I have done my own auto repair for years, and have replaced a few failed or failing starters, none of which were @ less than 100,000 miles.   After a little research, I found out that Ford \"created\" their Coyote engine with the Auto Stop/Start feature as a fuel economy measure to satisfy USEPA.  However, this resulted in a several orders of magnitude increase in the number of starts within any given time frame (say, over the course of a year) and, since Ford did not re-design the starter to account for this radical increase in the sheer number of starts, starters are failing early.  Mine failed @ 46,000 miles, and I've read multiple online posts from owners of this engine that had to replace the starter, one as early as 27,000.
