Problem overview

Some Ford Focus and Ford EcoSport owners report experiencing potential loss of engine oil pressure, which can lead to engine damage or failure. This issue affects models from 2016 to 2022 that are equipped with oil pump drive belts or drive belt tensioners that may fail, resulting in decreased oil pressure. To mitigate this risk, Ford dealerships are providing free replacements of the oil pump tensioner assembly and oil pump drive belt. It is crucial for owners of these vehicles to contact their nearest Ford dealership to have the necessary parts replaced to prevent any serious engine complications.
