Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or wheel cylinders, leading to a loss of braking efficiency.

Brake fade

Prolonged use of the brakes can cause overheating, reducing braking performance, especially in heavy-duty or high-speed conditions.

Worn brake pads

Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to maintain effective braking.

Abs malfunction

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) can experience sensor or module failures, reducing its effectiveness.

Engine misfire

The V-shaped, 6-cylinder engine may experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.

Coolant leaks

The engine may develop coolant leaks from the radiator, hoses, or water pump, leading to overheating.

Timing chain issues

The timing chain in Ford V6 engines can stretch or wear out, causing timing problems and potentially leading to engine damage.

Oil leaks

Common areas for oil leaks include the valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket, and rear main seal.

Throttle body issues

Dirty or malfunctioning throttle bodies can cause rough idling, stalling, or poor acceleration.

Fuel pump failure

The fuel pump can wear out over time, leading to fuel delivery issues and engine performance problems.
