My daughter has informed me that the oil pressure light has come on and off and the engine starts shaking . I know the current recall they have out has to do with the oil pressure. I called Ford and explained to them what was going on and was told to call a dealership to make an appointment they said I would have to wait to get it in and they already have one and can’t get parts to repair it yet. I was told by Ford and the dealer ship that there is nothing stating she can’t drive it but if possible they don’t recommend it. So I am not sure what she should do because she relies on this vehicle every day. Being it’s a major recall should Ford have to provide a rental car until it’s looked at.
