I PURCHASED MY 2013 FORD F-150 V6 3.5L FROM JONS FRIENDLY USED CARS BACK IN APRIL OF 2017. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN DOING FINE UNTIL RECENTLY (LAST 2 DAYS). AS I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK, THE TRUCK WAS DELAYING W/SHIFTING, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO AND WHICH PUT THE TRUCK INTO FAILSAFE. AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS AND IDENTIFYING THE CODE (P0270), IT CONFIRMED THE SYMPTOMS I WAS EXPERIENCING. I GUESS I'M WONDERING IS THIS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT NEED TO REPLACE (OUT OF POCKET) OR IS FORD OR THE DEALERSHIP NEEDING TO GET THIS REPLACED IF IT'S BEEN IDENTIFIED/POSTED ON THE TSB. HOW CAN I SEE IF MY CAR IS COVERED OR NOT?

VEHICLE WAS LEAKING ANTIFREEZE AND TAKEN TO GOOD YEAR. THE PART WAS NOT MADE AND IS NOT BEING MADE BY ANY FACTORY OR BY FORD. FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE MANAGER IN ROCK HILL,SC SAID THERE WAS 20 OTHERS WAITING AND THEY NEEDED PAPERWORK FOR PROOF AND A HUNDRED DEPOSIT FOR A PART THAT ISN'T EVEN MADE. GOOD YEAR MADE A TEMPORARY FIX. IF THE FIX BREAKS THE ANTIFREEZE WILL LEAK OUT CAUSING THE MOTOR TO SEIZE UP.
