Greetings everyone,
Just took delivery of a 2013 Explorer Limited Tuxedo Black with 302A and dual moonroofs last week. It's is indeed such a fantastic car. Stil can't get enough of playing with all the features. I'm from the Philippines and you guys won't imagine how difficult it is to get your hands on an Explorer. Not only do we pay full retail price (including our high taxes), the dealers force buyers to pay ridiculous rates for their in-house insurance, tint and car registration. Cost $67,000 overall. But that's another story. lol
On my way home from the dealer with my brand new Ex, it stalled on an overpass. A "low oil pressure" warning popped up on the left LCD screen and suddenly the engine would not accelerate. The brakes, steering, A/C, lights all worked. Luckily I was on a downward slope so I just coasted down to the middle of the highway, put my hazards on and called up my car sales agent. I restarted the engine and it worked as if nothing went wrong.
Ford took my car and gave a "thorough" inspection and did not find any problems and just gave it back. I'm definitely not satisfied with their response. I would've preferred if they found a problem so they can actually fix it. Do they expect me to just keep driving until it stalls again? Hope the next time it happens there will be no accident.
Anyone have experience with engine stalling accompanied by a low oil pressure warning? I'd really appreciate any insights or advice. Thanks!
