Bronco sport 1.5 liter engine and transmission leak.

[lathanmary]

Hello. I have a 2023 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks with the 1.5 liter. It only has 17,000 miles. I asked my husband to change my oil. He advised he found that the oil pain bolts were wet with oil. He inspected more and found that the oil leak was coming from the timing chain cover gasket. Or from the rtv gasket maker they used. He also found that the transfer case was leaking from where the cv axle inner joint connects to the transmission. Also, the transmission oil cooler may have a leak as well.

We took it to the dealership and they are going to fix everything under warranty. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Also, we sold or 2003 Ford Escape which had a timing cover gasket leak. So kind rough to by a new car with the same problem. Ford is still Using RTV gasket maker on timing chain cover gaskets?
