Consumer Description

On Saturday my low oil pressure light came on suddenly as I was pulling into my driveway. I had just gotten my oil changed 2 months ago. The next day I took my car to Jiffy Lube, and as I was getting there the check engine light came on. The mechanics at Jiffy Lube stated it could be the oil pump valve. After that I decided to have my car towed to the local ford dealership to have it checked out. Today the dealership called me to inform me that my engine needed to be replaced and the cost would be $7500. The car is only 5 years old and has 84K miles. I am an extremely good driver with a clean record, and I also get my oil changed at the recommended interval at the ford dealership, so I do not believe that it is a driver issue.
