Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
The 2019 Ford Eco Sport had the loss of oil pressure indicator light turn on all of a sudden. Took to a local mechanic and the oil pressure belt in the engine malfunctioned and is not lubricating the entire engine which could cause the car to freeze up instantly and unexpectantly. It was dangerous to me and others if the car just stopped driving all of a sudden. I stopped driving the car and had it towed to the dealership. The loss of oil pressure light turned on for the first time yesterday 9/26/23. Apparently, this is a common problem for the Eco Sport and the engine is on back order.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle is about three years old and with no prior warnings that something may be wrong, I received a “Low Engine Oil Pressure” warning while driving down the highway that caused me to pull the vehicle over. Acceleration was affected and the car was not operating properly and so I received a tow to a shop. The shop called to inform me that it is in need of a total engine repair and would cost me about $8500 for a used engine since Ford does not currently have any new ones available. I spoke with Ford customer service as well as my dealership who both informed there were no current options for financial assistance from Ford at this time. I am now left with a vehicle that requires more money in repairs than I have to pay it off. Ford is well aware of this issue and I know I am one of many Ford owners who are now left with this problem. This is not the first issue I have had with this vehicle. Approximately a year ago my computer system that handles my back up camera and hands free technology also stopped working and is in need of an APIM replacement which is about $4000. This is also an issue well known to Ford users and impacts the safety of the drivers. All in all to make necessary repairs would cost almost as much as the MSRP for the vehicle itself and I still have half of that to continue to pay on.

Potential Consequences:
On July 7th, 2023 I went to my Ford dealership to get my standard oil change for my 2019 Ford Ecosport. While doing regular inspections during that visit I was notified that I had a cracked oil pan and was told that it was not a major issue at the time but should get it repaired. On July 28, 2023 I went to get my standard state inspection. Before the car was inspected I specifically asked if the oil pan would need to be fixed prior to inspection as I had noticed that my engine light came on but then shut off after a day or two. I was told the oil pan would not fail my inspection and was given a passing review. On September 10th, 2023 I was driving back from vacation, two hours from my home, when, while on the highway, my low engine oil pressure light came on and my car started to kick back and lose power. I was luckily able to eventually pull over somewhere safe but the car was no longer drivable as I could not accelerate and the brakes began to fail. I had to have it towed back to my home dealership for inspection. It is currently being looked at. After brief research I have read several other reports regarding my 2019 Ford Ecosport and engine failure. My car was bought brand new, I’ve only had it for 4 years and has 72,000 miles on it when the incident occurred.

My cars low engine oil light came on suddenly and then the engine started making noises. Full on oil and not leaking. Mechanic says it’s an internal issue and will be $5600 to repair. I already have an electrical issue with the A-pin that Ford said was $3000. It never got repaired because they never contacted me saying the part was in. The engine issue has a recall for the year make and model of my car but my car was built 7 days after the cut off. That date needs to be changed to include my car since it’s the same exact issue according to the mechanic.
Corrective Action:
