Ford Mustang: Engine
Affects Ford Mustang · 2016–2017 — about 941 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles equipped with 5.2 litre V8 engines, the engine oil cooler tube assembly may have insufficient crimps. This could lead to a hose separating, which would cause an oil leak. The sudden loss of engine oil could result in an engine failure causing a loss of motive power, and an oil leak, in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Both of these conditions could increase the risk of injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the engine oil cooler tube assembly.
