You won't have any problems in that regard since your truck is only in it's first year.

That is true. You should have no problem 3yr/36,000 miles, bumper-to-bumper.

Mine had 72,000 miles, but the powertrain is still covered for 100,000 miles. Under the powertrain, it states, "The complete engine assembly, including turbocharger components..." That is out of my owner's manual.
I thought a turbo vane position sensor was a turbocharger component.

Glad they got your truck fixed, but this is one more instance that I am glad I have old truck and think I will keep it. All these emission controls and failure and programming is leaving me with a bad taste in my mouth. I have been looking hard at all 3 but the price and the bugs for that price are scaring me away. Plus the horror stories i read on urea and stranding people. :-w Thanks EPA for helping us out.

Each time my ECM has been re-flashed due to tech. service bulletins, the fuel mileage drops. That's progress for you. Gotta Love it! New ones are still something else to drive. My truck is the most comfortable and versatile vehicle I have ever owned. We have certainly come a long way since my brothers and I rode around the western U.S in a pickup shell on my parent's '46 Ford pickup on vacations. My parents would likely be in jail today. Seat belts? Car seats? Child restraints? Who ever heard of such things. Boy we had fun growing up!

I was lucky mine mileage went up 1 mpg, I thought it was just winter fuel causing it since it set the code but since the reflash same roads its back to where it was when i bought the truck.
