2018 Ford Ecosport complaints

1. The window intermittently and without warning will freeze, or decided not to go up or down. I'm assuming it's electrical, but do not know for sure. 2. I live in a city where I need to be able to have an operating window. It's not safe to have a window stuck open, as there are carjackings, robberies and various other safety hazards. 3. I first happened in 2018 or 2019 and I drove it to the closest dealership which is about 8 miles (city) from where I live. When I arrived to show the service person, it decided to start working again, so they didn't do an intake and sent me on my way. This happened 2 more times, where I started to make my way to have it looked at and it began working again. I've given up and do not have unlimited finances to have every glitch with this vehicle diagnosed. They charge just to look at it. 4. I don't know 5. There is no warning at all, or pattern to triggers. It happens anywhere between 12 and 24 times a year.

I was involved in a front end collision [XXX] that caused my vehicle to be totaled and me to be transported to the hospital via an ambulance. I purchased the vehicle with the understanding that it had numerous safety features including airbags throughout. During this accident my impact completely crumpled my engine compartment and left portions of my engine were left lying around. The only airbag to deploy was the skirt one below the steering wheel column. The curtain one over my driver door and the steering wheel one did not deploy. I sustained a concussion, post concussion syndrome, chest wall injury, hematoma and abrasions to my left arm and both legs. The bruises sustained to my abdomen make it look like I am still wearing my seatbelt. The post concussion syndrome has caused me memory loss for the entire day, before and after the accident other than a moment here or there. I cannot remember the accident or what led up to it. I continue to have headaches and nausea. I am really just looking for answers on why my other airbags did not deploy. Ford has declined to inspect the airbags unless I agree to have the vehicle brought to one of their inspection locations.

My partner lost acceleration on the highway, abruptly and without warning. We took the while to a Ford dealership for diagnostics. They found that the turbocharger had come loose and was grinding against the engine. Metal infiltrated into the oil, large pieces settled in the oil pan. The dealership says the vehicle needs a new engine and turbocharger, wants us to pay $8,100 for it. The dealership denies the issue is related to the active recall and ongoing class-action lawsuit, even though the circumstances align perfectly down to the mileage range in which this issue is expected to occur.

My mother was driving my car when it randomly had displayed the check engine light and low oil pressure light. My mother immediately stopped driving it and we had it towed to my mechanic. My manic said the Engine is very noise, but oil is full. Said the wet belt timing system and the oil pump are inside the crankcase and need to be inspected, but to avoid breakage extensive testing needs to be done, but before that can happen the oil pan must be removed. After speaking with a master tech at Ford he let her know it will need an engine and possible turbo replacement, and this is a common issue in these vehicles.

Component failure: LUG NUTS. Unable to remove the WHEEL because of SWOLLEN lug nuts. This is a massive safety issue.

My engine light came on in September 2024. I took it to the Ford dealership and they told me it was my purge valve.

I took it to the Ford dealership and they said the valve was loose and they fixed it. My engine light was off when they gave me my vehicle back. 2 fays layer my engine light came back on. While driving on I-45 my car shut off and stalled. I talked with the Ford corporate office and they informed me about my car's safety recall and that they will not have the parts until next year.

I own a 2018 Ford EcoSport, and I’ve been experiencing an issue with the swing gate. While driving, I’ll randomly get a notification that the gate is ajar, even though I haven’t opened it. If the vehicle is locked, the gate stays shut, but if it’s unlocked, the swing gate will sometimes open while I’m on the road. This issue happens more often when I’m driving on bumpy or uneven surfaces. It’s become a frequent problem, and I’m concerned about the safety risk.

Been dealing with the issue for almost a year and and a half. Went to the dealer and had to pay out of pocket for a temporary fix that they claimed was a lose hose clamp. After receiving a second letter stating to take it back to the dealer a second time and presented it and how an intern repair is available due to my car now leaking and burning oil and the service manager said they could not do anything and would not even look at my car and told me I had to wait the recalled parts are available although ford has offered an interm repair is allowed. This has been a headache for almost two years and I have contacted Ford telling me to take my vehicle in. Now I am at severe risk of my engine blowing up due to defective oil pump.
