I've owned my 2020 for 2 years now and I'm really happy with it. I will say that I am also happy that I got the extended warranty. I've driven it across country from coast to coast 3 times in the past 2 years and it was and still is a joy to drive.
I'd just like to give a small report of the failures discovered and repaired under warranty so far.
~12k - Front driver side axle CV boot tore. Found grease dripping on lower control arm and flung on the inside of the rim. They replaced the whole axle with CV boot as one full assembly. Was about a half day job to repair
~25k - First intermittent backup Blue-Screen happened. Dealer said they updated software.
~48K - 2nd intermittent blue screen happened. Held off on reporting back to the dealer as maintenance was coming up and tell them then.
49.9K Brought in for pre-paid maintenance service and they discovered oil leaking under engine near drain pan. They added the UV dye and told me to come back to see where the leak was after a couple hundred miles. Diagnosis was the front axle disconnect seal failed. (FordBoss on Youtube has a few videos on this failure). Its also called the front hub actuator. That was 2 day repair and the also gave another update to hopefully fix the intermittent blue screen
50.8K I just discovered the front end of the transfer case is leaking oil possibly from a seal or O-ring. I will have it diagnosed soon and hopefully taken care of.
Even with the failures I listed, I still love this vehicle and I would buy it again in a heartbeat. I understand their working out the kinks on these new 3.0L engine chassis, and I happened to buy the first era I guess
