Recall Date: Dec 22, 2023
Safety Issue:

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Ford Focus and 2018-2022 Ford EcoSport vehicles. The oil pump drive belt or drive belt tensioner may fail, resulting in a loss of engine oil pressure.

Dealers will replace the oil pump tensioner assembly and oil pump drive belt, free of charge. If engine failure occurs due to a damaged oil pump belt and/or oil pump belt tensioner, Ford has authorized dealers to replace the engine assembly as an interim repair before the availability of remedy parts for the final repair. This repair will be free of charge (parts and labor). Interim owner notification letters explaining the safety risk were mailed June 20, 2024.

Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

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.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

While driving at freeway speed, no oil pressure warning came on and car lost power, pulled to side of highway and checked oil level, oil level fine (had just had it in to a ford dealer for service 3 days prior). Took immediately to closest ford dealer who refused to look at it (suspicious). Had it towed to family mechanic, who was able to ascertain (through research) this possible oil pump issue. Towed to closest ford dealer, who claimed it would be ready in 2 weeks. Took two months, requiring rental of car (was moving across country) and then payment of transport of vehicle across country. No communication or very little with only a “will be ready any day now” for the two months. At this point I am looking for reimbursement for the repairs along with reimbursement for additional costs incurred. (I also had to fly my finances to our new home, as she would not fit in the moving truck with her seeing eye dog).

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

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.
