The issues were initially repaired by the \"dealer\" as it was under either factory or extended warranty. The most note worthy issues, which is the purpose of my correspondence as it potentially could lead to a vehicle fire, is the leakage of oil from the oil pan (second time being repaired) and the driver's side valve cover (first time). The issues are reportedly caused, says Ford, due to faulty material used in the gasket of the oil pan and poor material used in the manufacturing of the valve cover (leading to cracking and subsequent oil leakage). These issues, if not repaired at great cost, can result in a vehicle fire.  2) No fire has been experienced nor has the vehicle been examined by an independent mechanic.  3) The only warning I had of a mechanical problem with the engine, again, was oil droplets on my driveway. There was no indication of the faulty driver's side engine valve cover until the Ford mechanic brought it to my attention just this week. It is unknown how long the valve cover has been leaky oil on the top of the engine.   4) My vehicle is currently at the Ford dealership as the necessary repairs at great expense are being conducted.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2018","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"F-150","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
