- The engine oil pressure was lost due to the manufacture of the vehicle and now our vehicle is currently in the hop. We do not have reliable transportation to work. - Engine went down in the middle of the highway which cost our lives at risk -Problem has not been reproduced. - Has not been inspected - No warning I am needing to get in touch with Ford manufacture to supply a solution for providing me with transportation to my job. I have spent over +14,000 in car payment to have a reliable vehicle and for me to not have a car due to the manufacture is inexcusable. I am needing a rental car to assist me with my request. I cannot wait for 4 months until the "parts" to come into a dealership for my car to be repaired.

I tried contacting Ford and they told me to contact the dealer. My car smells like burnt oil and then I got this recall notice. I called Yark and Brondes dealerships and both refuse to do a diagnostic on my car unless I pay them for a 1/2 day's wages or $160 or more. They both acknowledged knowing about the recall. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income and am really upset they won't do a free diagnostic to confirm I do not have a fractured engine oil pump drive belt tensioner arm. My Powertrain is still under warranty, and they still will not do the diagnostic free unless I have a problem. If I do have a problem, they don't have the part to fix it. In the meantime, I risk burning up my engine or having it catch on fire. I park my car in an attached garage so a potential car fire while in my garage is a risk to my safety. The car could literally burn down my house. I am told Ford won't issue parts until 2nd quarter of 2024. In the meantime, the dealerships and Ford will not help their customers and just leave them stranded. I had a Ford Milan, and they did this stall tactic on the Takata airbags. I never did get that recall completed and I tried to get the dealers to replace it multiple times. I finally was forced to turn the car in for a new lease. I was too scared to drive it. I hope you can help me. I am more than willing to let you inspect my car anytime. The engine warning light has not yet come on but when I turn off the car it does smell like burnt oil. I have kept up on all oil changes. I don't see oil leaking onto garage floor. Bottom line my safety is being put at risk while Ford plays the waiting game for profit. I am a senior and disabled. My only way of getting around is this car since I live in the country.

Wednesday [XXX] as I am driving to pick up my son from work — my car was making a rattling noise - I took it to get an oil change prior to picking up my son as it was coming up due for one — and as I begin driving to pick up my son the Low Engine oil pressure light came on. I contacted ford motor company and created a case immediately. They informed me my next steps were to take car to dealership for a diagnosis. They assured me that the issue would be taken care of that ford has given them separate instructions for this recall specifically as they are aware it is serious and potentially costly that the dealership can contact (SSC?)- their internal department and request for repair coverage and rental coverage — Thursday [XXX] I took my vehicle as requested. A loner vehicle was delivered to me on 2.18 thanks to Dan at Elder Ford of Tampa. Today [XXX] I am notified by my service advisor that the vehicle needs a new engine due to the issue. He put in two case requests one for rental and one for repair coverage but they have not heard back from ford motor company — I called ford motor company client relations again today and keep being told that because it’s an advanced recall they will notify dealers when they have the remedy and/or parts by second quarter this year — I understand for those who the issue has not yet impacted their vehicles however that doesn’t apply to me I have an inoperable vehicle and I’m stuck waiting to get confirmation of coverage for a repair I cannot afford and for a rental I cannot afford for a defective product sold to me by ford. I drive my 7 year old to and from school and after school activities I am grateful we didn’t crash or something worse didn’t happen to us. Here I am 5 days later with no resolution and no commitment from Ford Motor Company on the coverage for the loner vehicle or the repairs.

On 2/9/24 my Ford Ecosport went into complete engine failure. The dash indicator lights for oil pressure low/check engine light/powertrain malfunction while on my way home from work. I was in the turning lane at a stop light when the car died. The car lost all power and would not even turn on to get into a safe area. After pushing the car to the side- I had to call a tow truck ($154) to have the car transported to Ford. There they ran their diagnostic test ($225) and it was found to have the faulty oil pump. Because this "recall" I am told is only a "notice" - the cost to fix the car is quoted at ($9000) as it needs a whole new engine now. I am told they have "no clue" when they can fix it and I am now out a car and transportation to my full time job. I have had to rent a car (not in my name as I could not) $ 571- month- Ford refused to give me a loaner vehicle due to it not being a recall also - I contacted Ford and was told the same thing.

