Fuel Pump Module Recall

[JOE_SHO]

Is this part still on backorder? When I bought mine, they said I would get an update as to when I need to bring in my car for this recall.

My Flex is getting this done today.  I believe the dealers are now getting a good supply of modules so I would give your dealer a call.

X2 most dealers should have them in stock AFAIK and would simply call any Ford dealer and request an appt and mention safety recall 16S31 FDM performed asap.  Z

I got paranoid when I got the notice and the dealer wasn't making appointments yet so I bought one from an online dealer for around $50 just to have on hand (just in case). I changed it myself, took less than 3 minutes. When I finally got the recall appointment notice, I called the Ford customer number on it and they said if I go have it verified at the dealer, they would reimburse me. We'll see how that goes.

I called my dealer and they ordered one. Should be available next week to take my car in for it.

The service adviser also has a SHO and told me the pump got rid of his morning surge.  I have the exact same problem.  I'm excited to have it fixed!!

That's interesting,but would also mention SSM 44315 2013 Model Year Explorer, Taurus, MKS, Flex, MKT, Fusion, MKZ, and Police Interceptor Utility and Sedan Vehicles may exhibit a fuel odor or hesitation.
Some 2013 Model Year Explorer, Taurus, MKS, Flex, MKT, Fusion, MKZ, and Police Interceptor Utility and Sedan Vehicles may exhibit a fuel odor, slow fill, or hesitation/stumble while driving and may or may not have one or more of the following codes present P0454, P0455, p0456, p0457, p0451, p0459 after Field Service Action 13S04 has been completed. This may be due to the fuel vapor line not being properly connected (fully seated) to the underside of the Fuel Delivery Module (FDM) which may lead to the carbon canister becoming saturated with liquid fuel.If fuel is found in the carbon canister and FSA13s04 has been completed on the vehicle, please inspect the vapor line connection to the FDM in addition to the normal diagnostics called out in the appropriate workshop manual.  Z

I had the recall done in Dec/ 16, and the computer upgraded to new tune for hesitation.  They changed my valadation code and therefore needed my tuner to redo my 3 tunes. 87 3bar, 91 3bar, 93 3bar.
My tuner Said it would be 150 bucks to redo my tunes, so be aware of that. I ended up only getting the 93 3 bar replaced, i am on a budget/disabled.
However with the recalled module replaced, Ford new base tune and my new 93 3bar the car is much quicker, more thrust, more responsive and more smooth, it is even significantly quieter. I then changed oil to Pennz oil Platinum and all the clicks in motor are now gone and smoother yet. At idle you cannot tell it is running and is so responsive and quick now. I am really happy but wish I had all my tunes.

Why did you have to pay 150 to redo the tunes? Ford said that?

Ford charged 80 for the TSP hesitation retune of pcm. Said they would use towards the 100 deductible for warranty work, for replacing the PTU for a bad whining issue. My tuner said he would now charge 150 to re do the three custom tunes I purchased from him 6 months before because of new strategy code. I only have the 93 3bar now on top of the ford's TSP redo of the PCM

So you got an updated strategy from Ford?

Damn that's unfortunate, it takes about 90 seconds per tune to create a new tune from an old tune.

[SHOdded]

Does this tuner charge for every change to your setup that needs a tune revision?  That's a throwback to the dark ages.  Tuners today only charge extra for major mods, and a strategy code/PCM calibration update is not one of them.

[StealBlueSho]

If this guy is charging you every time there is a change, you already have a SCT device, next time I would ping AJPTurbo..... his tunes are fantastic and doesn't charge for revisions. His tune cost as much as your revisions... same with Unleashed and BCB I believe.

Math on that works out to $6,000/hr if it's steady work... looks like I need to order the PRP and start learning!!! ROI on that is insane!

Your tuner is either a thief or a hack, either way I wouldn't let him tune my leaf blower.
