This Problem Across All Years
My husband and I were driving down the interstate out of town and the oil pressure light came on as we were exiting. We were close to our destination and decided to check the oil when we stopped. Within seconds I could not accelerate beyond 40 MPH with RPMs climbing up to to 5-6. We checked the oil stick which was fine. Tried to drive to the ford dealership which was less than 3 miles away. After getting less than a third of a mile from where we were the dash lit up and went completely dark and wouldn’t start up.

The GPS, Radio, backup camera malfunctions. When the backup camera turns on while I’m driving it’s very distracting. I have videos of the malfunction while it is happening. A few different things happen. I’ve heard of this happening in other eco sports. I do not have the money to have the dealership repair something that isn’t a recall unfortunately. I don’t think there were prior warnings. Recently while driving it popped up on the screen phone volume but there are no phones connected. Sometimes the screen works fine other times it’s black. There are times when it’s blue. Times the backup camera turns on when my foot is on the brakes. The radio stations won’t change when it acts up. No GPS. The phones don’t sync to it anymore. It isn’t synced with the app anymore so I can’t remote control start it and can’t find it on my app if someone else is using it. Since the time changed it is an hr behind. If I change it to the right time it goes back everytime the car is shut off.

I was on the highway when my car started to light up on the dashboard and the car started to slow down and wouldn’t move. Took it to ford and they had to replace the whole engine but now even after the replacement the car is slow, doesn’t heat up and shakes.

A couple year ago I got a random pop up saying low oil pressure I pulled over immediately and started hearing a noise. I called around and got told I should tow the car to a mechanic. Then, I was told I had to get a new engine, and that was not cheap. I have also had the problem where every time I get into the car the screen turns off and says “turning off to save battery” sometimes the screen turns back on and sometimes it stays off not allowing me to see navigation. Plus when this happens it sometimes turns my whole dash and air conditioning off, and I am unable to use the reverse camera. Now there was a recent recall on my vehicle for the low oil pressure warning. But I have also had multiple problems with the auto start stop function where I have to manually turn it off every time I get into the car, the reasoning is because multiple times on the road the car would not start and I would have to put the car in park and restart the car but on hills it really has a problem starting.
