Low pressure fuel pump failure - recall

[Razorbak86]

I'm a little more than a 1/3 of the miles in on my second LPFP (8K) to the miles my first LPFP failed (23K). I'm just hoping the fix comes before LPFP #2 calls it a career and retires.

My low pressure fuel pump failed at 2,490 miles on the odometer. My replacement is still going strong at 30,000+ miles.

Has that been your only issue? At less than 2500 miles, I bet you were thinking, "Oh boy...this is going to be an interesting ownership experience."

Mine has been on a flat bed twice. Once for the LPFP and once for hungry lil' vermin eating my throttle wiring harness. I don't blame Ford for the vermin actions, though they could have used a ghost pepper flavored wire insulation.

My SYNC 4 Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) also died and had to be replaced. The fuel pump and APIM were both covered under warranty, and the roadside assistance after the fuel pump failure was also covered under the warranty.

My first two gen 6's had accidents not of my making, but my involvement in. I am driving paranoid in my 3rd Gen 6 now. Hoping, like the low pressure pump fixes, my luck holds!

Given how many times this has been pushed out at this point, I'm not sure I even want to do the recall until it's been out for at least a few months and other people have been the guinea pigs.

Whatever they're working on is only a partial remedy at this point anyway.

A partial fix that seems to be having some issues getting to maturity. My confidence is soaring! I was kind of waiting on this one to get my other 5 recalls resolved (they fixed #7 for the screen black out with an OTA)
Our '24 doesn't have the recall. Is there anything different in the components or how the fuel lines are routed or something?....or can we expect a future recall for the '24?

It doesn't make sense to me. Isn't the ultimate failure source too small a part in the pump that clogs easily. How would software even remedy that?

I'll be a guinea pig on it. B is about to be a secondary vehicle so I have backup if it's a shitty repair

lol I honestly don’t know. I kind of thought the same thing and was confused when the recall said “waiting on software development”
I thought it was simply going to be a pump replacement
