In about July of 2023 car stalled at the light, then eventually started. Upon arriving home I turned the car off then tried to restart it started in battery mode? I tried shutting it back off and the vehicle started rolling down the hill at about 3 mph and would not allow me to shift gears or steer the wheel. Brakes were not functioning. Once I reached the bottom of the hill I pulled the Emergency brake to stop the car. Car was towed to the Ofrd dealership and was in the shop for 2 weeks with them trying to determine what happened and what caused the failure. The dealer after 2 weeks said it was the computer system that needed to be reset. Which I found to be odd as it should not have taken that long if it was only the computer system. Fast forward to 2024 new recall on the vehicle, that sounds like what happen to my car in 2023. Solution was supposed to be available in a few months and here we are in at the end of the year with no solution. I don't want to keep driving the vehicle with a chance it may stall on me without notice. There has yo be some kind of resolution as I would want a tragic accident to force a qui ker turn around.

Can't open the hood either the latch or the cord is broken. It's very dangerous to drive the car while the engine oil is due to change. The latch or the cord is very defective. Also, airbag has been staying on the dashboard for a long time.

There-??s no fix available per the manufacturer.

Brakes locked up. Been paying 11 months on my loan and the vehicle is in Texas while I live in Minnesota. Have had to buy another car and continue payments on my loan for this one though Ford will do nothing to resolve it.

I have a 2018 Ford EcoSport (Recall 23s64). I had asked the dealer about this recall during my last oil change that was apprx 1 month prior to breaking down. I was told I would contacted when the vehicle is ready to be brought in. I was out of town on [XXX] in CT when the dashboard warning indicated "Low Engine Oil Pressure." The car began to decelerate and I took the next exit in Wallingford Ct and called a Tow. There was no Ford Dealer in the area that would see me. My care was towed to Firestone where they diagnosed the issue as being related to the recall. I needed to get the car towed home, get a rental car, and hotel for one night because rental cars were not available until the next day. I have been in touch with Ford and the Ford Dealership. The information they are providing me is sketchy related to covering expenses related to these extenuating circumstances. I spoke with the Ford and Ford dealership about rental reimbursement 2 weeks ago. Only today was I advised that rental would only be reimbursed for Ford vehicles. I pushed back and asked for escalation at Ford. I would like clear and concise information from Ford and the Ford Dealer but they are not particularly forthcoming with information.

My vehicle is part of the recall 23S64/NHTSA 23V905. My vehicle became unusable as part of the recalled part failure in February 2024. I just received notification that the part will not be available until 2025. I have been in a rental car, Ford is paying for since February. I have tow fees and rental fees that have not been covered by Ford. I just want my vehicle back it has been 4 months and according to the newest recall from Ford the part will not be available until next year. This situation is being taken care of without charge but this is an unreasonable time for the repair to take place.

While daughter was driving vehicle, the vehicle lost complete power. There is no drive power and almost put my daughter in an accident. We have taken the vehicle to where we purchased it from, and they advised it needed a new engine, after several months, we found out it was due to this engine recall on the ECO Sport and was told it had to be taken to a certified Ford dealer to handle the recall, since the recall superseded the warranty we purchased on the vehicle. It is now sitting at Bob Thomas Ford in Fort Wayne Indiana since February/March, and Ford is not taking responsibility for this. They only offered a rental vehicle on April 15th, which was 5 months into us not having the vehicle, because they have had nothing further on this recall and no parts. I have put in several claims with Ford asking for them to buy back the vehicle at what we owe, since we had to replace the car. Now, they are stating that parts are anticipated to be available 1st quarter of 2025. I am asking that Ford pay off the balance of the vehicle and buy it back. They cannot expect people to pay on a loan for a car when it is not drivable, for over a year.

As a result of the aforementioned recall, my car stalled in March 2024. The letter I got from Ford stated, word for word, -??Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving your vehicle under this safety recall.-?? I feel they are responsible and should assist me with transportation. This has cause a huge hardship in my family.

I received recall letter Feb 2024 regarding engine oil pump drive belt may fracture and may result in brake failure and risk of crash. I have not driven my car since Feb 2024. I do not want to crash and kill myself & other people on the road. I have called my dealership where I bought the car new in 2018 (Skalnek Ford) and they have no info on when parts will be in and I called Ford 866-436-7332 and all I get is a recording. This is a serious problem! I am upset that I can not drive my car & have no idea when repair will be done. What can you do to solve this problem with Ford? I am afraid to drive my car for fear of my brakes failing and causing a crash that may kill me and possibly other people. I hope I filled out this form correctly. I had to put a date on when "incident happened" to finish filling out this form. I did not have an "incident". I have not driven my car since I got recall letter Feb 2024. That is the date I put for my "incident". I am hoping you can help me with this problem I have with Ford. Thank you

I purchased this car on [XXX] and the car ran good for two weeks. On [XXX] I drove the car from Fort Worth Tx to Houston which is roughly 290 miles. I got 30 mins to my destination and and the oil pressure light came on. I thought it was maybe because of the long drive so I pulled over at a Mcdonalds and let the car sit for about 15 mins. I turned the car back on and now both the oil pressure light and check engine light was on. I got back on the road but decided not to get back on the highway after about 5 mins of driving the car shut off at a light and would not cut back on. My family was stuck on side of the road for over 3 hours with the car in the middle of the street waiting for a tow truck. I had the car towed to my destination and called a mobile mechanic to come out the next morning to stated the timing chain or belt bad broken in the engine. I called the dealership and they were rude and would not allow me to speak to the owner. I called the bank and they said nothing could do. I called Ford and was informed of the recall but there was no parts available. I was told that the recall would not be fully in effect until the second quarter ; May or June. I am a [XXX] student working part time who saved up enough money for a down payment. Now I am on the hook for paying over $700 a month for insurance and a car I cannot drive. I am back to paying for daily ride shares. This was my first time buying a car and what a terrible experience it has been. I am stuck between ruining my credit or waiting on Ford to fix the problem. I filed a report to Ford and received a case #[XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

In October 2023, my oil pump failed while on the freeway, resulting in total engine and turbo failure, severe emotional distress, and a substantial financial burden. I had to pay out of pocket to replace both components. In February 2024, the transmission failed on the freeway, increasing the financial burden already on my shoulders as Ford notified me they would not consider reimbursement for the money already spent on the engine and turbo replacement until 6-8 weeks after I file a report, and they will not allow me to file the reimbursement request until some point in April-June of this year. I drive for work and am now in an extremely difficult position due to the failure of multiple components resulting in serious mental, emotional, and financial duress. My safety was endangered in both cases as I was driving on the freeway in traffic. I do not believe a car less than 6 years old should have an engine, turbo, and transmission failure all just outside of the 5 year warranty within a few months of each other. I believe this violates the implied warranty of merchantability and presents a serious hazard for other owners of this make and model.

I was losing oil quickly. One Ford dealership said there was a leak in my engine. 2 other Ford dealerships couldn't find said leak. On [XXX] I was taking my car in for an oil change when about 8 miles out my brakes stopped working. Per Jennifer Wilkes at Ford this was the issue "Good afternoon, I had to submit a claim to replace the long block of the motor as well as the turbo assembly and the vacuum brake booster. They are all bad and need to be replaced. I submitted a claim today to Ford for the repairs with your extended warranty. I am holding for approval at this time Allan Vigil Ford Lincoln" Per this recall, I should not have been charged for this repair. This was all related to the recall and I was charged $200 after my warranty. Please refund me. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
