Looks like 2016 is where Ford finally got their shit together on the trans issues. Apparently it was a lot of little things.
With all three of these fixes now in effect, Ford Australia’s head of communications, Martin Gunsberg, told CarAdvice that the great majority of vehicle owners that are on the final specification fix for the powershift transmission are happy with their vehicles.
“We’ve fitted the latest clutch to around 12,000 vehicles and we’ve seen a very high customer acceptance rate. Any repairs, including the latest clutch fitment, are completed under warranty. We’ve extended the warranty for wet shudder up to seven years, dry shudder up to five years and 10 years on the TCM. Any which way, we’ve got you covered," he added.
I'm really only considering this because there's 2 lots full of these things and $12k + 0% APR and a 60,000 mile warranty is pretty insane. If this was flying under the radar like the Ralliart/EVO X nonsense Id be a lot more concerned but Ford definitely seems like they're taking this shit seriously. Still a backburner option that I'm checking out first because it's right outside my door.
