so in the past 6 months my truck has been in the shop for 3.5 months. Last september it started doing this thing where right when you started it and went to take off it would die and flash low oil pressure and then you start it again and it would be fine. Did that for about a month and never got around to bringing it to the shop. well then it died out while i was driving and we got it to the shop where it stayed for 2 months and eventually they put a new engine. So i get it back and about 2 weeks after i get it back it starts doing what it had been doing. well the shop was full for 2 weeks and we waited about a month and the motor blew again. So it goes back in the shop for a month and they change the motor again. got it back last tuesday and friday it was running like **** and doing the same thing once again. Brought it to the shop and my dad followed me to picke up and he said black smoke was coming out the exahst. Anyone have this issue. before? I need my truck and it seems like they cant fix the issue.

Instead of a new engine, they should give you a different truck.

i was hoping the lemon law would do that but it says a year after purchase and its been over a year

Lets see some pictures of your truck and the motor.

Knowing Ford, they would never just replace a motor for stalling, let alone 3. Surly they had to tell you why there replacing it, not just here's a new motor. Somethings fishy here...

first was metal shavings in the cylinders or whatever and last time it was a hole in a piston, this time we dont know yet.

Maybe its just this year model but the mechanics at my local ford dealership love these trucks. Job security they say.
