Description of the problem | On monday march 10, 2014 i started the my 2012 ford explorer and drove it to work approximately 2 miles and shut it off, after 25 minutes i returned to the vehicle and attempted to start it. The vehicle started and then immediately shut off and said low oil pressure, i proceeded to remove the key and open the hood. I checked the oil and all was within range, no issue immediately noted, i closed the hood and attempted to restart the car. Upon the attempted restart the car took a substantial amount of time to finally turn over, i immediately shut the car off and figured it needed to refresh itself and waited a moment. After restarting on the third try i then attempted to drive it all indicators had turned off. While driving the vehicle it refused to accelerate over 35mph, i immediately reported the issue to ford and the vehicle had to be towed to cavalier ford in greenbrier, va. |
