ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Potential Consequences:
I am writing to you about my 2018 EcoSport. I have been waiting for the parts to come into the dealership since the recall, and yet the parts still have not arrived. I have been having problems with my car before I got it fixed. Now I am having problems with my breaks. I've asked one of the service workers if it was ok to drive it, which he said it was okay. When I left the dealership, I was close to having a wreak, hence why I am writing to you all to let you know that someone needs to notify the dealership to make them aware that I need a rental car until they can fix my car completely before I get into an accident. Please get back with me as soon as possible,

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Today (March-25-2025) a light came on saying "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE" when I was driving home from work. I pulled in the driveway and turned the car off, checked the oil and noticed it was completely full. I am still waiting on a recall for this vehicle since last year, and since my wife and I both work, and have kids to take care of, not having a vehicle is definitely a problem.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I have been waiting on the recall to be fixed for almost 2 years now. I've contacted Ford more times than I can remember, and they don't do anything other than say it's not available yet. I have had to replace the transmission, had many small repairs thinking it was something other than the recall. (I've paid over 2.5k in repairs and 1k in Ubers out of pocket) has 49000 miles, and I do not feel safe driving it at all. I will go somewhere that's within 5 miles, so I know I won't be stuck too far or on the highway, so it is causing MANY inconveniences as well as money for Uber etc. It is paid off and I'm going crazy trying to get this fixed. This is absolutely ridiculous, and I'm beyond FED UP! I keep looking to find a car similar that is NOT a Ford, but they're all too expensive and I don't think it's right I have to pay for FORD'S mistake!

SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
I have been waiting on the recall to be fixed for almost 2 years now. I've contacted Ford more times than I can remember, and they don't do anything other than say it's not available yet. I have had to replace the transmission, had many small repairs thinking it was something other than the recall. (I've paid over 2.5k in repairs and 1k in Ubers out of pocket) has 49000 miles, and I do not feel safe driving it at all. I will go somewhere that's within 5 miles, so I know I won't be stuck too far or on the highway, so it is causing MANY inconveniences as well as money for Uber etc. It is paid off and I'm going crazy trying to get this fixed. This is absolutely ridiculous, and I'm beyond FED UP! I keep looking to find a car similar that is NOT a Ford, but they're all too expensive and I don't think it's right I have to pay for FORD'S mistake!
