Hope they perform a recall here and replace transmission with a normal slushbox ones.

That lawsuit may just put a too huge a dent on their bottomline.
do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do
Wonder if they can sue their transmission vendor also

Ford will fight it though, as we all expect they will. But the message is clear, they are making trannys which are defective.
Yet another reason, I will not be buying a Ford (Fix Or Repair Daily) anytime in the future.
the rangers and everests have been outstanding. as well as the ford f150s and mustangs that have the new 10R80s.
their only mistake was the dcts. which they have already ditched. most current vehicles including the ecosports have the newer shift selects torque converters.
Speaking of Ecosports Master SE, I was riding as a front passenger in one a few months ago, while cruising down the NLEX at around 100KpH, the engine and tranny sounded really loud. Is that normal for this model? You will really notice both major components at high speed.
Only their dry clutch DCTs have faulty issues but yeah they should have properly managed the problem instead of denying it and shifting the blame to the owners hihi. They are most likely to get slapped with another high penalty.
1st im not a master...
regarding this ecosport. we need to find out if its mt or at. and which model year. and when the last maintenance was done. many owners skip servicing because of the cost.
also the noise could be from the wheel bearing. maybe it has been submerged in a flood. too many variables in my opinion where discussions can be inconclusive.
You are, you just don't know it yet.
As far as I can recall, it was a 2016 model, automatic and the lady owner is religious about her car maintenance.
Still, she can be quite the 'kaskasero' on the road, she has a heavy foot sometimes.
Anyways, I hope Ford resolves this major issue they now have. Come to think of it, almost all of the big car manufacturers have had class actions suits brought against them at one point or another in the past.
The previous gen (1.5L 4-cylinder NA, DCT) is known to be not good in terms of performance. My wife once rode with her friend’s Ecosport and she told her friend bluntly that her car feels labored on SCTEX. The new generation is better in terms of performance, specially the Ecoboost model.

I think your wife and I had the same experience Master E.
I do hope Ford improves the quality their local offerings. So many people depend on them.
It has it's uses sometimes. Agreed though, this will be a test on how Ford-PH handles group complaints if ever the issues with the DCTs pop out locally.Originally Posted by StockEngine
Look at this partial auction list...Even the owners are giving their Fords back to their banks.[emoji852]

Ang dami nga dyan, here is the complete list from only that one bank. Lots of other brands too though, Hyundais and Toyotas as well.
