What to expect after 100,000+ miles


Recommended Posts

I read "what to expect after 200,000 miles+" and I'm a long way away from that but what about after 100,000 miles.

Its my wifes car and its been a great car! which has me wondering (since everything breaks at some point) whats going to break first and will it leave her stranded?

I say 1st. because other than tires, brakes and wipers, oil changes nothing has broke! Happy to say "What a car" Great job FORD!

Speaking from 130k+ miles.

 

New PTU, replaced brake booster, 1-tie rod end, windshield washer spray nozzles, 1-vacuum hose, power seat back lumbar assemblies (both drivers and passengers), new TPMS units (one failed, replaced all four), new valve core on spare tire (rotted ftom age), replaced Chrome wheel (hit a curb), new battery 3x, drivers door handle, new accordion sealing strip on drivers side (seals BAMR sliding glass, old seal softened in hot sun, twisted when closed and became fixted in twisted position). New shocks on rear. 

 

Recalls; gas tank (was rusted on top), air bags. 

 

All prior to 130k, nothing since (so far).

 

All maintenance done at Lincoln (Ford)  garage, Motorcraft parts (100%).

 

Routine maintenance done per Lincoln  Maintenance Manual (plugs, filters (oil, air, cabin & seat), all fluids changed, plugs at 90k, wiper blades, headlight bulbs. Coolant change over from gold to current. 

 

Water pump still good, struts good, transmission & engine good. All systems nominal. 

No leaks engine or transmission or rear differential. 

One minor rust spot on roof black strip next to BAMR (hit by flying rock).

If this helps, I've kept a log of maintenance done on my 2011 Limited. First few entries are previous owner off the Carfax,  I've owned it since 40K miles and any 2016 entries (like the PTU failure) and have  attempted to maintain 5K mile oil changes and tire rotations:
