What Owners Say
"Intermittent engine fault light comes on and off over long period of time. Too expensive for me to replace at this time."
Anonymous, TX (2016 Ford F-150 Platinum 3.5-L V6 turbo)"A known problem on the F150 eco-boost. Not enough bolts to support the weight. It was a $2500 repair."
Anonymous, AB (2016 Ford F-150 Lariat 3.5-L V6 turbo)"Both exhaust manifolds cracked and had to be replaced."
Anonymous, AB (2016 Ford F-150 Platinum 3.5-L V6 turbo)"I noticed a change in the sound of the engine about 12 months before it was diagnosed. Twice the dealer told me that the sound was normal. It turns out there is an exhaust leak that requires the removal and replacement of the exhaust manifold. The truck is presently at the dealer for the necessary repairs."
Anonymous A., MD (2016 Ford F-150 Lariat 3.5-L V6 turbo)"Ford failed to provide 3 point connection on both rear exhaust ports on 6 cyl 3.5 liter engine ecoboost. Front two exhaust ports on both sides of the block came with 3 point connection. However the engine block was drilled and tapped at the factory for the rear ports. One could assume failure to install the 3rd bolt was planned obsolescence, an attempt to economize, poor quality control or stupidity. This exhaust failure occurred twice Ford under warranty did the first repair with oem part. The manifold was not drilled for 3rd bolt. The 2nd time an independent shop installed aftermarket exhaust manifolds on both sides of the block drilled for 3 point connection on all ports. Cost $3,200.00"

Anonymous, WI (2016 Ford F-150 XLT 3.5-L V6 turbo)"The exhaust manifold leak has been going on for probably 2 years now. Our mechanic told us that this is an issue that many pick up trucks seem to have. He told us that the manifold bolts rust and then eventually break. We haven't had the repair work done yet."
Anonymous A., NS (2016 Ford F-150 XLT 3.5-L V6 turbo)"Its a common problem to have an exhaust manifold leak out the back. The design of the Ford OEM manifold breaks on the back side and causes a leak."
Anonymous, UT (2016 Ford F-150 Lariat 3.5-L V6 turbo)"Faulty design has led to a leaking exhaust manifold on both sides of the engine. Ford is aware of the faulty design and replacement manifolds have been designed with the missing bolt hole being added. However, they will not issue a recall and cover the cost of repair."
Anonymous, ON (2016 Ford F-150 Lariat 3.5-L V6 turbo)"The problem started 2 years ago. Took it to the Ford dealership for repair. They charged $750 to fix it, but 2 months later, the problem returned. They don't know how to fix it. We are still having the problem but don't want to take it back because the service at the dealership is backed up for 6 weeks and we need our pick up. We have been disappointed in our local Ford dealership service department."

"The catalytic converter has been replaced twice. Both times the check engine light came on and the vehicle lost all power. It started again after sitting for a while and I was able to drive it to the Ford Dealership."
