My 24 2.0 has a crack on the side of the transmission. The airbox was out for fluid change when the tech saw the crack. For

Good job by the tech, spotting that and letting you know.

Now warranty kicks in and takes care of the repair for you, I imagine.

Let's hope it won't be long before it is in to the shop and you are back on the road in no time!

Have a good one,

It has 45000 miles but the power train warranty is still good. I hope Ford doesn't get me headaches.

Any leaks?!

is that the case? looks like a foam type insulation

It's metal

Good thing you didn’t wait until 60,001 miles to change fluid!

Sucks to have to deal with that crack though

Interesting. So, question begs….any other see this?

Might be just a casting mark not a crack.

That's what I thought, the OP said there's no leaking

Hate to see that. I had a situation like that….on my son’s Mitsubishi GT3000. Transmission leaking. An alum cover cracked. Removed it, degrease it. Took small rotary file to do V notch over crack. Then added JB Weld. Fixed it. Happy.

You have to pull the trans to get to this part. It butts up to the wheel well.

This is hopefully the situation and that whether Ford replaces it or NOT, get it in writing so that if LATER there's an issue you can report back that the issue was pointed out before the warranty expired.

No leaks to me is proof this is a production issue with the housing and not a crack that formed in an otherwise normal transmission.

Not according to the Ford tech.
