Personally, I would want any engine that I purchased to last more than 2,600 miles. Period. They may or may not help you, but you're not the first on this forum to have a problem with a Roush engine.

You'll be well into your retirement years before you hit 2,600 miles, so no worries there.

All engine builders have problems. Roush motors seem to get a lot of attention on CC when there's a problem. I had a couple of problems with my Roush, but I had two great advocates in Stephen Bramlitt at Full Throttle in Reno and Steve Wood at the Mustang Ranch who brokered the repairs with Roush.

If at all possible, ask the dealer to get involved to negotiate with Roush.

RodKnock - Glad you got a sense of humour. You don't last long here (or in the World) without one.

James - Hope you get this resolved and get back on the road soon.
