Consumer Description

On October 11th my wife’s EcoSport showed a check engine light, so we started to head towards David McDavid’s service. En route, the oil pressure light came on and the car died in the middle of the road right as schools were getting out. A White Settlement Police Officer kindly helped me push the car out of the middle of the road and it was towed to David McDavid Ford. The dealership confirmed that the engine had died as a result of failed oil pressure. We take care of our cars (spending about $1200 annually per vehicle) and for this to happen on a 2018 vehicle is greatly concerning.
