In June 2023 I got into a rear end accident with another vehicle. On my way to work. It was an accident where my brakes failed to stop my car. It was the weirdest accident, because I actually saw myself going into the back of the car in front of me but it was like my car failed to stop. I told Geico that my foot went through the break. And I have pictures of where my break pedal, broken half. The dealership had my car for close to two months and they never fixed it. They ignored my calls. I ended up going to the dealership and picking up my car. They gave excuse after excuse, and they never returned my calls. I took it to a local place to have my car fixed. The brake pedal is still half of what it used to be.

Hello, This is my first recall complaint so I will do my best the Dashboard light is on indicating low oil pressure along with the engine light as well. After researching this issue, with my 2018 Ford Eco, sport. I have also read a lots of complaints from online website including YouTube videos from customers and mechanic Indicates that this is an ongoing problem for this year, make and model of vehicle. This is a very expensive part to replace a long with the hours of labor Involve With this repair $1500-$2000 later. My mechanic also indicates this is an ongoing problem after just having a vehicle a few years, the belt will break and get stuck in the oil pump were it will have trouble getting pressure where this parts will have to be replace along with a few other small parts that goes with it and if you’re lucky like myself you’re car won’t catch on fire in the process or at least that is what mechanics are talking about online about this particular issue. Mechanics are also saying that this is a poor design on Fords behalf with the belt, breaking. I checked for a recall on this problem could not find one. I’m hoping that you will see that this issue needs to be considered a recall because $1500 to $2000 is a lot of money for someone like myself that is broke and has nothing to their name but one car made by Ford motor company and someone like myself that is living paycheck to paycheck.

The contact owns a 2018 Ford Ecosport. The contact stated that when the vehicle was shifted to drive or reverse, the vehicle started to jerk. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 - 55 MPH, the engine started to overheat with the "Low Engine Oil Pressure" message and the oil lamp warning light illuminated. The vehicle stalled and the contact coasted to the side of the road. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The failure recurred 3 times on that day. The contact became aware of white smoke coming from the rear of the vehicle near the exhaust pipe which dissipated after the vehicle was shut off. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact notified that vehicle had experienced engine failure; however, the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 93,000.

First hill start/stop assist stopped working back around may. Then the car started stalling and acting funny. Then in June it said low engine oil pressure. Took it for oil change then the engine blew on my way home on the highway. Had to get the engine fixed.

While driving, the oil warning light came on. I took the car to Firestone where they said the oil was very black, but it had been less than 3,000 miles since it was changed last. They changed the oil and the light went off, but after leaving, I made it barely a quarter of a mile when the engine light came on and the car began jerking. I was able to continue driving at a very low speed to pull over safely. After parking, the car shut down and would not start back up. I had to get the car towed to the nearest Ford dealership. They diagnosed the car with an engine failure due to excessive metal debris found in the oil pan as well as in the valve train assembly. Apparently this is a known issue with the EcoSport that I was unaware of until this incident occurred. The fact that Ford knew this was an issue and took no steps to inform me or other consumers is a huge problem. Not only that, I should not have been made to pay for any repairs due to this known issue. It is clear that they went forward with production on this car with faulty parts, including the windshield wiper pump. I can definitely understand why they stopped producing this vehicle and honestly they should all be off the road at this point. I tried to upload the repair invoice, but every time I press the “upload” button, it just disappears.

The contact owns a 2018 Ford EcoSport. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the vehicle shut off. The vehicle restarted but shut off again. The check engine and oil warning lights illuminated upon restarting the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who informed the contact that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V905000 (Engine and Engine Cooling). The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000.

Driving at highway speed when the check engine light came on and it went into « limp mode » slowing down to 30 mph. Was towed to the dealership. The tensioner belt timing belt oil pump and turbo charger all needed to be replaced. Total cost was around $7,000. Car had 67,292 miles, the warranty is 60,000 miles

Oil pump failure causing damage to motor and operation of vehicle. Currently unable to drive due to oil pump manufacturer defect causing vehicle to break down on June 2 2023.

Our 2018 Ford EcoSport with less then 50,000 miles had an engine failure while driving on the highway. This was due to the loss of oil pressure. We were out of the warranty by just a few weeks and Ford provided no help or support. We found out that this was a common problem with the engine on this style car but again there was zero support or help from Ford. The old pressure light came on while on a road trip with my wife. Once the light came on the car stopped accelerating so we pulled off the highway and took or car to the nearest Ford Dealership. They told us the engine was destroyed and needed to be replaced. Again we were offered zero support or answers from Ford and we had no choice but to pay over $7,000 to get a new engine in a year old car with less then 50,000 miles.

