2019 Ford Ecosport

Unknown While i was driving on the highway my car stopped in the middle and a load noise was coming low engine oil pressure i got the car home safe since it was Saturday the dealership was closed i Was with my elderly mom in the car at the time i had to wait Monday morning i called ford and was told to Tow it or bring it in couldn’t drive it so i had it towed I towed the car to a ford dealership and paid out of pocket for the tow the service rep at ford service rep Santiago try to assist me i was advise to contact Ford Customer service program which i did and spoke to 4 different reps and a supervisor requested a manager i was hung up 3 times i don’t mind my car takes time to be worked on but i don’t have a car to drive to work or take my elderly mother that’s really sick to her appointments . I just purchased this car late November 2023 i haven’t had the car for only 8 month has 55,000 miles when purchase it still paying for the loan and insurance and now without this i don’t have a car it can take 5-7 Bds for the issue to be inspected i can’t wait that long i contacted ford and i was told there’s nothing they can do for me at the moment and i would have to wait . This is so frustrating and annoying and disrespectful and disgusting that i am not getting anyway .

Almost 6 months ago, my car began to malfunction. It would not start at all. I paid $500 to have a mechanic diagnose the issue and replace the battery, but nothin worked. I had to have the car towed to the Ford dealership, and they advised me that my engine had failed due to a defect in the fuel pump tensioner, which was an issue that was under recall. They told that they could not do anything to repair the issue, however, because the recall had not been officially published. It has now been nearly six months with my vehicle sitting at the dealership, unusable, because Ford refuses to repair it until the recall comes out. They have also refused to provide a rental or loaner car so I have been out of a vehicle.

My car can no longer accelerate and multiple lights came on, this all happened while i was driving and there was no warning signs that my car was about to do that it just happened out of nowhere while I was driving it.Now I can’t drive my vehicle until it is repaired but the recall parts are still not available so I don’t know what to do to fix my car.

The vehicle experiences a sudden loss of power/acceleration randomly. Sometimes this happens while driving on the freeway and I cannot accelerate to move to the shoulder. Other times, I can accelerate but very slowly. When this happens, the check engine light will come on and I also receive a powertrain malfunction alert on my Ford app. This issue first occurred on [XXX] - I had to have it towed to Ford. They stated it was the battery then, so I purchased a new one. I brought the vehicle back to Ford for the same issue on [XXX], and then on [XXX] I was driving on the beltway and lost complete acceleration of the car. The check engine light and powertrain light came on. The vehicle would not drive. I had it towed to Ford and they had replaced the engine under the original manufacturing warranty. I got the vehicle back on 10/3/23. Even after replacing the engine, I started to experience the same issue. I brought the car back to Ford on [XXX]. Then once again I brought it back to Ford on [XXX]. On 4/30/24 they said the vehicle was ready to be picked up and the part was covered under the Service warranty so I only paid $100. Within 1 mile of leaving the dealership, my powertrain malfunction light came on and my vehicle lost power, I could only accelerate up to 30mph. I drove the car straight back to Ford. They then called me on May 28th/24 and said they replaced 2 more parts and the car was fixed. Within 3 miles of leaving Ford, once again the powertrain malfunction light came on and I could not accelerate over 40mph. I drove the car back to Ford and it is still there now.

I believe the component that failed is engine oil pump belt tensioner this is a recalled item. It is available for inspection however it cannot be checked out by Ford itself. I have notified 3 dealerships and they all stated that the part will be available in the second quarter and that's it. My car cannot run properly the brakes don't work the engine is making noises and I have a low oil pressure light on. My safety and the safety of others was put at risk when my brakes stopped working while I was driving it. The problem has not been confirmed because they won't let me drop it off until later on this month. My car isn't working and it's the only car I have. There was an low oil pressure light as well as my check engine light. My car engine was making rattling noises and my transmission is having issues shifting. This first appeared June 28th 2024. The Ford company has lied to me and told me that even though there is a recall on my car that it is still drivable.

I have a 2019 ford ecosport se that is affected with the Engine oil pump belt tensioner replacement ford has done absolutely nothing to help the problem I have been without a vehicle since Jan. In January me and my wife were driving and all of a sudden the low engine pressure light came on and the vehicle slowly started getting slow and we pulled off to the side of the road and had it towed to the CASA ford dealership in Las Cruces NM 470 W Boutz Rd, Las Cruces, NM 88005 575-525-4500 and the diagnostic the vehicle letting me know the vehicle is affected due to this recall and they have submitted documents to ford but nothing has been told to me other then there waiting on ford because the recall still says remedy incomplete. I have been paying on the vehicle and have told the dealership and ford company about a loaner something that me and my wife have been without a vehicle. Ford needs to fix there mistake I have been without a vehicle for 5 months know not knowing anything.
