Low engine oil pressure light came on and engine clanking noises occurred while I was traveling on the interstate. I immediately pulled the vehicle over to a safe location. Vehicle was towed to local Ford Dealership Service Center.

On the evening of 12/20/2023 suddenly the loss of engine oil pressure with an illuminated oil pressure warning lamp came on and the engine started knocking loudly. Then as we pulled out of traffic into a parking lot spot it died and would not restart. We were in heavy traffic and if we were not able to exit as quickly as we did our family would have been stranded and blocking in the heavy traffic. Was able to start it after it cooled but the engine continued to knock and within 1 minute the oil pressure warning lamp came on. We have not taken it to a repair shop as it is at 61k miles. I had to have it towed home and are currently in a out of pocket rental. It will have to be towed for any type of service.
