QuickChat: How Ford and Motorcraft® Powertrain Assemblies Save Time, Reduce Risk and Build Trust

Sept. 26, 2025

In this QuickChat with Ratchet+Wrench, Matt Patterson, Parts Operations Manager with Ford Motor Company, shares why Ford and Motorcraft® powertrain assemblies are the go-to choice for auto repair professionals. Choosing the right replacement parts is key and there's good reason to go with OEM engines and transmissions built, designed, and continuously updated by Ford. With Ford and Motorcraft, what comes out of the vehicle is precisely what goes back in, engineered to factory standards and supported with the latest enhancements.

Another critical consideration is the No Risk Core return policy that ensures that shops receive full credit in the event of a unit failure, no surprises. For added confidence, Ford offers some of the industry’s strongest warranty coverage, offering unlimited mileage, no commercial exceptions, and nationwide coverage – among other important details. With complete Ford and Motorcraft powertrain assemblies that are close to plug-and-play, installations are faster and easier, saving repair shops valuable time.

Watch the full QuickChat video now to see how Ford and Motorcraft help deliver lasting value to both shops and their customers.
