The engine oil light came on in my car. It went off and then came back on. I eventually could not drive. I lost all oil pressure. I see from online research that the car has a history of the oil pump sensor arm fracturing. I was traveling and away from home when it happened. My car has been in Oneonta Ford now for approximately 6 weeks. They keep giving me different reasons why they can't fix the car but Ford has been sued many times for this issue and failing to fix it and notify drivers about the defect.

Oil pump has failed due to recall. There is supposed to be an interim fix if your oil pump fails but Ford is telling me there is nothing they can do until Spring of next year. Oil Pressure Low light has came on so I stopped driving the vehicle. I do not want to cause further damage. My safety is at risk because I am expected to operate a vehicle with the Low Oil Pressure light on. This is not safe
