-??Oil pump failed to send oil to the engine causing the brakes to go out. While trying to pull out into traffic, the engine made a pop sound, and lost the ability to accelerate. Engine and oil light turned on, was then unable to accelerate past 20mph and engine sounded horrible. -?? Our mechanic looked at the car and said the oil vacuum pump was obliterated inside the engine. He replaced the vacuum pump and said that the timing belt is inside the engine which is causing all the issues. -?? No warning lamps or messages appeared before this. Had just had an oil change a month before and there were no issues.

The vehicle turned off as we were driving down the road at 2pm on Friday 1/12. We called two different Ford dealahips to get the car serviced. Both made an appt for the following week but neither told us not to drive the car. Later that day if happened again and the brakes would not work to stop the car so another vehicle was hit and sup sequentaly totaled my vehicle.
