2021 Ford EcoSport Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine codes for the 2021 Ford EcoSport include P0300-series misfire codes, P0420 catalytic efficiency codes, P0171/P0174 fuel trim codes, and various oxygen sensor or EVAP system codes. Left unaddressed, misfires can lead to catalytic converter failure (costly), poor fuel economy, and reduced performance.

Miller Ford Lincoln Draper in Draper, UT, our technicians prioritize accurate code diagnosis, educate you on cost implications, and recommend OEM repairs that protect long-term value. By addressing codes early, you save on immediate repair costs and avoid expensive downstream replacements.
