Oil Pump Recall Second Failure: Overheating

Hi guys I have a Ford Focus 2018 SE and I had a oil pump failure and an engine replacement by Ford themselves at 85k

They said everything would be fine- and it was fine for 2k miles.

Just hours ago- at 87k miles- I suddenly lost power at a 10MPH slow drive.

I was careful and I am sure the engine heat was normal.

Turnt it off- ran it back- all was fine. Engine heat as well.

Drove 5 mins and at around 40 mph speed accelerating- engine went weak.

Pullover- overheating - as a red exclamation and the engine check came on. I parked and waited. The fan cooled off and I waited for 20 mins.

Ran it. The engine light is on. It overheats very fast so cant drive it.

I will call the dealership first thing and try to get it sorted out but..

Anyone experienced this? Any suggestions?

I feel so awful..
