My Trucks Engine Died So I Purchased A New One From A Company Called Powertrain Products. I Also Purchased The Highest Warranty Option They Had. Long Story Short What Was Supposed To Cost $3k In Labor Has Now Cost Me $13k In Labor Due To Them Sending Me 4 Defective Engines.

I got about 6k miles out of the first engine, looked past some issues with it that were apparent immediately since I had just dropped $5k on the engine and another $3k on labor, didn't want to go through the warranty again which only reimburses a portion of the labor and also didn't want to be without a vehicle again.

After the 6k miles I'm too worried about the engine dying when I'm on a free way which would be dangerous so I bite the bullet and file a warranty claim, knowing it would cost me about $2k out of pocket even after the warranty reimbursement and would take weeks for me to have my truck back.

I pay the shop their labor costs and pick up my truck. Not 200 miles later the engine starts having the same lifter issue. I go back to the shop.

They eventually determine it needs a new engine. Boom, another $3k in labor that I pay for.

I pick up my truck. This time it doesn't make it 100 miles and goes into "limp mode". I tow it to the shop. They do $1500 I'm diagnostics which I'm responsible for.

Then guess what? Needs another engine at 3k in labor.

At this point I owe the shop $7,500 in labor. The warranty company will reimburse me $2,400 (they said it takes them 4-6 months to process warranty claims).

I'm at a loss on what to do. I was prepared to pay the initial portion that wasn't covered by the warranty reimbursement but for it to need multiple engines subsequently is something I can't afford. I've also been without a vehicle for 6 months as this is how long its taken to get even to this point. They're not exactly amazon prime when approving and sending out the new engines.
