NHTSA Complaint #11471384 — 2016 FORD F-150

3.5 liter EcoBoost engine had both exhaust manifolds warped and leaking with broken bolt. Two local Ford Dealers informed me that this is an issue plaguing many vehicles with the same engine having the same warped exhaust manifolds. The dealers also stated the only repair is to replace both exhaust manifolds with upgraded parts costing between $3000-$5000 (including labor). Having both exhaust manifolds leaking caused engine exhaust to leak into the engine compartment potentially causing danger during operation and maintenance of the vehicle. Repairs on my vehicle were completed on 6/27/2022 and the reason for delay in repairs was in part between parts ordering and dealership scheduling.
