Knowing Boeing, they probably installed them wrong, broke them, left a tool inside, etc.

These days engines are usually leased separately from their planes and the leasing company provides maintenance, repair, and overhaul with their own MRO provider or a third party of their choice. Boeing wouldn't be involved.

The scarier trend is airlines shopping around for the cheapest MRO in South America.

That's not really a funny or helpful comment generally, but especially not since the plane in question (C-FIUV) is over 16 years old...

Kinda weird that it took 30 years for someone to notice the engine was backwards, no?
