1 Investigations for 2021 LINCOLN Aviator

On july 22, 2022, the office of defects investigation (odi) granted a defect petition (dp22001) and opened a preliminary evaluation (pe22007) to investigate allegations of loss of motive power in model year (my) 2021 ford bronco vehicles equipped with 2.7l ecoboost engines. complainants were reporting sudden engine failure while driving resulting in a loss of motive power, often without the ability to restart. during pe22007, the cause of engine failure and loss of motive power in the subject vehicles was determined to be intake valve fracture, and the full scope of vehicles affected by the subject defect was identified as all my 2021-2022 ford and lincoln models equipped with either the 2.7l or 3.0l ecoboost engines, referred to as the “nano” engine family. if an intake valve fractures in the subject engines, it may drop into the cylinder and contact the piston, often resulting in catastrophic engine damage. on september 29, 2023, pe22007 was upgraded to an engineering analysis (ea23002) to further investigate the subject defect across the full scope of affected vehicles. during ea23002, odi visited ford facilities to review technical information related to intake valve fracture in “nano” engines, coordinated with nhtsa’s vehicle research and testing center (vrtc), and analyzed updated field data relating the subject defect. forensic analysis of fractured intake valves demonstrated that the defective components exhibited “grinding burn” or out of specification hardness in the area of the keeper grooves. the presence of grinding burn is evidence that during the groove grinding phase of production, the temperature of the valve became sufficiently high to alter the microstructure of the material and is indicative that the valve supplier’s manufacturing processes were not within control specifications. grinding burn results in a hard, brittle microstructure and high residual stresses toward the surface of the valve. through normal engine loading, a valve with grinding burn will likely fracture at the area of highest vulnerability, which is the third keeper groove. in its response to the ea23002 information request (ir) letter, ford provided evidence of 396 customer complaints (including field reports), 825 warranty claims, and 936 engine exchanges. when considering both odi and manufacturer failure report data, there have been reports representing 1066 unique vehicles within the subject vehicle population. analysis of the failure report data demonstrates that vehicles equipped with potentially defective intake valves were built within a production “spike period” of may 2021 – october 2021. the beginning of the spike period corresponds to a ramp up in production at the valve supplier manufacturing facility, and the end of the spike period aligns with the implementation of several mid-production process improvements and the decision to change the metal alloy used to produce intake valves from “silchrome lite” to “silchrome 1”. ford began investigating the subject defect in july 2021, determined the root cause, and took corrective measures for the new production vehicles. analysis of the failure report data demonstrates that these corrective actions were successful in eliminating the risk of intake valve fracture for subject vehicles produced after october 2021. however, ford did not take any field action to address vehicles produced during the spike period, and in the several months following the implementation of the production changes, a significant number of field failures continued to occur. it is ford’s assessment that not all valves produced during the spike period are defective, and that failures associated with the subject defect occur at low time in service. analysis of the failure report data demonstrates that the vast majority of failures have occurred before 20,000 miles with over half of all reported failures occurring before 5,000 miles. the rate of reported failures related to the subject defect has steadily decreas
