A judge denied Ford's efforts at getting a case involving failing EcoBoost engines dismissed
Ford is still facing a lawsuit over the 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine despite issuing a recall for it. The council representing the plaintiffs is now consulting more Ford owners of models with the same engine. The judge could still throw out the case at a later stage. Late in 2023, the NHTSA began investigating reports of a defect in Ford 's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine. By January of this year, the automaker issued a recall of almost 140,000 cars.
Having issued the recall, Ford moved to dismiss the suit. of the named plaintiffs have taken advantage of the 2023 recall, reports CarComplaints.com. According to the judge, that argument isn't sufficient for dismissal since the plaintiffs are also seeking damages for diminution in value of their vehicles, towing costs, rental car costs, and other out-of-pocket expenses.
