| Description of the problem | My fuel pump driver module which supplies power to the fuel pump stopped working and had to be replaced at 48,222 miles. Luckily, the car was not in driving mode. It would just not start in my driveway. It had to be towed to the lincoln dealership and it was diagnosed that the module located behind the rear seat back failed. That was a $488. 64 bill. I now see that this is only covered with the 3. 5 turbo mks, however, they are the same vehicles just with the turbo feature. I do feel that my situation is related to the safety recall. The vehicle would crank but the module prevented the electronic fuel pump from working. How can i receive some form of compensation for the repair of $488. 64??? That module should not have failed with a vehicle only having 48,222 miles on it. The car is in top pristine condition. I purchased another oem ford unit for a backup if this should occur again. I cannot afford another $500. 00 service bill for this issue. I will have my lincoln dealer research the new oem part so that it also will not fail. |
