Consumer Description

We were driving from an out of town trip and the warning "low engine oil pressure" came on dashboard, car lost power. My husband checked oil, was good. He turned car off and did not re-start. It was towed to nearest Ford dealer. We finally got a call on 9/25/23 that it will require a new engine! We have been researching and this issue has come up with this vehicle, even the Ford representative told me this has been an issue. It is covered under 3rd party warranty, we are waiting to get claim approved. Since this has been an issue, is there anything that can be done? I still owe vehicle and am concerned that I will continue to have issues after engine gets replaced. Thank you in advance for any help on this matter.
