I bought my 2018 EcoSport three years ago and have had absolutely nothing but problems with it, starting just after its first oil change, when it started leaking oil. I took it to the dealership, and they said it was a manufacturing defect, but they could fix it right then and there. Okay. A few months later, at around 15,000 miles, the engine needed to be replaced because the oil pump (?? I think that's what they said) wasn't working properly, and it ruined the engine. It took OVER THREE MONTHS for me to get my car back. Also shortly after I bought it, it started making a "boom" sound when I'd open the door. Turns out it's the stereo system. It resets itself to AM. I've come to understand that every time I hear the "boom," I'll need to change it back to FM. This happens probably around 25% of the time I enter my car. About a year and a half of ownership, it started leaking coolant. A couple of months ago I started it up the electrical system was haywire. No power steering, no displays on the dash, and yet for some reason, the radio wouldn't turn off. They said it was something that needed to be reset. Why? I've never had anything on any other car I owned that needed to be reset like that. Just a few days ago I started my car and it was running rough. I turned it off and restarted it, and it ran fine. I thought maybe it was a fluke, or even my imagination, but it happened again a couple more times. At one point, the engine light came on. I decided to take it to have it looked at, but changed my mind when the day I was going to take it in, it suddenly ran like it was supposed to and the engine light went off. I figured it was something that worked itself out. I was wrong. Today I left for work and it started rough again. Okay, that's it. I decided I've had enough and am going to turn it in at the dealership I got it from. I got in to leave work, and it wouldn't start. Or I should say it wouldn't STAY started. It would sputter for a couple of seconds and die. I tried several times before I finally got it to go anywhere. Fortunately I made it home, but I'm taking it in tomorrow and seeing what kind of deal I can get from the dealership that sold me this steaming pile of crap.
Love my mini SUV

Dealer has 10 left, hurry down to Nalley Ford in Sandy Springs. Metallic white color is really rich looking. Have it 2 weeks, SE model, just about loaded incl navigation, sunroof, blind spot, auto climate control, surround warnings, cross traffic warning and so much more. Don’t believe the garbage that acceleration is horrible, it’s more than adequate. The Ford Ecoboost engines are great, my 4th ford with ecoboost, 2 escapes and an edge. Ford Sync and info systems are state of the art. Really fun to drive, I see a lot of people turning their heads. I’m a senior citizen, bought a ton of cars, this is best value car I’ve ever bought. Love the Ford SUVS, they ride so solid. Run to buy one.

My daughter had a lemon 2014 Ford Focus that she LOVED but it spends more time in the shop then we were willing to deal with. This super cute EcoSport was the perfect replacement. She really likes being taller and the car gets excellent gas mileage. As a college student this is an excellent choice. The best part from my perspective, no more faulty transmission! Excellent vehicle to move up too.
