- Avoid PTU Failure - Take your Ford/Lincoln AWD vehicle to a shop that will change the oil in the Power Transfer Unit. The PTU IS SURROUNDED BY HOT EXHAUST THAT TURNS THE OIL INTO SLUDGE THAT CAUSE PREMATURE FAILURE!

Issue started in mid 2014 (about 85,000 miles), the ptu started leaking and leaving dark inky black stains everywhere. Had it repaired ($850), they said the gasket was leaking. A year and a half later (about 102,000 miles) it starts leaking again but this time i get a burning smell at high speeds (>50MPH). I just got it back today. They said they found it leaking and metal shavings so they replaced the whole thing ($1600).
