Model years to avoid

Ford Ecosport

What it says about you

Opinion

Small, tall, built in India, with a side-hinged tailgate that surprises people in car parks. Cheap and it did the job.

Not measured, not from the data, and offered in fun. Everything below this is not.

5 model years on record, 1,833 complaints filed. No year stood out against this model's own history — which means it has not drawn unusual complaints, not that it is a good car.

Every year

  1. 2022 2 recalls 10 complaints
  2. 2021 3 recalls 256 complaints
  3. 2020 3 recalls 391 complaints
  4. 2019 2 recalls 454 complaints
  5. 2018 2 recalls 722 complaints
