Ford won't buy it back unless it meets your Lemon Law requirements. Check your state laws. If they replace the engine within the timeframe, they have met their requirements l, if not get the process going the day you meet it
Again, state laws are different by state but typically you get back what you paid, less a mileage fee (minimal in your case), plus extras you had added, plus interest and reg fees/taxes.
This will not fall under a multiple repair attempt claim, you will fall under the amount of time out of service since it will be a motor replacement.
Tennessee Lemon Law:
The Tennessee lemon law establishes a presumption that a reasonable number of repair
attempts has been undertaken to conform the motor vehicle to the applicable express
warranties if either of the following occurs:
1. The same nonconformity has been subject to repair three or more times by the
manufacturer, its agents or authorized dealers during the term of protection, but the
nonconformity continues to exist; or
2. The motor vehicle is out of service by reason of repair for a cumulative total of 30 or
more calendar days during the term of protection.
