Leaking oil pan on a brand new F150

Asked by GuruQ3SBR Nov 27, 2019 at 07:15 AM about the 2017 Ford F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4WD

Question type: General

I bought a brand new 2017 F150 to avoid problems and
hassles. On my first oil change service, I found out that I
almost run out of oil due to leak. I am at 48,000km now and
they are still fixing it everytime. What should I do?

Do you know it is a leak and not the oil consumption problem that the 5.0 engine has? You should check your oil level every time you fill up. If you don't you may destroy your engine.

If you car is at the dealership for repair ask to be placed on an oil consumption test because, as FOR said, there are problems with the 5.0 engine. Two things. If the problem was a simple leak, I suspect it would have been fixed the first time you brought it in. And, you'd see oil spots on your driveway.

My wife likes here 2013 4 cylinder Terrain serviced at the dealership for oil changes, etc, that is the way she is and it's OK. The car has about 60,000 miles on it and the oil is changed every 3000 miles at the dealership. Recently we were going out town using her car so I decided to check the oil before leaving, It wasn't measuring on the dipstick. Required over two quarts to fill. Upon checking on the net, I learned there was a suit settlement involving the engine due to excessive oil consumption. The car is not undergoing it's first 1000 mile test. But here is the rub. Never did the service department inform us the car was using oil. Remember, if you don't ask, you don't get.

Thank you for all your inputs. I will bring it to the dealer next week for another oil pan service.
