2018 Ford Ecosport

My car first came on with a check engine light at 53,000 miles. Got it coded that the car prompted and it was reading P015B which indicates bank 1 sensor 1 of O2 sensors experiencing a lean to rich response issue. I scheduled an appointment with a mechanic to have it looked at. It drove fine for 24 hours. The next day my car started to run rough and the oil light came on as well with an error message reporting low oil pressure. I recently got an oil change done a week prior. I did take the car back to where I got the oil change. The company did not find any issues with the oil change but proceeded to change it anyway again. They advised me at that point to not drive the car till diagnosed at a dealership. At this point I have had the car towed to a local dealership. I am told over the phone that it may be due to a know issue with my car of a bad oil pump and could risk blowing the engine. I am awaiting further diagnosis after the holidays.

Car went into limp mode then shut off while driving. Towed to mechanic, who tried to fix the codes that popped up. After fixing the codes, still didn’t turn on. Towed it to ford, it’s still there. They have told me it’s the oil pump and that it fell off. They have also said it just happens with these cars. They are waiting on one last test to confirm, but have told me I need a new engine, and there was nothing I could do to prevent this, that I was lucky to get to 72k miles, as other cars oil pumps fell off at 50k.

I have a 2018 Ford economy sport. I frequently took good care of this car . I changed the oil regularly. A out 3 weeks ago I was driving my car and the oil pressure light appeared on my car after I just got it fixed. Shortly thereafter the engine went out and left me stranded with no car . I had to come up with $7000 to replace install new engine. I tried to get warranty dept with Ford to fix my car the decl8ned over reasons that have nothing to do with the car engine going. I called the car dealership Matthew's Motors in Wilmington North Carolina and they offered no help . Prior to this fiasco one of my coils blew in the engine. I was stranded 3 days in Virginia. I replaced the coils put new sparkplugs and parts over 600 in repairs. The car ran good for a bit then 3 weeks later no car stranded. I only had the car for 2 and a half years and owe 18,000 on it still. No one wants to help me and I'm frustrated. I took care of the car . Can u please help me

While driving, a warning came on my dashboard that I was unfamiliar with as it had never come up before. It informed me my oil pressure was low. I called someone familiar with cars and they told me I may need an oil change. As there were no gas stations near where I exited, I continued to my destination another ten minutes from when the warning came on during which my car began making a rattling/grinding sound. Additionally, my became nearly impossible to accelerate and took about 30 seconds longer than it usually would to reach a specific speed. I parked, and when someone arrived with oil for me, we discovered the oil level was not low based on the dip stick nor was it leaking. This is when we began to suspect that the oil pump had failed. Upon further investigation, this seems to be a common issue with my type of car as there is a current investigation through this organization into 2018 Ford EcoSports and oil pump failure. In order to prevent further damage, I had it towed to my local Ford dealer who inspected my car and informed me my car had experienced catastrophic engine failure and it would cost $7,000 to replace. My car only has 58,000 miles on it.

Was driving down two lane road and all of a sudden oil pressure light came on car started shaking and I was close by a truck stop, pulled in and checked oil, it was fine but the engine seemed real hot, so I knew something was really bad. So called my mother and she came and picked me up after I contacted tow truck to have it towed to Harrisburg Illinois at Jim Hayes where I purchased it on 03/15/2021 and paid the $2,424.00 extended warranty. Yesterday on 12/14/2023 we drove to dealer and was informed it needed new motor. And that we would be refunded the 250.00 dollar tow bill and will only have to pay the 100.00 deductible to have the new motor put in. Plus if they don`t have a loner car come in today 12/15/2023 the warranty will rent us a vehicle and have it delivered to us today since I live some 53 miles away. I am in total shock by all the complaints on here where all these people are having the same problem and people paying out of pocket $8,000 to $9,000 dollars for the same problem, so how long will the next motor last if the company doesn`t correct the defect in these motors????

I have purchased this vehicle in June 2019 and the engine went out while I was driving out of town on 07/02/2021; I have had to replace the engine and the turbo, I had to pay a tow of $340 to the nearest Ford dealership (Marietta, Ga-Gary Service Advisor.) They told me the belt jumped the internal valve timing in the engine. I had to call FORD CORPORATE to beg someone to help me replace the engine because I was at 60,101 miles and the warranty only covered engine repair up to 60K. I was able to get a case manager John Ashley (866-631-3788 ext 79212) and she was able to get ford to cover majority of the $6800 cost of the repairs which I had to wait till November 12 to pick up my car because they said since it was covid the engines and turbos were on back order. At that time I made a payment to Ford for 1875$ for my portion of the repairs. The Warranty that they gave after repairs was for 2 year which the date was 10/10/2023, the car as of 11/27/2023 is back in the shop with the same engine and turbo problem, this time there is oil leaking out of the engine and turbo which need to be replaced. The engine continues to go out while I am driving, it slows down while driving on the interstate and will not allow you to accelerate over 60 mph. There are never any warning lights that come on and my car has been Maintenace at dealerships with receipts.
