Post your mileage plus reliability poll.

[Jdog]

What's failed? Big or small.

"Minor stuff" for the puspose of this poll will be something either cosmetic or that would be easy and cheap to fix even without warranty. Say, less than $500?

Something major would of course be a problem with the engine, transmission, driveshaft vibrations like some of the GT guys are having or the scariest problems of all...electrical. Also, oil consumption but only if more than the 1 quart Ford says is normal. We'll leave limp mode out just because it's been addressed in newer models.

What is considered "minor stuff"??
I have over 12,000 miles with no issues including nothing minor in my opinion. Well, unless you include limp mode for '16 Tech packs, which I haven't seen either. :shrug:

... and yes, I've tracked this last weekend without issue at Sonoma Raceway.

 

[Shift]

~9k miles, no issues yet aside from recall for oil lines. Still drives like a beast.

 

[Hack]

I voted only minor stuff, but I did have my front passenger side magneride shock start weeping and it was replaced. Some may call that major.

The other issues with the car have been caused by the dealer.
Incorrectly assembled splitter which I ended up fixing because the dealer wasn't capable of doing it.
The recall oil lines leaked when the dealer first installed them.

On edit: of course I've also replaced the transmission and had the rear suspension and subframe out of the car to work on the rear diff. Are those defects? They are pretty major parts of the car that didn't function properly on the track.

6500 miles on my '17 and no issues whatsoever. Burned a tiny bit of oil; I added a quart at about 5000 miles.

Soooooo! I have had two cars but can only vote once????. My Track pack had 1 engine failure at 4k miles. My R has almost 5K miles and no issues.

My car went through 2 engines. First one at 3500 miles.

Second engine used lots of oil from the start.

Ford bought back the car at 12,000 miles.

I hope Ford can get the problem resolved. The car was amazing to drive and had lots of soul (more than my C7 Zo6 anyway)

Sorry to hear about the trouble...at least they bought it back.


As for me, mine's been rock solid. Very little oil burn, no trans or clutch issues, and no weird sounds or whatnot. Tight as a drum.

2016 Tech, 462 miles, 16.2 MPG, oil line recall and 1qt top off after (dealership left at lower indicator), no issues thus far and no

limp mode even in 103' Texas heat...I love my car!

 

[Offboost]

2017 No issues at all 11000 miles only took it in for the oil line recall car is solid. Need to add 1/2 quart about every 1000 miles but I consider this normal. This car is just a amazing fun car to drive with pure driver engagement!:ford:

 

[Minn19]

My 16 tech pack had it's engine replaced at 5000 miles for excessive oil usage, it used a quart roughly every 300-400 miles at the end. My second engine was fine and the current engine in my 17 has used 1/2 a quart in roughly 1800 miles. This included a track day though and some spirited driving on backroads.

Also, my 16 tech had a hole in the weather stripping under the rear windshield that caused it to leak into the cabin. Then the usual QC issues such as panel gaps etc and both of my cars have/had quite a few rattles.

 

[Stoked]

2016, Built 9/11/15 - currently at 7400 miles. No issues whatsoever. Cleared out my catch can for the first time yesterday, after 3000 miles of driving with it I had about 1.7 oz of oil in it.

 

[Paul@PKAUTODESIGN]

2016 tech pack

Mileage: 12,910

Passanger front ride height sensor failure first 4 months which causes the vehicle to not go into any other mode but normal
Oil consumption issue with metal shavings
Exhaust Actuator valve loose

Now I currently have a clicking sound like a CV joint is failing

 

[eric n]

19,000 miles (right at 1000/month). I had my ac quit working for a couple of days. I took it to the shop and it worked fine, no problems since. I have had a few little electronic gremlins, like back up cam not working, won't go in drive modes, which is a sporadic issue.

Other than that it works fine.

I think the poll is flawed! Combining all "other" issues with "catastrophic failure" is to broad to determine any sort of reliability. Maybe a more specific title would yield better results. And as I mentioned earlier, some here have or do own multiple 350's and can only vote once. But for fun I guess it's ok.
