The Ecoboost went on sale in Europe in 2012 and this is first I have heard of this on any forum. I know the Ford Techs from my local UK Ford dealer and they have assured me over a beer that the Ecoboost 1000cc engine has no more problems than any other gasoline
( I nearly typed petrol) engine.

I do though suspect this car has been subject to rotten luck. As we do not know how many miles it has done I cannot comment on how the repair is to be carried out, but have to say that its normal to do a repair under warranty then fit a new engine lump.

Incidentally, where are your engines in the States built? In Europe ours are built in Dusseldorf, Germany.
