Consumer Description

January 2025 Vehicle experienced verified oil belt tensioner failure as the same in the recall #23564 My VIN is not in the recall list even though it is the same make model and year of the effected vehicles. The reason I believe it is not on the recall list is due to that they only included automatic transmissions and not the vin's of manual transmission. I have a manual transmission and so my VIN reflects a manual transmission. The transmission has nothing to do with the oil belt tensioner in this case as the motor/oil belt tensioners are the same design. I am requesting for an expedited review of this information to get all manual transmissions added onto the recall list which I've been told by Ford that only you can add vehicles to that list.