In June of 2023, engine oil light came on the dash stating low oil pressure, car began to shake really bad. Prior to thatI also was at a stop sign when vehicle shut off on me and had to coast into a gas station with a long line of traffic behind me. Called Ford and filed a complaint. I also called the local Ford dealer when my car didn't want to start anymore and they told me they wouldn't even touch and it would cost them yo to $19,000 for a new motor. Take in mind more than what the car is worth. I was out a vehicle for 7 months and have spent over $4000 to fix andits still not running right. I still lose power and can only 60mph on the highway and car is still shaking.

The oil pump belt tensioner locked up and caused an oil pump failure. The low oil pressure light was the only indication of a problem. I had the car toed to a Ford dealer. The extended warranty paid for most of the repair. I had to pay about $300 out of pocket and was without a vehicle for about three weeks due to having to fight with warranty company.

Just got an oil change on 5/4/23, on 5/23/23 the low oil pressure notification came on. The car almost immediately stalled out and cut itself off and will not cut back on. Had it towed to the company that performed my oil change and they informed me that it appears to be a problem related to the oil pump that I would need to speak to Ford about. I called Ford who informed me that there was no current recall for this type of issue but that I could have the car brought to them to be looked at. Looking online and it seems like it’s a major problem in this particular car, not sure why I should have to pay out of pocket for a known issue in these vehicles.

The contact owns a 2018 Ford Ecosport. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. The alert sounded indicating that the oil pressure low warning light and the check engine warning light were illuminated. Several unknown warning lights then illuminated.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided a case number and then transferred to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 121,000.

Engine was broked. Caused for the oil presure

I was driving on Hwy 146 at a high rate of speed and my engine died. I almost crashed with the car behind me. It was a very scary situation and I thank God no one was hurt. Traveling at that rate of speed it was a miracle. I got my car over to the side of the road and had it towed to the closest mechanic. My car just got paid off in Feb and only had 58,000 miles on it. I thought it would be something small. I received a ph call from the mechanic saying I need a new engine that the oil pump went out and threw stuff through the engine. I had it towed over to Mac Haik Ford in Pasadena for a second opinion and they said the same thing. I have read through this site and many many people have experienced the same problem. The dealership was well aware of the issue and so was Ford when I called them. Is it going to take someone to die to get this recalled. If anyone is interested in a class action feel free to call me [XXX]. There should not be this kind of problem with an issue that is so well know and Ford has not had to correct it.

I am writing to you as I have many concerns about my Ford EcoSport. As I commute to my job or drive to pick up errands, my car suddenly stops. I would make a complete stop and I forget to press the Start/Stop button to disable it from shutting off the engine. This has happened several times and I have taken in my car before and all of the Ford dealerships and service workers have no idea of what the problem is or why it is doing this so frequently. I try to start my car and for some reason, it is not starting properly. It continues to make the sounds of it possibly starting and then it shuts off completely. This is the only vehicle that I have to commute with and do my daily errands. I am very concerned about this vehicle and how it is not a reliable source for me to get from place to place. What if something happens then what? I am in search of another car, which is so sad because it is a 2018 year car, which should be able to hold up and last for another 10+ years. I am very concerned for others who are seeing the same problem as myself. I have a brand-new engine, oil parts, and battery. I have had several oil changes within the same month directly at Ford's service centers. I do not know what I should do next. I am an educator, I help many students with different exceptionalities. When parents need help, I am here for them and support them in any assistance that I can. I know I will always be there for my students. I want to know if YOU can be here for ME and the other 93 individuals who have made reports on our investment in having this troublesome car. What would you do if you had no answers to a looming problem without knowing the exact problem? I appreciate the time and consideration that this report can be made useful for anyone who can help in assisting us. Again, thank you very much. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

On my way to work as a travel nurse in another state from home, my car had an engine oil pressure light come on. It was the dark hours of the morning and I wasn't sure what it meant so I looked for the next place to stop safely. Not even five minutes later, I heard a large bang, almost like a gunfire sound, and large billows of smoke came from the front part of the car. My car handling went out and I lost complete control of the car and it started to skid. I gripped the steering wheel as a way to turn into my skid to steady the car until it came to a stop. Luckily there was no one on the road and I avoided a crash. After sending it to the Ford dealer, I found out a few weeks later that the car needed a total engine replacement which astounded me on a car that had less than 32,000 miles. My car is under warranty and I had just did an oil change and 21 point inspection two months before which was checked out good and it was not due for another couple hundred miles. I am now fighting with Ford to address this issue as I now know this is a common problem with the Ford 1.0L Ecoboost Engines. The car is getting the Engine replaced (a band-aid fix to a open, bleeding wound) but it doesn't help the fact that this is an unsafe vehicle and can happen again. When, not if, that happens, safety is a huge issue as I almost crashed the car the first time. Unfortunately, my state of Florida will not buy this car back as I have owned it for over the two years, however, I still owe money on it and have no choice to keep it until I can trade it in. Ford and the NHTSA needs to address the safety issues with this vehicle. The next person that this happens too (could be me again) might not be so lucky.

