Hello everyone, I’ve been lurking around recently and hadn’t made an account until I was sure of completing a purchase for an ST. I’ve seen a lot of people saying to stay away from the 2020s since they’re the first year of the new gen ST and they have issues. Right now I don’t have a car and am on a budget. A 2020 ST was listed near me within my price range, and I’m going for it. 50K miles. I’m ready to face issues that may arise in the future, but, I would like to know what to expect. If anyone could help me out with that it’d be much appreciated.

I have a 2020. Bought it with 38k miles, currently have 111k miles. I run full bolt-on mods and run E50 fuel. Only issue I've run into is the Front Axle Disconnect Actuator (FADA) (just Google Ford TSB 23-2174). I have a 3rd party warranty that covered it minus the 400 buck deductible.

Other than that the vehicle has been amazing; I absolutely love it.
