[QUOTE="Vman, post: 443200, member: 22091"] I dunno, I just think a lot of it is anecdotal and due to poor maintenance (generally speaking). Ford certainly had it's issues with the Tritons and their ecoboost. Even Honda with it's VTC actuators. I'll be the first to admit there are definite issues with the pentastar, and they've made poor choices in the powertrain with the transmissions and/or gearing. Lot of that though is due to modifications with people lifting and sticking on larger tires and expecting it to be fine though. With about 1% of all vehicles going over 200k annually, we're dealing with a tiny fraction of vehicles anyway. I doubt most people keep cars a lifetime like they used to. My wife has a mini cooper, so I'm well aware lol. Wanted to buy a samurai sword to commit ritual suicide after replacing the power steering pump, lines, reservoir and cooling fan. [/QUOTE]
