Third time having the fuel pump replaced . pump fails every 20-30k miles. car will stop running while driving on roadways, unable to restart vehicle. had to pull over to side of road and wait for tow. 1st time 36,000 miles 2nd 53,000, 3rd 90,000. all repairs were performed by ford service center
Now replacing the fuel modual sensor for the 3rd time in 5yrs. this is a known issue for other ford vehicles. car will not start and needs to be towed each time. front passenger door sensor doesn't work and interior light remains on until vehicle reaches 10mph. interior light will not turn off and battery drains.
I tried starting the car it would start then sputter out very shortly after, after having this occur 3 times the car would not turn over at all and had to get a tow. i had it towed to the dealership, it sat for a day the dealership stated the car started up and they were able to move the car without an issue. they priced the work at $700+ to be completed. the recall number 16v621000 (or 16s31) did not show though it is the same exact issue he described.
Driving down the road and out of nowhere my vehicle started stalling as if vehicle had no gas. gas tank was full and vehicle showed me a wrench sign as i was looking at my dashboard
I had problems with both the power steering and the fuel deliver on my flex. in both cases i found recall notices that are exactly the same as noted in the recalls. in the case of the power steering the dealer replaced the module for free because it was still under warranty but said my vehicle was not part of the recall. now i'm having problems with the fuel delivery exactly as described in the recall but the dealer still says my particular vehicle is not part of the recall. i believe there are more vehicles than originally determined that are having problems. the dealer in this case is village ford, 23535 michigan, dearborn, mi. 48124. the car had been sitting while i was working (9 hours) and would crank but not start.
Fuel pump failure at 90,000 miles. exact issue was recalled on some models in the same year, just not my vin. pump is in high demand, prices are thus higher than usual and also unavailable thru anyone but ford directly. my car was, thankfully, in the driveway when failure occurred and was towed to local shop.
The engine stalls without warning while driving, even on highway or intersection or filling gas and the vehicle don't restart right away ' engine lights misfire. and engine throttle body sensors/oxygen sensors broke. have fixed without resolve to issues (recurrent). on multiple dates and multiple times a day.
While on the highway my car just shut down. 70 mile a hour traffic and it just dies. i get it off the road and have it towedvto a mechanic who tells me that it is the fuel relay sensor. we replace that and the car runs fine for about 4 weeks. while on the highway headed to take my kids to schoo it just dies in the middle of traffic. once again i call for a tow truck and take it to the mechanics and once again he puts a new fuel pump relay sensor on. a gain it worked fine for about 4 weeks and quit again. ford told me that my car had a recall on the fuel pump and that it was probaly acting up again. i asked if i could bring it in to be fixed and they quoted me some outrageous price. they said the recall had already been fixed on my car. well if it had been fixed then i wouldnt be put in these dangerous situation s and afraid to drive my car for fear of getting rammed by a semi when my fuel pump just out of the blue decides to ...
Failure of engine to start/run due to a faulty fuel pump control module. current ford safety recall #16s31 (nhtsa #16v621) is limited only to ford/lincoln vehicles equipped with the ecoboost turbocharged engine. the faulty component on my normally aspirated engine, fuel pump control module #aa8z-9d370-b, is the same component being replaced on vehicles affected by the #16v621 nhtsa safety recall. to avoid engines shutting off at speed or not starting, it appears that the recall will need to be expanded to include normally aspirated engines as well. we were fortunate because our vehicle failed sitting in our driveway, not at 75 mph on the highway. my wife's concern is what would have happened to her and our four grandchildren if this failure had taken place on the interstate in busy traffic at 75 mph. why is the same component that is failing on ecoboost turbocharged engines being covered by ford safety recall #16s31 not being recalled on similar vehicles equipped normally aspirated engines using the identical component? failure of the component has the same effect of an engine that cuts off at speed or will not start. your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated. the safety of the owners ...
My 2013 ford flex was repaired at malloy ford in charlottesville, va. the car was parked and failed to start, so i had it towed to the local ford dealership. the repairs consisted of replacing the fuel pump drive module and the fuel pump. my ford flex has 69k miles and is out of warranty. i had the vehicle towed to the local ford dealership. the dealer informed me that the repairs were not covered by any recall notices. according to the nhtsa website, these repairs should be covered by ford motor company. both of these items ' the fuel pump module and pump ' are listed as: 1) fuel pump malfunction, nhtsa campaign number: 16v621000 manufacturer ford motor company components fuel system, gasoline. ford's number for this recall is 16s31. 2) fuel delivery module may crack and leak nhtsa campaign number: 15v812000 components fuel system, gasoline ford's number for this recall is 13s04-s1. the first part of my complaint is that ford does not recognize either of these two recalls on its own website, or in the automated phone dial-in system that i used to reach customer ...
Car would not start. towed to garage. fuel pump driver and fuel pump bad and melted.
While driving, the car just stops. no power, cannot turn wheel, gas nor brake pedal works. have to restart by pushing ignition button. this has happened a few times already and is a major safety issue.
This is the 3rd time this has happened in the past month. after driving the car to a location, turning the car off then returning to the car to leave, the engine will turn over, but will not fire. the indicators show the car running, i.e. dash lights on even after getting out of the car. the smell of gasoline is present.
Car just dies in the middle of driving and the steering systemlocks up. there has been a known recall for a fuel control module on ford flex, there is also known fuel pump problems with ford makes and models. i have lost power twice. had at the mechanic last month. could not get it to die for an entire week in the shop. now it is dead in a parking lot again.
Id number 16v621000 isn't associated with my ford flex 2013 even thought the fuel module failed while driving and left us stranded
