Fuel Module Recall for the 2013

SD13SHO · August 08, 2013, 11:32:12 AM

I received my recall letter a week ago, and went into my dealer. They inspected it, did not find any leaks, but noted it was the wrong part. They called yesterday and the part is in, and will be installed next week.

Just wanted to let folks know, the parts are available. Initially I was told maybe September.

The wrong part! Holy smokes. That's crazy!

Yeah, I got it. Going to go in for an oil change/tire rotation in the next week so will have them do the recall if need be.

If your car was built after Feb of this year, your not affected by the recall. I took my car in for a fuel sending unit issue (mine failed) and they checked it while it was in and it didn't need the recall.

Having this done when my dealer can get the parts...apparently a shortage right now.

Earliest available here was Sept 9th. They order them for the car

Yep, still waiting for the call that the part is in.

They have ordered my part, but said the tank has to come out and to bring the car with as least amount of gas possible in the tank. They said 2.5-3 hour job. Is this similiar information of what you guys are hearing??

I was told a day to day and half.

Does the back seat have to come out, go through the trunk, or everything from underneath?

The letter from Ford states, "The time needed for this repair is less than one-half day. However, due to service scheduling requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a longer period of time."

I scheduled mine in July when I got the letter, dropped it off monday this week and was told no parts in yet they will call when ready. I needed an oil change and inspection anyway.

Well, I took her in for the appointment at 0730 this morning. I was called at 1145 and told the car was finished. Work order indicates replacement of fuel pump, sending unit and gasket, as instructed in recall notice. Hope this gives everyone an idea of the time actually required to do the job.

My 2013 is sitting a Ford right now getting the fuel pump recall addressed. The star technician left for the day to take care of his kids school stuff leaving the shop short handed. Hopefully it will be finished tomorrow.

I received a letter from Ford Canada 2 days ago. Call my dealer yesterday and the tech told me he need to inspect the car first to know if they need to replace... I don't agree with him, they should just do the job and send the bill to FMC. To be continue.
