My son's 2020 Explorer AWD with 3.0 Ecoboost engine had the cam phasers replaced.
Salient details; 76K miles, mostly highway. 6K mile OCI with Valvoline synthetic since new. No towing or mountain driving.
24 book time hours by Ford Master Tech
Parts; left and right exhaust manifolds cracked, replaced
both cats compromised from broken manifolds, replaced
cam phasers, not sure if all four or just two
both front axle shafts with CV joints
ancillary parts, list is nine pages long
Cost; including labor $9K+ Ford extended warranty covered all but $100 deductible.
Extra; four new Motorcraft shocks $1400, paid for by owner.
I'd say that's a pretty impressive repair.
