Ford extending powertrain warranty on all 6.0's?

CaFordDude · Jul 24, 2007

There is a thread going over at "The Diesel Garage" where a user is claiming to have heard that Ford plans to announce that they will be extending the powertrain warranty on all model year 6.0's to 200,000miles.

I find it hard to believe but has anyone heard any similar rumblings? Maybe someone in the know like a FORD employee or maybe a dealer that still has access to insider info...

hint hint vince, ernie et al...

I'll take a look!

nope, don't see anything. Even went to the parts manager, and he looked for any notices for him to stock more parts.

Seemed kind of far fetched to me with them in a bind with International and all but figured I'd ask.

It's a myth that's been around for a while. Nothing more than a myth, mind you...

Started about 1 or 2 years ago when GM increased their warrenty on the injectors for their motors. Due to some issues they were having, they increased it (to what I do not remember). At the time, many Ford owners "wished" that Ford would do the same.

If I remember correctly, GM did it to save "face", customer loyalty and to maintain the used truck market/demand for their trucks & motors.

I wish it was true... but as our resident techs have posted... just an inter myth!!!
Oh well.... back to drinking and being unemployeed... :beer:
