The system of my car kept saying that low oil pressure and I was confused because I just got my car oil changed two weeks ago. So I went to Jiffy Lube to get my oil checked. They said it was full and that I had a mass flow light on and they stated that there was something wrong with the oil pressure due to the airflow or something, so then my car stopped on side of the road 2 minutes after I left jiffy lube. I almost got to into a wreck. Someone almost hit my car because my car was accelerating slow, so I had to pay a tow truck to take my car home then I have to pay for a mobile mechanic to come out to my house to see the issue. he said that it was , the vacuum pump, the engine oil pressure was low due to the airflow just like jiffy lube said and also the timing belt or chain tension needed to be replaced. Now I have been without a car for a week and every time I call the dealership they said that there is no parts in stock. I have also called the vehicle safety hotline 1-888-327-4236 and the number is out of service. So I don’t know what to do. I am without a car I don’t know how to rent a car because I don’t have the money for it because I just paid over $600 (Tow truck, oil service and diagnosis test). I don’t know if you guys can trade my car in for something else or give me a loaner car but something has to be done. You guys have to help me out some kind of way due to this recall. This is acceptable especially since I have to Uber my kids to and from school and daycare a

Unknown. About two weeks ago my car started periodically not starting. There were no indications of an issue. The car would operate as normal now the car check engine light is on. I have taken it to the dealership knowing about the recall they stated the issue is likely caused by the recall and they will not have the part to fix it until Q3 or Q4 of this year. I have already been stuck away from home 3 times and fear the car is going to shut down while driving. I do not have a nother form of transportation for work and getting my child to school. I can not wait until the end of the year for the vehicle to be fixed and don't want to drive it and risk others safety.

On December 07 2023 while driving off the interstate my vehicle abruptly stopped. It wouldn't accelerate at all and came out of no where. I had my kids in the car but thankfully I was close enough to their school that I was able to pull over and call a tow to take it to a dealership. That same day a service warning came up on the app that I did not see until after my car stalled on me saying there was a "Service Engine Soon Warning" On the app it stated: "The Engine Control system has detected that one of the engines internal components is not responding as expected. This can be caused by improper engine oil pressure or improperly operating engine timing components. The Engine Start/Stop feature (if equipped) may be disabled when this fault is present." The next step was: "Have your vehicle checked by an authorized dealer as soon as possible." It was 830 at night at this point I was not in the position to have it checked at this time but again it was towed to the dealership. At this time there had been ZERO recalls on this vehicle and I am diligent about getting my service done on it. Also I had no reason until this day to look up any issues with this vehicle but when I did I was furious to see that since September 2023 Ford has been made aware of this ongoing issue and had not issues a recall on my or other's vehicles. I am well within my 60K Powertrain warranty thankfully unlike others and my engine was replaced. I picked up my vehicle after repairs on January 03 2024. 1 Mo

We had to pay for an entire new motor (over $6000). We called Ford and went to a dealership and they admitted that this was a problem with this model but said they would not help as it had just gone out of warranty. Now, we received notice that there is a recall for this exact issue, (the newly replaced motor still has the same defect part.) Ford has refused to reimburse for the motor that we had to replace, stating that there is no fix yet for the defective part. I am still making payments on the car AND now paying for the replaced motor and labor.

The engine oil pump dive belt tensioner arm broke, and it caused damage to the engine, causing the engine to lose engine oil pressure and causing engine damage, almost causing an accident. There were no warning or messages prior to the failure it just happened, I was driving and it happened almost causing an accident. The dealership confirmed that this was the problem that belt broke causing motor damage but the letter of the recall had not yet been received and I cannot pay for that repair.

The recalled part, the "ENGINE OIL PUMP DRIVE BELT TENSIONER ARM" broke and ended up throwing metal throughout our 2020 ECOsport engine, making it undrivable. Ford refuses to cover the costs of the repair because they are claiming it's an " advanced notice, " since they "don't have a remedy" and expect us to wait until possibly the end of June for covered repairs or we can cover the costs ourselves($8k+ rental) even though they have sent out the recall notice. The "remedy" they don't have will not fix the engine, because the recalled part has already ruined the engine.

As I was driving the car started smoking and then caught on fire. Full flames for the front I had to rush out the car.

I do have appointment tomorrow with my dealer to see what they can do

Low engine oil pressure, oil light on, engine light on, ford claims that I can pay to have issue fixed, but they can not honor the recall because they don't have parts.

[XXX] while I was driving the low oil pressure warning came on. The car lost power, made terrible loud noise. I parked. The car was towed. It’s been sitting at James Ford Service, 100 Seymour St, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019 undriveable awaiting repair. It needs an engine which is not available. 7 months they have been telling me the parts are on backorder with no etd. My safety and others safety was at risk because the vehicle lost power along with braking power when the oil pump failed. FORD had known about this problem for quite some time. I am paying my car payment, insurance, DMV, car rental expenses and no car of my own to drive. I have cancer and had major surgery in November and now have weekly chemotherapy and other doctor appointments that I struggle to have transportation to get to! They have NOT been able to repair my car and they are still lying about the parts. I cannot go on like this and they need to compensate me immediately. The recall of January 4, 2024 further allows them to have more time to lie about the issue with these vehicles. They have known and haven’t been forthcoming whatsoever.

Sometimes when you're driving, the rear cargo door opens on its own. Sometimes it opens completely and stuff falls out. I took it to the dealership and they kept it 2 days. Since it didn't happen to them they won't do any repairs. I looked online and in the ecosport forums many people are having this problem

A couple year ago I got a random pop up saying low oil pressure I pulled over immediately and started hearing a noise. I called around and got told I should tow the car to a mechanic. Then, I was told I had to get a new engine, and that was not cheap. I have also had the problem where every time I get into the car the screen turns off and says “turning off to save battery” sometimes the screen turns back on and sometimes it stays off not allowing me to see navigation. Plus when this happens it sometimes turns my whole dash and air conditioning off, and I am unable to use the reverse camera. Now there was a recent recall on my vehicle for the low oil pressure warning. But I have also had multiple problems with the auto start stop function where I have to manually turn it off every time I get into the car, the reasoning is because multiple times on the road the car would not start and I would have to put the car in park and restart the car but on hills it really has a problem starting.

I was on a ramp going from one highway to another when the engine oil pressure warning came up. Within seconds after the engine started to reduce speed and the engine light came on. The Wrench light came on and the engine continued to reduce speed. I had to put my hazard lights on and try to slowly get it to the dealership that was luckily only a couple exits away. I had my 3-year-old in the back seat. The dealership reports the whole engine needs to be replaced. We are down one vehicle and have to wait for a new engine. I no longer feel safe in this vehicle and researched the car to see if others have experienced this. I just saw that there is a known engine issue now and feel my fairly new car now is worthless. Who would buy a vehicle that has a known engine issue that can put your family's safety at risk with no known repair yet. The vehicle has only over 40,000 miles on it.
