Also re read the below statement not just the 3 mentioned in the last paragraph.:

"Ford Australia has instructed its dealer network to stop the sale and delivery of the remanufactured Ford F-150, after several vehicles presented with a turbocharger fault related to the remanufacturing process."

“Out of an abundance of caution Ford Australia has placed a temporary hold on F-150s that are on their way to dealers or in dealer stock, after three re-manufactured vehicles presented with a turbo-charger related concern.”
The key here is “turbocharger related concern”……that’s not necessarily a failed part.
This is big as it goes to faith in the whole complicated process while FOA is trying to have proof of concept
to do more vehicle conversions…….makes me wonder what sort of learning curve other brands like Ram and
Silverado had that we never heard about…it’s the little things that bring you undone….