The approximate failure mileage was 66,000.

I bought my Ford Ecosport June 30th 2022 with 33k miles. On March 30th 2023 coolant leaked into the cylinder head resulting in a blown gasket. This was very unexpected as the car showed no signs of any issues at all up until the day of. I was driving the car to get an oil change and brakes checked. The car began to over heat and notify me that the engine was reducing power due to it's overheating. The car would not rise to 2 RPM and was extremely hard to make accelerate if I stopped at a redlight or stop sign. I just barely made it to the auto shop after breaking down in the middle of the busy road multiple times. I almost did not make it through a large intersection. The car has been inspected by the manufacturer and they have confirmed the issues. I am aware there was a recall where Ford identified a problem with a coolant pipe (referred to as the degas hose), on just under 45,000 Ford Focus 1.0-litre Ecoboost models sold in the UK between October 2011 and October 2013. My car has a 1L ecoboost engine with the exact same malfunction.

I have been waiting on the recall to be fixed for almost 2 years now. I've contacted Ford more times than I can remember, and they don't do anything other than say it's not available yet. I have had to replace the transmission, had many small repairs thinking it was something other than the recall. (I've paid over 2.5k in repairs and 1k in Ubers out of pocket) has 49000 miles, and I do not feel safe driving it at all. I will go somewhere that's within 5 miles, so I know I won't be stuck too far or on the highway, so it is causing MANY inconveniences as well as money for Uber etc. It is paid off and I'm going crazy trying to get this fixed. This is absolutely ridiculous, and I'm beyond FED UP! I keep looking to find a car similar that is NOT a Ford, but they're all too expensive and I don't think it's right I have to pay for FORD'S mistake!

Car started making a loud knocking noise and the check engine light came on. We had it towed to a mechanic and was told the oil pump belt was bad and caused the engine to go bad. We had to pay for a new engine and new oil pump belt. We were told that if this would have went out when he was on the freeway the car would have just stopped.

Ever since I purchased the vehicle, the screen that shows the system warnings and the speed that is right in front of the steering wheel goes out and turns completely dark and it will do this at weird moments. I haven’t noticed anything to cause this. I have replaced the battery and gone for an inspection and they can’t seem to figure out why it’s doing this other than the vehicle should be recalled. As this only happens every now and then but can be dangerous as if it goes out while driving home I supposed to know my speed or anything if I’m looking at the screen obviously I know that there is another speedometer on the right for speed, but either way it should not be happening. I am not sure if it would show if I went in for another inspection as I said it kind of does it on its own and at weird times. My safety is put at risk due to the fact that I cannot see what speed I’m going if that screen goes out other than looking at the speedometer that they give you in the car on the right side in front of the steering wheel. I wouldn’t be able to tell what kind of system warning I have because it pops up on that screen. There’s a lot of things that could happen where safety is concerned when that screen does go out. As I said before when I did go to a Ford dealership and got it inspected, they did notice that that happened but weren’t able to figure it out at the time and we were able to confirm it was not a battery issue as they did replace the battery in the vehicle. The vehicle has been inspected by a Ford dealership and again they could not figure out the reason and did not provide me with any answers other than it could be an electrical recall. There were no warning lamps or messages as that would be the screen that it would pop up on, and I can’t see it as it goes completely dark.

I was driving. My car sounded completely normal. All of the sudden my "low engine oil pressure" sensor came on. I pulled into a convenient store and ended up having the car towed into a mechanic shop. I was told that this engine has a flawed warning system in it. That the sensor doesn't come on until it's to late . (MY ENGINE IS GONE). My car has alittle over 73,000 miles on it. Ford will not fix my car they said that my extended warranty for the engine is 60,000. This is not good customer service . I am a disabled widow. I don't have any money to buy another car. This car left me on the side of the road with no warning. I have been a loyal ford customer I had always bought used cars before. But after my husband died I felt I needed to have something more dependable. This car is not that . Please help me with this problem.
