tamugrad2013 Posted December 24, 2015 Report Share Posted December 24, 2015 You know i have a 2012 Ecoboost and the fuel pump failed. Luckily it was under warranty, and don't have to dig up paperwork, I wonder if more than just 2014's are really affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
