I had a short bus fleet with well over 100 of those Ford 6.0 diesels as a customer (I was an ACD, Motorcraft and Mopar OE parts territory manager) and they had plenty of them repaired on Ford's dime - long after the original factory warranty expired as a result of multiple class action lawsuits.

Suffice it to say, I made a lot of money selling Motorcraft parts to that fleet while they were my customer between 2010 and 2018.

I think the 6.0 diesel repairs actually cost Ford more than $1,000,000,000.00
