The common issue with these engines, the water pump.

Look what they took from us...

What a stupid design. The engineers at ford need to be hung up by their scrotums with vice clamps.

An internal water pump that fails into the crankcase...brilliant..

Great video

The engineering team tha did this to us needs to be dragged behind a truck till the screaming stops.

This is a car manufacturer telling owners "Fuck you!" in a silent way.

Ford has been screwing there customers and mechanics for as long as I can remember. As for my chevy, I can change the water pump, thermostat, belt, new tensioner, all filled up, running in about 1 hour. GM & Mopar have always been far more mechanic-friendly than Ford.

DONT BUY ONE EVER FORD JUNK

That is a mess. It is really a great engine. 200k is common for these engines. Almost bulletproof. That water pump is it's Achilles' heel. It costs thousands to change out. Besides the pump, it should include new chains, gaskets, guides, and like 9 hours.

what f-ing idiot put the pump on the inside?!

Planned obsolescence. Water pumps should be external period. Not a part of the fucking timing chain assembly.

stupid position for a water Pump

Another reason I don't own a Fixed Or Repaired Daily! Not to mention the build in AI NANNY TECHNOLOGY THAT FORD DESIGNED coming in 2027

Stop buying these cars!

Having to take out the timing chain just to replace a water pump is another level of insane.

Chrysler did this with the concord and Lhs models. My sister had 1 go out. Oem used plastic impeller and only sign of water pump failure was plastic in radiator. Total pain , my only advice with these types is to start car before sealing up. One tooth off will not start.

Am I seeing this shit right? Its powered by the timing chain. What special kinda bullshit is this ? Oh hell fn no.

I would not buy a ford made after say 1990.

Why would they make it so difficult to get the water pump?

Yep. Water pump blew on my Ford Edge. They wanted $8K to fix it. Nope. Got rid of it and won’t buy another @Ford again

Criminal

Internal water pump... that is next-level retarded engineering!

How much does it cost, roughly to replace this water pump???

Suddenly electric cars weren't so bad after all..

You really should change the chains in the chain guides too while you're in there.

No oil pump or cam phasers?

Putting the water pump inside the engine is crazy. I'll only ever buy a vehicle with components that are easilly accessible. Otherwise, what a pita.

Big money maker for the corporations, at the cost of the customer.

Damn! That's a LOT of work to replace a water pump!

Fuk that !

Holy shit

🤯 Da fuck!!!!!?
