I am new to this site, but not new to Mustang ownership (68 Shelby GT350, 89 Saleen, 70 coupe, 07 Saleen Parnelli Jones). I am looking at a 2020 GT350. Car fax lists "engine removed to complete repair" I am assuming the engine was replaced. Can anyone help out and check the vin in OASIS?

Don't leave us hanging!
Sold 2/21 and now has 12k miles. In order these items replaced between 5/21 and 8/22:

Timing Chain Tensioner (Recall)
Oil leak -loose drain plug
Replaced engine (long block) - making noise and two cylinders found with scoring
Front facia replaced - factory defect
AC failed - compressor and other parts replaced
Transmission replaced - was making noises and a whine

I've done about 90 oasis for the guys here , most of the cars had the a/c compressors replaced , it was eye opening the problems Ford has had with these particularly on the GT350 models ....

I think the 8k plus rpm is killing the compressors. It was probably designed for the Mustang and the rpm plus the vibration of the voodoo is probably causing them to eat themselves. Just a guess.

I was looking at a 2012 Boss 302 recently and it had the same exact “lingo” on the CarFax about the engine. Same is also true when a M6G member was able to run an OASIS; the engine was replaced under warranty at only 12k miles in 2013….

OASIS reports can contain a wealth of info for those seeking a niche vehicle like a GT350, or other limited edition Ford. As long as the vehicle was serviced during its lifetime at Ford Dealers, OASIS will have maintenance history, warranty history, original in-service date, any Extended Warranty info, and if the vehicle was ever a prior Ford RAV Buy Back.

Beautiful car. Congrats. Question, the few times I’ve been to Maui it didn’t seem to many places to enjoy a car like this.

@Lilmags500 Thanks again. She is on a truck heading to my sister in law's house and then to Hawaii.

There is a drag strip and SCCA does autocrosses a few times a year. There is a pretty active car culture here. There are a couple if roads that if you know where and when you can play a little.

It definitely is not like California where I had 5 tracks to choose from and lots of hidden gem roads.
