So my engine blew going to work just cruising at 70 miles. Took it to the dealer and they are going to cover it they don't know why it broke but has a hole in the block. So it's been at the dealer for 2 months already waiting on a long block with no date on when it will be ready cause of a back order. My hope is someone here has a connection that can find out how long these engines will be on backorder for.

It just randomly blew up? No other symptoms? Low oil? Knocking?

Anything done to the truck? Supercharged?

No symptoms well at least none that i noticed. Right before it blew and I mean like 30 seconds before the light came on for no oil pressure then a big pop. I was in morning traffic so i couldn't pull over fast enough. It did have some bolt on when I bought it but I returned it back to stock a couple a months ago through the Ford dealer that it's currently at.
