| Description of the problem | While driving about 20 mph through a residential neighborhood, vehicle lurched and jerked with a large thud. Thud was engine failing due to no oil pressure - oil not getting to engine. Limped home, car not able to go more than 30 mph to drive to dealership. Not shifting between gears. Had we been on highway, much bigger issue could have occurred - we were able to stop safely as we were in our own neighborhood. Ford is replacing engine but [xxx] (service manager at walker ford, clearwater florida) has told us this is the fourth 2016 f150 that has come back to their dealership for a full engine replacement, and decision was made to continue selling because percentage of affected vehicles is a gamble. We bought truck 1/2/17, engine failure occurred 1/26/17 at odometer reading of 844 miles. Dealership in possession of truck since 1/27/17. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
