Summary
A class action lawsuit has been filed against Ford on behalf of owners and lessees of 2018-2021 Ford F-150 vehicles with the 5.0L engines due to excessive oil consumption.
The law firm of Sauder Schelkopf LLC, along with co-counsel, filed a lawsuit against Ford on behalf of owners and lessees of 2018-2021 Ford F-150 vehicles with the 5.0L Coyote engines. An investigation of these models revealed they are prone to excessive engine oil consumption. This defect causes vehicles to burn through engine oil at a faster rate and forces the owner or lessee to replenish the engine oil in their vehicle more frequently than normal. It may also result in increased emissions and reduced fuel efficiency. In some instances, when consumers brought their vehicles to a Ford dealership and complained of engine oil consumption, they have been told the issue is normal or that the owner is at fault and have been denied coverage for the repair under the new vehicle warranty.
