Fuel Pump Module Recall

Yup...I skipped page 2. Lazy.
Seems strange to me that they are going to notify customers Sept 12, but won't have the complete dealer bulletin until Nov 14. I suspect that dealers are going to get barraged with phone calls, but not have any answers for two whole months.
This might be a recall that is best done during the later stages once the procedure and part is better known.

I thought i might add this to the MIX. Z http://www.carcomplaints.com/news/2016/ford-recalls-113000-vehicles-2-recalls.shtml August 25, 2016 — Ford says more than 113,000 vehicles are recalled in TWO RECALLS involving problems ranging from engines that stall to windows that can close with too much force and might want to add the Escape to the mix. ..... due stay Tuned.

Kevin They charged you Double the price for the part plus install hopefully they will reimburse you the same amount,HA.

Fingers crossed....
Just took the SHO in (to correct a leak in the rear diff they serviced not even a month ago) and they snuck this into the invoice. Asked about it when i was reading and was informed they don't have the parts yet as well. Right before i left i pulled the codes and got P008B, hopefully this will make sure it gets fixed and not just "inspected" 
I think for the time being it will be beneficial to always try to keep your tank FULL and to Keep the gas tank at least 1/4 full. This much gasoline, a 1/4 tank, keeps the fuel pump surrounded by gasoline, which helps keep the fuel pump cool.Running the tank less than 1/4 tank depletes this “coolant” and allows the fuel pump to run hotter. It is this heat from the pump, in addition to the ambient heat, that literally distills the gasoline in the tank. This precipitates out the solids and the sludges, which plugs the fuel pump filter. Having at least 1/4 tank of gas in the tank reduces all of these risks until a resolution to this recall is resolved. Z
[UPDATE] I just came back from Ford and was able to obtain the following latest updates on the recall,stay tuned. Z
