Fan motor issues

I have a 2015 F350 and the fan motor keeps going out. Once at 30k miles and now at 40k miles. Ford says it's not uncommon. Anyone else have this issue? Should I look at aftermarket fan motor that's more robust? I predominantly use truck to tow 5er and in mtns.

Is that not a clutch fan? No motor?
If a dealer is referring to a fan motor, find another one that knows what he's talking about.

Powerstrokes have an aux cooling fan?

Go to the truck forums.

I’d bet Summit Racing has something HD.

30k to 40k on a fan motor is “normal?” Baloney!
