faclng multiple niggling issues on my 2020 ford ecosport petrol at

The wiper washer fluid stops coming out randomly. The washer fluid reservoir is always full. I can hear the motor working but the fluid doesn’t come out.

BHPian nik0502 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Hi guys,

I am having couple of issues with my 2020 Ecosport Titanium Plus AT. I am planning a visit to Ford Service Center but the issues are mostly random hence looking for your inputs. I am afraid that I might not be able to replicate the issue and the service centre will dismiss my concerns.

Issue No. 1:

One of the horn stops working randomly and the horn sounds more like those on Activa’s. The issue happens randomly and I have been able to record it on video. I am assuming it would require a replacement.

Issue No. 2:

The wiper washer fluid stops coming out randomly. The washer fluid reservoir is always full. I can hear the motor working but the fluid doesn’t come out. Sometimes restarting the car fixes the problem. I couldn’t find fluid leak anywhere too. I don’t have this recorded and I think if I am not able to reproduce the issue the service centre will not do much but say they have checked everything and everything is okay.

Issue No. 3:

Rattling sound from the front. It happens when I am going through a bump, potholes or a speed breaker. This sound appeared after the last service. The car was damn silent before the service. First I thought it was the bumper however on a closer inspection the sound appears to be somewhere around the engine bay. It’s like some plastic bits are loose.

Have any of the fellow members faced these issues and how do they get rectified.

On a side note I had a really scary incident on a recent road trip. The car was driving absolutely fine for first 50-60 kms however after that I started to feel judder and vibration at steering wheel every time I was applying brakes. I thought it’s due to the discs. However the judder became violent as I progressed. I stopped for a quick inspection and the discs were absolutely smooth. I couldn’t understand why I am feeling the judder if the discs are fine. I decided to check the wheel nuts. To my surprise three out of four wheels were loose. I was able to tighten the nuts using the wheel spanner and the issue disappeared. Anyone else faced this?

Here’s what BHPian bigben had to say on the matter:

I have faced these 2 issues as well in my Ecosport. I am yet to take it to the service center for rectification. The horn though, touch wood has been working fine for the last 2 months. Lets hope it stays that way. The windshield spray, the rear one works but the one in the front seems to hardly spray any water. Will get that checked when I visit the service center for the recall.

Here’s what BHPian SaiSW had to say on the matter:

Can confirm two of those issues are also present in my Aspire. My car’s horn was perfect for a long time until a month ago when I had to drive down bad mountain roads amidst extremely heavy rains. Since then, randomly one of the horns stop working even when it hasn’t rained for weeks, and it sounds even worse than an Activa, it sounds so embarrassing that I stop using it when that happens. After parking the car for a couple of hours, it gets back to normal.

And the wiper issue is also there, although i mentioned it to the SA during my last service and since then it hasn’t happened a lot. He said that he adjusted he washer lines inside the bonnet a bit and that fixed it.

Here’s what BHPian ObsessedbyFiat had to say on the matter:

I too have this irritating sound in my 2014 EcoSport TDCi. Not sure if it the same case in your car, however, in my case it’s the assembly which holds the radiator. It has some play which causes this sound. I used a couple of zip ties and secured it. That jugaad only last a few kilometres. Since then I have left it as it is.

Here’s what BHPian utkarshgoel had to say on the matter:

I have the exact same problem in my 2017 Ecosport. I have visited multiple times FASC but they have not been able to solve it. Since it happens randomly, it makes diagnosing all the more difficult. I am thinking to replace the horn which stops working (its driver side one).
