AIR BAGS
About 2 weeks ago airbag censor light came on dash and stays on now indicating something wrong with one of our airbags, we just got our car back on March 8th 2024, it only has a little over 44,000 miles on our car, the dealership we got it at is supposed to look at it and see what's wrong with it, I've read about all the recalls for this year and model our car has, we didn't know anything about any recalls for our car when we purchased it, just read about them today, I also read about the Tanaka airbag recall that is making it dangerous to drive your car, when we go this Wednesday to have our car look at, I'm going to mention all of the recalls on the car that the dealership didn't tell us about.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
The recall on the oil pump has really put a halt in my life. I was driving home when my vehicle cut out. I lost control of the vehicle for a second. Thank goodness I was not on a highway and was able to get it going again to drive home. My dash lit up with all different lights, one being low oil. The vehicle is now sitting at a Ford Dealership where we wait for parts for the EcoSport. This was several months ago. I was told multiple times I could not get a loaner car and that I would have to pay for a loaner if that is what I needed. I ended up going to another dealership and financed another vehicle as my job requires me to travel. I have been in contact with the Ford Support and the Ford dealership and nothing seems to be getting done about it.
