 quarts so I could drive it to the dealership.

No CEL at all, no warning lights or a wrench either. I'll check what the oil pressure is at on startup tomorrow morning. There ended up being 9 3/4 quarts when they emptied it. So not full up to 10 quarts but close enough. I'll look into the extended warranty as well, is that something I...

Hey all, Update again: They changed the oil, I got a sample and have asked for a sample kit from Blackstone labs. When the new wheel bearings come in, they are going to run through the engine with a fine tooth comb. The AGM is getting me the paperwork for the pre delivery inspection... the...

Yeah they are going to swap the oil tomorrow morning and asked if if like to watch, new filter and all. So tomorrow at 9am EST I should have some brand new oil 5w50. They are also going to be doing an oil consumption test... it was not consuming oil for sure lol, at least not that much. Not...

Thanks for this. Just to update you all, a tech/service van came out to my house. We ended up adding 4 quarts of oil to get to between the hash marks on the dip stick. The tech even said if it was consuming that much oil there would be clouds of smoke going everywhere and with no confirmation...

You should reread the original post, once I found out there was no oil I did not drive it lol.

Yeah definitely no track time. There's some back roads around lakes around here and took it around them a few times. I was slowly easing the new transmission in, didn't want to kick it into redline right away, I wanted to put some miles on it before I did that.

Agreed, I won't hate a brand new engine, hell I'd get the same on in the R models now right? Going from a 2017 to a 2020 engine won't be a bad deal at all to me. It's the time of being out of the vehicle but at this point, I can suffer through it, I've already waited long enough lol. I am not...

So the tech who did the oil change called this morning and said the oil change included 10 quarts of oil. So if I'm already 2+ quarts low with only 100 miles since they did it then the engine is consuming oil more than the specs call for, therefore new engine. He did say these cars consume oil...

yeah definitely no codes thrown, the only issue I seen was a "driver mode select unavailable, service now" but that seems to be related to the low voltage i.e. alternator going bad or about to fail. Battery checked out fine. It was an odd metallic clank and agreed if it was no oil it would...

Yeah she's been parked ever since I noticed this. I called the AGM on his cell phone at 8pm EST, they are sending a flat bed tomorrow morning to pick it up and he did apologize for the Hell I've been through so far. He did mention they changed the oil but it doesn't show up in any paperwork I...

Thank you! I didn't realize there wasn't a low oil light on this car... driving it only a week since I bought it 3 months ago, that is good info to know, much appreciated and now wonder I didn't get a warning light, doh! Yeah I have the maintenance plan too, it looks like they docked a...

yeah tried that, they are closed already, will call them tomorrow morning. I have the AGM cell number too, since they had my car 3 months (2 months for a misdiagnosis on the transmission, then another month to order a transmission and replace it). So myself and the AGM know each other well and...
