19 reportsCAR WANTS TO STALL AFTER GETTING FUEL
I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN 2019 A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING CAR SINCE THEN MY ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. HAD IT SERVICED AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON. WAS TOLD IT COULD BE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. EVERY NOW AND THEN IT WOULD SHUTTLE ONCE STARTED. TODAY IT DIDN'T WANT TO EXCELLERATE WHILE DRIVING
AFTER AND WHILE GASSING UP CAR STALLS AND DOES NOT START UP RIGHT WAY.. SOUNDS LIKE EVAP SENSOR AND CANISTER ISSUES AND FORD DOES NOT WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT..AND CAR ONLY HAS 60000 MILES
THE CAR WANT START AND THE OIL LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I HAD A OIL CHANGE DONE ON THE CAR TODAY AFTER GETTING IT HOME IT WILL NOT START UP THE BATTERY IS GOOD BUT THE CAR IS JUST NOT START. ITS TURNING OVER BUT STAYING ON
MY CAR BEEN ACTING LIKE IT DON'T WANNA START BACK IN MARCH ITS BEEN SAYING ENGINE MALFUNCTION SERVICE NOW AND I BEEN IN CONTACT WITH FORD ABOUT IT FOR THE LONGEST. I WANTED THEM TO FIX IT BECAUSE I GOT THE CAR FROM THEM AND I KNEW I WAS STILL IN MY WARRANTY. THEN MY CAR WAS ONLY A YEAR AND A HALF OLD. THEY BEEN TELLING ME THE PA…

MY CAR BEEN ACTING LIKE IT DON'T WANNA START BACK IN MARCH ITS BEEN SAYING ENGINE MALFUNCTION SERVICE NOW AND I BEEN IN CONTACT WITH FORD ABOUT IT FOR THE LONGEST. I WANTED THEM TO FIX IT BECAUSE I GOT THE CAR FROM THEM AND I KNEW I WAS STILL IN MY WARRANTY. THEN MY CAR WAS ONLY A YEAR AND A HALF OLD. THEY BEEN TELLING ME THE PART BEEN ON BACK ORDER AND SOME PEOPLE SAID THEY DON'T A ORDER FOR MY CAR BUT 3 WEEKS AGO FROM TODAY I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND IT STARTED SLOWING DOWN ON WAS ON MARTIN LUTHER KING DRIVE . I GOT AN OIL CHANGE A WEEK BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRED NO ONE SAID ANYTHING TO ME ABOUT MY CAR NEEDED MORE WORK AND THEY DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE PART I ORDERED. IT'S LIKE AS SOON AS MY WARRANTY EXPIRED MY CAR STARTED SKIPPING AND NOT WANTING TO START. I GOT MY CAR TOWED AND FORD WORKED ON IT SAYING THAT THE THROTTLE BODY TO MY CAR WENT OUT AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE PICTURES AND VIDEOS FROM WHEN MY CAR STARTED ACTING UP TO WHEN IT STOP DRIVING. *TR

VEHICLE ENGINE STALLS WHEN IN TRAFFIC. WHEN I DECELERATE AND ENGAGE THE CLUTCH (MANUAL TRANSMISSION), SOMETIMES THE ENGINE SPEED WILL GO SO LOW, THE ENGINE STALLS. IT USUALLY HAPPENS IN VERY HEAVY TRAFFIC AND I HAVE TO ENGAGE THE CLUTCH. THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS HAPPENS PRETTY MUCH ANYWHERE, STREET, HIGHWAY, FREEWAY, DRIVE WAY. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE CLUTCH IS ENGAGED. IF THE CAR IS IN GEAR AND THE CLUTCH IS NOT ENGAGED, IT WONT STALL. I DID TAKE IT TO HEMBORG FORD IN NORCO, CA AND THEY REFLASHED THE COMPUTER, BUT IT STILL IS HAPPENING. YESTERDAY 12 AUG, I WAS ENTERING A ROADWAY AND A VEHICLE JUMPED IN FRONT OF ME. I APPLIED BOTH THE BRAKES AND CLUTCH AND WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE WAS STALLED CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS I WAS ALREADY COMMITTED TO ENTERING THE ROADWAY AND VEHICLES WERE APPROACHING ME FROM BEHIND AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED.
TURNING A CURVATURE ON A MOUNTAIN ROAD STEERING LOCKED AND BRAKES FAILED CAR WENT OVER THE MOUNTAIN AS A RESULT PASSANGERS THREE WERE INJURED AND ONE FATALITY.
I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE 2017 FORD FIESTA, (JUST HIT THE 30 DAY MARK), AND ABOUT A WEEK IN I NOTICED THE CAR DO THIS JOLT THING WHILE ACCELERATING. I THOUGHT I MAY HAVE BEEN JUST LAYING MY FOOT TOO HARD ON THE GAS BY ACCIDENT BUT NOW, ON A FEW DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WHILE SLOWING THE CAR DOWN IT HAS VIOLENTLY JUMPED FORWARD. IT ST…

2EA26004 · Timing Belt Failure
Opened Jul 31, 2026 · No close date supplied
Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Engine; Engine And Engine Cooling:engine:gasoline:belts And Associated Pulleys
On December 18, 2025, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened PE25020 to investigate instances of timing belt failure in model year (MY) 2015-2017 Ford Fiesta and MY 2015-2018 Ford Focus vehicles manufactured by Ford Motor Company (Ford), equipped with a 1.0L engine and manual transmission (subject vehicles). Additionally, MY 2018-2021 Ford EcoSport and MY 2016-2018 Focus vehicles with a 1.0L engine and automatic transmission were analyzed as peer vehicles because they utilize a wet timing belt comprised of similar material as the timing belt in the subject vehicles. Through the PE, ODI investigated a potential failure/degradation of the timing belt that may affect oil pump function resulting in a lack of engine lubrication and potential loss of motive power. The complaints commonly allege a low engine oil pressure warning lamp immediately preceding a complete loss or reduction of motive power while the vehicle is in motion. Some complaints allege that a sudden loss of motive power or engine seizure occurred without warning or prior detectable symptoms. ODI’s analysis supports that this failure can occur without sufficient and advanced warning to the driver that a loss of motive power/engine seizure is imminent. ODI found that the timing belt material may degrade and create debris that clogs the mesh oil pump pick-up screen, resulting in reduced oil pressure in the engine. As additional debris accumulates on the screen, this can progress to a loss of motive power while driving due to a lack of engine lubrication. The failure data provided in response to this investigation revealed an average failure mileage of approximately 70,000 miles, and that 98% of the failures occurred prior to the 150,000 mile timing belt replacement interval per the vehicles’ maintenance schedule. Based on evidence collected via consumer surveys and an engine teardown, failures have occurred despite evidence of proper and routine oil maintenance. The oil pump pick-up screen is not serviceable, so debris accumulation cannot be inspected or manually removed without removing the engine from the vehicle. On June 2, 2026, Ford informed ODI of a non-safety customer satisfaction program for global vehicles with the 1.0L Fox Classic Timing Belt. This program will notify customers globally of a revised maintenance interval for the timing belt, reducing the original 150,000 mile interval down to 100,000 miles/6 years. This customer satisfaction program will also offer reimbursement to eligible customers who previously paid to have their engine repaired or replaced due to a timing belt related issue. Based on NHTSA’s analysis of the data, failure rates, information provided by Ford, preliminary engine teardown analysis, and precedent recalls regarding loss of engine oil pressure with the presence of driver facing warnings, ODI believes there is an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety. ODI is opening this Engineering Analysis to perform component-level and vehicle testing. To review the reports cited in the Closing Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to NHTSA.gov.
