Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can suffer from brake fluid leaks, which can lead to reduced braking performance or brake failure if not addressed.

Brake pedal feel

Air in the hydraulic lines or worn components can cause a spongy or soft brake pedal feel, affecting braking efficiency.

Fuel injection issues

The GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) system can experience carbon buildup on intake valves, potentially leading to rough idling or reduced performance.

Engine knocking

The in-line 4-cylinder configuration can sometimes develop engine knocking, especially if using lower-octane fuel than recommended.

Cooling system problems

These engines can be prone to cooling system issues, such as thermostat failures or radiator leaks, which can lead to overheating.

Electrical issues

Modern vehicles with advanced electronics, like the Ford Transit Connect, can experience electrical faults, including problems with sensors and wiring harnesses.

Turbocharger problems (if equipped)

If the model is equipped with a turbocharger, issues such as boost leaks or turbo failure can occur, affecting engine performance.

Transmission concerns

Although not directly related to the engine, the transmission in these vehicles can exhibit problems such as rough shifting or slipping, impacting overall drivability.