Received an oil pressure error message. Came on and went off multiple times. Finally came on and stayed on. Car started driving sluggishly and check engine light came on. Before I could find a place to safely pull over, the wrench icon appeared and my car lurched forward twice and then the battery light came on. I was able to put on my flashers and pull off the side of the road right before the car died. It would not even restart. I had to call for a tow and it was taken to a local Ford Dealership. It was inspected and verified that the issue was due to the recall on the vehicle and that a new motor and turbo are needed. The dealership was however told that Ford would not cover the cost of repairs because the recall is still in advance status. They were instructed to tell me I could pay the $5,600 for repairs and keep receipts to try to get reimbursed at a later date. They will not repair at their cost nor will they issue me a loaner vehicle.

While driving on the highway my car started making a clicking and knocking sound, sputtering. Then a loud sound and my oil pressure and engine light came on. I couldn’t accelerate anymore. I pulled over and had it towed.

The car lost oil pressure resulting in engine failure. When I went to take it to mechanic to diagnose I was told the oil pump belt and pulley system had failed resulting in a blown engine

While driving the car, it started stalling and making a cranking noise, was able to make it home but then, the next day, when tried to start the car, the oil light turned off, the noise was extremely loud and it turned off by itself. Called dealer and they told me about the recall and that there's no fix until mid Summer. Ford hasn't issued to stop driving the car but how can I drive a car that I don't feel safe to drive, what about if I cause an accident or if someone hits me because the car turns off? This is a serious and stressful matter, I've been having to take Uber to be able to make it to my doctor's appointments. I took the car back in Sept of last year to Alan Jay Ford in Sebring and after paying $257.84, they said the car just needed the computer to be resetted, then, car was making weird noise again and took it to AutoNation Ford Margate and after $1440.92, they said it was just a tube that needed to be reconnected. Were these repairs actually related to this recall "engine oil pump belt tensioner arm to fracture, resulting in a loss of engine oil pressure" this can increase "the risk of a crash". How is it possible that so a huge company as Ford is, doesn't have this part that is causing other major issues? I really need my car to be fixed or replaced with another car or get a loaner plus I would like an investigation to determine if the two places that I took the car failed to fix it correctly and could've put my life and my family's in danger.

Recall anounced for vehicle early 2024. Remedy still not available. Check Engine light comes on, noticeable loss of fuel pressure at times.

Our vehicle has had turbo problems for over a year and a half. The turbo was replaced once. Problems with rev hang and transmission rpm increasing randomly started happening. Then came the smell of gas/oil. The dealership had said it must be an internal problem because they couldn't find anything. Then most recently it was low oil pressure and the car dropping speed on the highway and not being able to get up to speed. It started making a rattling/clinking noise and wasn't driving well at all. It was towed on January 22, 2024, to the dealership. It has been at the dealership for three weeks now. The dealership is waiting on word from Ford on what to do for us because we are still under warranty.

I was having issues where accelerating was difficult for a couple weeks. Then I was going 70 on the highway and began dropping speed quickly (down to 30 mph within 30 seconds). I was pressing on the gas and nothing was happening. My check engine light turned on and the wrench light showed up, my screen when black and I had to pull over, felt like car stalled. Turned car off and then back on to try to get somewhere safer. Far would not go over 20 pulled into parking spot and breaks didn’t work. Got towed to my family mechanic and he drove it and said the same thing happened (he thought it was electric so send me to ford dealer). Dealer could not find anything wrong except a software update was needed. Problem was resolved but I found it hard to believe that was it. Fast forward 10 months later same thing happens. Lights turned on then off. Auto stop/start no longer working. Car feels like it is struggling to accelerate again and once I’m up to the intended speed it seems like it doesn’t want to change gears. Car basically seems like it is driving all wrong.

Almost 6 months ago, my car began to malfunction. It would not start at all. I paid $500 to have a mechanic diagnose the issue and replace the battery, but nothin worked. I had to have the car towed to the Ford dealership, and they advised me that my engine had failed due to a defect in the fuel pump tensioner, which was an issue that was under recall. They told that they could not do anything to repair the issue, however, because the recall had not been officially published. It has now been nearly six months with my vehicle sitting at the dealership, unusable, because Ford refuses to repair it until the recall comes out. They have also refused to provide a rental or loaner car so I have been out of a vehicle.
