Ford questions we answer every week
Straight answers from our techs
Why is my Ford Escape losing coolant?
Some 2013–2019 Escapes and Fusions with the 1.5L or 1.6L EcoBoost can lose coolant and overheat — some are covered by recalls or extended warranties.
Warning signs
Low coolant warning · Overheating · White smoke
What we do
We pressure-test the cooling system and check your VIN for recalls before recommending a repair.
Colorado Springs: Don't keep driving a turbo engine that's overheating.
Why is my Explorer's coolant disappearing?
On Explorers, Edges and Flexes with the 3.5L V6, the water pump is inside the engine and driven by the timing chain. When it leaks, coolant can go into the oil.
Warning signs
Coolant loss with no puddle · Milky oil · Overheating
What we do
We test for internal leakage and replace the pump with the timing components when needed.
Why does my Ford Focus shudder from a stop?
2012–2016 Focus and Fiesta models with the PowerShift dual-clutch are known for shudder, slipping and hesitation.
Warning signs
Shudder from a stop · Hesitation · Slipping
What we do
We diagnose the clutch and module and check for software updates and coverage.
Why does my Ford rattle on a cold start?
A brief rattle on a cold start on many Ford V8s and EcoBoost engines points to cam phasers or timing chain wear.
Warning signs
Cold-start rattle · Ticking · Cam timing codes
What we do
We confirm it and replace the timing components as one job.
Do you work on Ford trucks and diesels?
Yes — F-150s, Super Dutys and every Power Stroke. They have their own pages with each generation's common problems.
