“Noticed sluggishness on interstate and exited at the first available exit that was approximately 1 mile away. When exiting interstate and coming to a complete stop at the stop sign, it died and would not start. It was blocking the single turning lane. It was turning over very well but seemed to be lacking fuel maybe. Had it towed to local mechanic shop. No word back from them yet. Just had the fuel pump replaced at my expense about 4 months ago. I know there was a recall on the fuel pump before we bought it. …”
NHTSA complaint #11257895, filed 2019-09, 52,000 miles“I heard about a recall of certain Lincoln MKT's with the ecoboost engine back in august. There was mention that there was a problem with the fuel injector and that the car could potentially stall. I promptly made an appointment to take my car into the dealership. When there, they told me they didn't have the parts and had no idea what to even order; that I should wait for a notice from ford/Lincoln. I did receive a letter a couple weeks ago but it said to wait until the dealership contacts me that they have parts or contact them if my car shows symptoms , whichever occurs first. …”
