This is my 2nd Ford and how I didn't learn my lesson with the first one, I haven't a clue. 2020 Ford Ecosport Titanium 2.0. I put a lot of mileage on cars bc of my job. I have had this car about 11 months and it started having issues just over 36,000. It's in the shop as I write this. They are saying it's the canister purge valve. Here we go. I had the same issue on the 2018 Ford Focus at the same mileage. It was replaced 3 times until I traded it for this model. Never again, absolutely not, will I ever, ever, purchase another Ford. I researched this issue and Ford recalled about 10 yrs worth of models and covered it under warranty. But not my focus and I am waiting to hear back from the dealer if it's covered on the ecosport. I had even called Ford about this issue with the focus and they wouldn't do anything. They will cover it once they have to keep replacing it but the first fail is on your dime. Also, gas mileage sucks. I was barely getting 20 miles to the gallon. Now it's up to 24 only bc I'm using premium and adding fuel injector cleaner. But who can afford premium these days. Also, this is a subcompact suv, tall or big family, be prepared to squeeze in and out of this vehicle. No trunk space. Maybe 2 small pieces of luggage. Don't get sucked it with the rebate they may offer. Nothing but a headache with these cars.

I'm currently in the process of enacting the Ohio Lemon Law's for this car. I've had it since November 2019 and have had TWO transmissions fully rebuilt into the car in the past year. Do not buy unless you want a headache and lawsuit on your hands.

NO SPARE TIRE!

Who ever heard of a car that comes with no spare tire, no jack and no lug wrench. Instead it has a inflator/repair kit that's worthless. Worst idea ford ever had!
