I purchase a new 2018 ford ecosport. on 12/22/19 the vehicle would not start. there was auxiliary power inside but no response from the engine even after receiving a jump. after approximately 30 minutes the car started. on 12/23/19 i had a ford dealer check the vehicle. they claimed it was the battery and replaced it. however, on 1/3/20 (11 days later) while sitting at a light in traffic the vehicle stopped and would not restart. once again there was auxiliary power but no engine response. i had to get pushed out of the middle of the street in traffic. i took the vehicle to a different dealer (i was out of town) they insisted that it was the battery (eventhough it was replaced only days prior) and suggested i disable the auto stop/start feature and turn off the automatic headlights. i am concerned that ford is missing something. after reading other similar accounts i was compelled to report my experiences. i am afraid that there is a safety hazard in this vehicle which may cause bodily injury and/or death. please help us prevent a tragedy
