Low pressure fuel pump recall

[escossie]

Had this in the post today - doesn't look like they have a remedy yet.

Unfortunately, the only remedy is to replace it yourself with a better pump.

No telling when Ford will come up with one.

You're probably right - I see you're in the US - I'm in the UK and I see there is no fix for it your side of the pond yet.

I'm happy to wait as mine is running perfectly at the moment - long may it continue

The only downside is there may not be a warning when the pump goes. That happened to me and it resulted in a $200 tow bill.

I should add that the pump replacement is a very simple job. It takes about 30-45 min. to do.​

It's not a daily driver for me - only just over 7000 miles on a 2022 so hopefully should be ok - although now I've said that......

Same here. Mine failed at 7K miles. I was on E85 at the time, but I’m not sure whether that was/wasn’t the cause of the failure. My line also ruptured.

I believe there is a recall out there for the EcoBoost on the line rupture, but nothing on the GT that I know of, although I can see the issue carrying over to a GT.

Something to look forward to

Google Alpine A110 fuel pump failures - sounds very much like the same problem but it was the control systems causing the pump to fail rather than a faulty pump per se.

Yeah i had a quick read and does sound similar - hopefully they will come up with a fix soon as it has been a known problem in the US since July. It's a shame its not just a Mustang problem because with the Explorer's and Bronco's that has got to be a large number of pumps/modules to come up with.
