Consumer Description
I have a 2018 Ford EcoSport (Recall 23s64). I had asked the dealer about this recall during my last oil change that was apprx 1 month prior to breaking down. I was told I would contacted when the vehicle is ready to be brought in. I was out of town on [XXX] in CT when the dashboard warning indicated "Low Engine Oil Pressure." The car began to decelerate and I took the next exit in Wallingford Ct and called a Tow. There was no Ford Dealer in the area that would see me. My care was towed to Firestone where they diagnosed the issue as being related to the recall. I needed to get the car towed home, get a rental car, and hotel for one night because rental cars were not available until the next day. I have been in touch with Ford and the Ford Dealership. The information they are providing me is sketchy related to covering expenses related to these extenuating circumstances. I spoke with the Ford and Ford dealership about rental reimbursement 2 weeks ago. Only today was I advised that rental would only be reimbursed for Ford vehicles. I pushed back and asked for escalation at Ford. I would like clear and concise information from Ford and the Ford Dealer but they are not particularly forthcoming with information. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
