So, is this just telling us that parts will be available 2nd quarter of 24.... Is that the only new thing?

Ford is amazing. They can fix errors in engine assembly with software!

Got mine as well. Seems like dealerships around me are not to thrilled about taking our trucks in to service these recalls either.

I'm having issues scheduling an appointment with my home dealership and nearby ones.

Is this exclusively a MY22 issues? If I get the new one will it be immune? I love the truck just not all these issues ailing it.

Got it also, my guess is they will continue the cutting of the grille and cutting holes in the under engine cover and a reprogramming of the pcm.
Reprogramming may allow the "knock sensor" to be sensitive to engine internal knock or possible minor loss of oil pressure. Either way internal engine damage will occur, maybe keep a rod from blowing out the side or bottom of the engine. Just my guess.
Only on early build 2022's in a certain time period so Ford knows what's causing it, internal engine problem most likely in manufacturing with something related to crankshaft, bearings or pistons.

Dealers are having a problem hiring/keeping mechanics. Backlog making appointments is normal. At my dealer there is about a month backlog to get an oil change and longer for any type of other service. Old way of doing things is over, service is bad in almost all businesses and everywhere!

According to the Post Offices Informed Delivery, mine is due in my mailbox today. Jacksonville NC post office is slow. I have a friend who mailed a Christmas card postmarked 30 November and it arrived on 05 January.

Understatement of the year “engine failure may result in loss of engine power “
