The reason the Escape was out there, the lawsuits had already started, and failures were occurring all over the world. Depending on the severity of the defect, these Mavericks may get 50 to 80k miles before engines start blowing. They know what engines those cranks are in and what vehicles they were installed in and the installation time frame as posted in the article.
Depending on the severity of what defect. There hasn't been a defect connect to the Maverick.
You're the person that can explain the crankshaft issue. I'm very confused about the escape recall and since the Maverick uses the same 2.5l Atkinson motor, how can you install 25 bad cranks in 204 engines and only 166 were in this country. Do you see why anyone would be suspicious of Ford doing modifications. What am I missing here?
I understand that the crank issue is strictly an Escape problem and FORD has identified all engines with bad cranks. NONE were installed in Mavericks and the recall fix is just a feel good for Ford and Maverick Owners. I am still going to OPT out of the recall. I still feel the holes punched in the pan will do more harm than good by opening the engine compartment to the elements.
Youre cute lol you know youre a winner when youre trying to prove yourself more mechanically qualified than someone else on the internet. I’m not here to prove my qualifications to you lol just getting a giggle out of what you think of yours. If you had any humility… you’d read the other critical comments from numerous other members and realize… oh ya… i’m full of poop lol anywho. Enjoy your ignorant life
Also as for your specific challenge… i already told you lol bearings arent for reciprocation lol theyre for rotation… but i guess as an engine rebuilder you already knew that huh….
