2018 Ford Ecosport

I was driving when the Low Engine Oil Pressure alert came on the dash without the check engine light. The engine turned off minutes later after turning into a quick oil change garage so I was towed to the Ford dealer. Two weeks later I am told the oil pump was reading zero psi (not working) and therefore the engine seized and now needs to be replaced without even addressing the oil pump issue that caused the engine to seize. I had no warning or indication about any issue while driving. Also, a recall letter from Ford states how this vehicle's engine can stop running when driving. How is anyone supposed to know? Any guidance will be gladly embraced. Thank you.

In February of 2024, the transmission on this vehicle was bucking and jerking. I took it to Ford and they assessed it as transmission failure. I had the transmission replaced. On Thursday May 2, 2024, having only driven approximately 3,000 miles in the interim, the new transmission went while I was driving 50 mph on a highway. The vehicle had a loud bang and jerk and would not go more than 10 mph. Nothing on the dash lit up to warn of any problem. Thankfully it was very early in the morning so there was little traffic. I was able to turn around and drive on the shoulder back to my house. During that time I could hear what sounded like parts bouncing around and the vehicle sounded like it was stuck in 2nd gear. I had it taken by flatbed to my mechanic, who confirmed that the transmission is again damaged beyond repair. This vehicle has the same defective transmission as the Focus. It is a lemon and should be subject to recall or at the very least the extension of warranty made by Ford for the Focus. They know that this is a defect in the design and they should be held accountable for their error. Had it been rush hour, I could have been killed or at the very least grievously injured.

In Jan 2024 my car started running rough. In Feb 2024 I was mailed the 23V-905 recall notice. Late Feb I had the oil changed in my car. This didn't help the rough running. Mar 4 2024 a warning came on indicating "low engine oil pressure". I took it back to the oil change shop, who looked at everything, showed me it had a safe oil level...it was not dripping oil on my driveway. I was then told about the recall notice and to have it diagnosed at a dealership. Every dealer I called advised it an advance notice only, it's okay to drive my car, until parts are available - In July. I called Ford who gave me a service ticket CAS48387851. My dealership did a diagnosis and said there is metal in the oil with coes P0012, Intake camshaft position timing over re-tarded P0014, low or contaminated oil P0299, Turbo under boost condition P0303, cylinder 3 misfire detected P0316, Engine misfire Detected on start up P0340, camshaft position sensor A circuit P0344." They said I need my engine replaced for $7266.XX - and that this isn't recall related. I need NHTSA to upgrade the Ford recall to expedite repairs. There are many people without use of their vehicles, still making payments, and no replacement car due to Ford's inadequate response to a problem known since Feb 2022 when Critical Concern Reviewed the oil pump issue. Thank you

My engine had blown under warranty. They had replaced the engine, which took two weeks once I got my car back, about a week or two later, check engine, lights and warnings pops back on. I return to Ford to assess the problem and they reassured me that the warnings were just because they replaced the engine and they should disappear shortly. Two weeks have gone by and the warnings were still there and my car had started driving awkwardly again. I returned to forward to get my car, repaired under warranty and receive a loaner vehicle to remain doing my every day job with. They did not have any loaner cars and did not have availability to work on my vehicle for three months. They called me with availability. My warranty was up and they were unable to fix my engine since I have lost the house I was living in. Became homeless. And now I’ve got myself back in a house and working to get my car repaired. This is caused a lot of damage for me and my family as we have still been unable to get the car repaired and it has been almost 4 years since I took my car into ford for the repair. Now that it is recalled, they still do not have a solution, and they will not allow me to return the car to them for a loaner car until they do fix the vehicle.

wife was driving in rush hour traffic about 8am , noticed the warning light low engine oil pressure light on the dash, from the left lane she made her way to the right of the 4 lane highway to the breakdown lane due, to the traffic it took her a couple of mins to make it to the right at which time the car stopped running.car,it was towed. to a ford dealership in Lees Summit missouri it appears that the oil pump failed, the car is at that dealership for inspection .the wife's safety was put at risk due to this oil pump failure in rush hour traffic the dealership has stated that the engine is locked up we have a extended warranty with fidelity warranty services,inc and someone from there has to inspect the motor first before the ford dealer can made any repairs Bob Sight ford is the dealership in Lees Summit MO, there was no advance warning of the problem until the warning light came on

Complete engine failure due to recall on oil pump belt tensioner (the known recall issue, issued Jan 2024) and Ford refuses to fix my vehicle because the "parts aren't ready yet" and won't be until the 3rd quarter of 2024. They have not provided a solution, offered compensation, etc. I am at a total loss considering I still have a loan out on the car and have only had it for three years. I have taken great care of my vehicle and have kept up with the necessary maintenance, oil changes, etc. I am under the mileage warranty but I believe the 5 year warranty is out. Regardless, there is a known recall for this exact issue and the diagnostic test came back that this is what caused the engine failure, yet Ford offers no solution, no timeline, no compensation, nothing. They didn't even offer to cover my tow or a rental. Simply put, I want them to take the vehicle back and pay my loan off.

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.

Vehicle was seemingly losing power speedometer was registering 70 on the highway but car was Not doing that. Also, there were no warning lights or any indicators of a problem inside or outside of the vehicle. Immediately pulled over to wait for tow truck that never showed and vehicle was driven to and dropped off at nearest Ford dealership. (Which was literally right across the street ) Immediately upon drop off service advisor said they already had several other of the same vehicles in the shop and it was probably the drive/tensioner belt this was back on the FIRST CONTACT on [XXX]. After being torn down for multiple insurance inspections the dealer confirmed & advised the failure of this belt subsequently blew the engine & since the engine was then blow there is NO remedy other than a replacement engine (even though even the dealership confirmed verbally & via email my vehicle was fully operational at drop off so I believe they blew my engine while in their care). My extended warranty holds me accountable for the initial cause of failure being the tensioner belt (which Ford is now issuing a recall on) and will only offer a betterment towards the replacement engine. Ford has yet to take accountability for anything as they still want me to pay out the remaining balance on the engine (approx 3800) and have The warranty company pay about 3600 for something that Ford should now be taking fault for since it’s a manufacturing issue. Which is now blatantly obvious with the recall. How dangerous it was at a low speed on a Texas highway! We could of been hit or worse! It is now the end of January and they still have my car neither co has helped with a rental in the last 6 months AND Ford now wants me to call the insurance co yet again so they can be paid. Icing on the cake is Ford has reassured me even with a new engine this problem will inevitably happen AGAIN! Please help!
