It's 100 cases of the isolated loss of power problem. Doesn't count all of the overheating and turbo problems.

Got some citations for those? The only turbo problems I've heard of where some of the F-150s came from the factory with the actuator arms adjusted incorrectly. Ford's concern with people tuning them made them take an overly broad approach to the problem--replace the whole unit instead of just adjusting it and messing up the paint mark they use to tell if it has been changed. Again, very small numbers affected. Compare that to say the 1-2 shift problem on Camaros or the disappearing oil in the LLTs. I know you really want the TTV6s to be failures, but picking such minor stuff to push your agenda is pretty lame.
