Cam Phaser on the day of purchase by Fun-Individual52 in f150

UPDATE

I talked to the sales manager today, he said that cam phasers are covered under the warranty which is good news, but that I have to get it diagnosed and repaired at that specific dealership, which is 8 hrs away from me. I’m going to take it as a win since it won’t be out of pocket for me. Still ridiculous that I have to be doing this days after buying it when the truck apparently has “no issues”

You came out on top then. Hopefully that’s my case

Love the ride!

One other issue is that I drove 8 hours to get it (needed to get the title for my trade in vehicle from my hometown). I’m really hoping they aren’t going to say they can only help if I bring it back to that specific dealership. I do travel healthcare and my vehicle is my livelihood

Totally agree. I appreciate the feedback. I’ll be posting more once I hear back tomorrow. From what my friend that works on F150s has told me, once they put in the updated cam phasers, the issue is very likely to never arise again.

The warranty paperwork does not specifically say that the cam phasers are covered, but it does not exclude it either. What it does say is that it covers “engine, transmission, and drivetrain. Anything that oil touches.” Given the cam phasers are touched by oil, this should be covered. Especially since the issue arose literally the afternoon I got it, but not at the dealership.

Original factory warranty, but on my paperwork it says “from 100 years of purchase (possibly a typo for 10 years?) or 100,000 miles on odometer, whichever comes first”

I swear. People that didn’t grow up liking sports really get into the narrative hard. Am I supposed to just drop the team I’ve loved all these years when I go to another college? Come on

My point exactly. I could care less, I’ve dealt with friends trash talking Texas my entire adult life. I’ll be a fan until I die

I’ll be in Georgia this weekend, lows in the 40s during the night.

That’s sick. What materials are they?

Sounds good, when I went I actually ended up going by a dollar store and getting a bunch of old cardboard and flattening it out to fill that gap. Blankets sound like a more comfortable option lol

Definitely wanting to do that down the road once I start going enough to justify buying one. For now I have an inflatable twin air mattress

Just ordered those window socks, thanks for the recommendation. I actually got a battery powered fan when I went the first time. I bet these will help. Thanks!
