So, my check engine light started blinking and now it won't crank. 2.7 with 7k miles. Waiting on roadside assistance in the middle of a winter storm.

What’s your engine build date could be blown engine most people with a blown engine did not even hear as much as a bang when it went any fluids on the ground

Sucks to be stranded, I never leave home without AAA on my phone. Pop the hood, take picture of your engine build date, seems on higher end of miles to shit the bed but you may just be #39 with a screwed engine (if so add yourself to the thread and list)

I've had it since October.

That don’t tell us much did you take delivery in oct if your engine build date falls in between June threw august it’s prob a blown engine sucks wish ford motor company would speak up about this. If it’s the engine hopefully they get you back on the road quick but the going wait time seems to be at least a month for replacement

Hi there. Please send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location. I'd like to look into this concern.

Gah, I'd feel like we were all much better heard if Ford's responses in threads weren't always canned. I know it's direction from legal, but gah.

It's 15 degress and I've been waiting with no heat for two hours. I'll take a pic later.

Jon
I ran a tow company. Just call a local tow company and pay for the tow, get reimbursed by ford.
They should and probably will
We didn’t tow for car clubs. The car clubs pay nothing

for instance it was 95 to tow a car, minimum during working hours

car clubs want to pay $40

so the car company calls around and gets some shady tow company to agree and you will sit for HOURS

Or we could be there in 20-30 minutes most times and you would be on your way

I’ll pay the tow upfront and never wait.

Already tried that. Our roads are covered in ice. They're all busy.
