Consumer Description

I was driving down the interstate in the fast lane. The ecosport I was driving flashed a low oil pressure warning and cut off. I had no choice but to get over in the fast lane shoulder. Very dangerous situation. The Tennessee HWY response team showed up and was able to get my car to the right side shoulder. My car only has 38,000 miles. After researching the problem, It appears to be wide-spread with class action lawsuits being put into place. Ford released a bulletin on the problem. This is a very dangerous situation and Ford should be held accountable for their faulty engine design.
