Around the 4th of January 2024 I got into my Ford Eco sprot. I started the engine and it started shaking. I drove to the dealership that is about .3 miles from my home. As I pulled in the service area the check engine light came on. The service advisor told me they had just had a recall notice on the oil tensioner pump and she would check it out. She communicated with on March 1st that they had identified the problem as that part and it had caused the engine to seize. She stated that Ford was refusing to cover it as the recall had not yet been issued and requested I pay $8000.00. She told me there was nothing they can do until Ford releases the recall.

Kept getting a message on the dash saying low oil pressure then the car just completely stopped on me and wouldn't start no longer
On or about October 2023, as I was driving my car it started to lose power. I had to pull over, out of traffic, into a parking lot. The car then stalled out and would not start. I had to call AAA to have it towed to SunAuto in North Las Vegas to have it inspected as to the problem. The manager subsequently called me to tell me the engine would have to be replaced as they found metal fragments in the engine cause by the oil pump. The car was out of warranty. I had to replace the engine at an out of pocket cost of $7,300!! Luckly I wasn't driving on the highway at 65 MPH when the engine died!!

On March 8th, 2024, I was traveling full speed northbound on I-95 returning home from a family funeral. I heard a loud "whipping" noise come from the engine, then immediately received a notification on the dash alerting me to "low engine oil pressure". Within seconds, there was a loss of all acceleration capability. The car had to coast off of the highway onto the shoulder. I was in a construction zone, and luckily had just enough room on the shoulder to pull off in between the concrete dividers. Once the car was put in park, I could smell burning oil. I tried turning the car off and back on. The dash would turn on with power, but the engine would not turn over. I had to call AAA to have my car towed to the nearest Ford dealership.

I was driving when the Low Engine Oil Pressure alert came on the dash without the check engine light. The engine turned off minutes later after turning into a quick oil change garage so I was towed to the Ford dealer. Two weeks later I am told the oil pump was reading zero psi (not working) and therefore the engine seized and now needs to be replaced without even addressing the oil pump issue that caused the engine to seize. I had no warning or indication about any issue while driving. Also, a recall letter from Ford states how this vehicle's engine can stop running when driving. How is anyone supposed to know? Any guidance will be gladly embraced. Thank you.

In February of 2024, the transmission on this vehicle was bucking and jerking. I took it to Ford and they assessed it as transmission failure. I had the transmission replaced. On Thursday May 2, 2024, having only driven approximately 3,000 miles in the interim, the new transmission went while I was driving 50 mph on a highway. The vehicle had a loud bang and jerk and would not go more than 10 mph. Nothing on the dash lit up to warn of any problem. Thankfully it was very early in the morning so there was little traffic. I was able to turn around and drive on the shoulder back to my house. During that time I could hear what sounded like parts bouncing around and the vehicle sounded like it was stuck in 2nd gear. I had it taken by flatbed to my mechanic, who confirmed that the transmission is again damaged beyond repair. This vehicle has the same defective transmission as the Focus. It is a lemon and should be subject to recall or at the very least the extension of warranty made by Ford for the Focus. They know that this is a defect in the design and they should be held accountable for their error. Had it been rush hour, I could have been killed or at the very least grievously injured.
As a result of the aforementioned recall, my car stalled in March 2024. The letter I got from Ford stated, word for word, “Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving your vehicle under this safety recall.” I feel they are responsible and should assist me with transportation. This has cause a huge hardship in my family.

I received recall letter Feb 2024 regarding engine oil pump drive belt may fracture and may result in brake failure and risk of crash. I have not driven my car since Feb 2024. I do not want to crash and kill myself & other people on the road. I have called my dealership where I bought the car new in 2018 (Skalnek Ford) and they have no info on when parts will be in and I called Ford 866-436-7332 and all I get is a recording. This is a serious problem! I am upset that I can not drive my car & have no idea when repair will be done. What can you do to solve this problem with Ford? I am afraid to drive my car for fear of my brakes failing and causing a crash that may kill me and possibly other people. I hope I filled out this form correctly. I had to put a date on when "incident happened" to finish filling out this form. I did not have an "incident". I have not driven my car since I got recall letter Feb 2024. That is the date I put for my "incident". I am hoping you can help me with this problem I have with Ford. Thank you
My 2018 Ford Ecosport is in recall for oil pump failure which in turn damaged my engine and is not repairable. The recall issued by Ford is attempting to find a fix for the vehicles that have not had the oil pump fail. There's nothing mentioned in the recall about the people whose engines have been destroyed because the oil pump has already failed. We don't have the luxury of being able to continue to drive our cars and the expenses we have incurred because of this disaster is much more than those cars that have not had it happen. What about us? Ford left out the many reports that if the oil pump failed, the engine would need to be replaced or consider replacement. NHTSA NEEDS TO KEEP THIS RECALL OPEN AND REISSSUE IT WITH THE REMEDY FOR THE ENGINES THAT HAVE HAD CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE DUE TO THE OIL PUMP FAILURE.

I purchased this car on [XXX] and the car ran good for two weeks. On [XXX] I drove the car from Fort Worth Tx to Houston which is roughly 290 miles. I got 30 mins to my destination and and the oil pressure light came on. I thought it was maybe because of the long drive so I pulled over at a Mcdonalds and let the car sit for about 15 mins.

THE ENGINE STARTED TO SPUTTER AND THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON, CAUSING THE CAR TO NOT ACCELERATE
When driving on the highway my car slowed down and then completely shut off, nearly causing multiple car accidents. In an effort to get my car off the road, the car started up for a few seconds, In which I CRASHED into a tree on the side of the road. The system error that popped up on my dashboard read: low engine oil pressure. It has been almost THREE MONTHS and FORD has yet to remedy this situation. They claim there’s nothing they can do until the recall officially opens. The delay on this recall has cost me so much money! Im paying a car note AND insurance for a car I can’t even drive!!! Nor will anyone assist me with a rental!!!! I’m not even able to get to work!!!!!!!!! I’ve made so many efforts to receive any type of assistance from FORD but every time I call they basically tell me to kick rocks and deal with it, there’s nothing they will do!!!!! Im so disgusted with FORD. This is a problem CAUSED BY THEM, and they won’t even give me the slightest of assistance with a rental. This has been so stressful, and all I’m asking for is rental assistance so I can get to work- and they won’t even accommodate that. How will I pay my car note IF I CANT GET TO WORK?!!!!!?!!!!!! This makes me regret my decision buying this car.

What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
