I get it, I really like the car but unfortunately in the first year of ownership it has given me reasons to question how long it will hold up. My last car was a 2016 Focus ST traded it at 116k miles and it felt tighter and quieter than the Mustang does at 20k miles.
Dealers in my area are...
My 22 Ecoboost had a clunk from the rear when stopping and starting or even when getting on and off the throttle under like 45 mph.
Dealer replaced drivers side axle, then called and said some noise is normal but this fixed the majority of it. I picked the car up and that fixed almost all of it...
Dealers will ding you for extensive modifications then turn around and ask a premium when selling the car because it has extensive modifications. But in the end, most buyers don't want to pay more for someone else's modifications and may even want to pay less due to potential risks associated...
I almost bought that same blue on mine, one dealer had one in blue and the other dealer in rapid red. I preferred the blue but for whatever reason that dealer was priced higher and not willing to negotiate so I bought the cheaper rapid red option. RR is a pretty color on its own but I regret not...
I'm sorry I mispoke, it was an Odyssey, 2018 with the new 10-speed to be exact. I just went back to look. It was a clients vehicle, I am a service advisor and was doing the warranty claim and all for that one. But yeah the older pilot and odyssey transmissions were garbage and needed early...
Even those brands aren't what they used to be. I just did a transmission on a Honda Pilot for $7500 covered under extended warranty. Double the warranty cost in one repair.
I can't speak for Ford but Hondas will still record an "over rev" event and what rpm was reached at time of event. We have had to look at it on several civic si's that "mysteriously" blew up and when checked showed 10k+ rpms followed by misfires and other misc codes.
