Car is incessantly jumping/jerking when switch gears. The symptom is so bad it is comparable to hitting a speed bump without slowing down. Sometimes it jumps forward and seems as though you can't stop it. It happens when backing out of the driveway, putting the car in drive from reverse, putting the car in drive from park, putting the car in reverse from park, accelerating after stopping at a stop sign or a light, and more. Dealership the vehicle was purchased from has tried to fix the problem approximately 5 times. Car was at the dealership from July '22 to October '22 and problem still was not fixed. Another Ford certified dealer tried to fix it with no success.

For some reason screen on my entertainment center on Ecosport goes black. So far I had two software updates and one screen replacement but the problem still appears. I am so pissed off with this that my dealer is not able to fix this problem. For some reason screen on my entertainment center on Ecosport goes black.
