Car owners have filed a lawsuit, claiming that the coolant in these power units can leak into the cylinders. Such a leak leads to a gradual decrease in fluid volume, overheating, and significant engine damage — including complete unit failure.
In the statement, the plaintiffs emphasize that the manufacturer was aware of this defect but did not warn customers and did not provide an effective way to fix the malfunction.
The owners point out that after such breakdowns, repairs are often impossible, which calls into question the reliability of the vehicle and the safety of its use. The legal process has not yet been completed, but this situation has already dealt a significant blow to the reputation of the well-known brand.
EcoBoost is a series of turbocharged gasoline engines that Ford presents as an economical and environmentally friendly replacement for more powerful engines. However, increasingly these units are becoming the cause of technical disputes and scandals.
