A Genuinely Major, Current Recall Worth Checking If You Have a Diesel — Ford EcoSport Exhaust System
This is worth checking directly against your registration if you own a diesel EcoSport: Ford has confirmed a major, current recall (reference 24E06, part of the broader KBA 14555R campaign) addressing a design-related weakness in the Diesel Particulate Filter material that can develop hairline cracks over its service life. This isn't a minor administrative recall — a cracked DPF lets unburned particulate matter bypass the filter, which can cause a failed MOT emissions test and potential Clean Air Zone compliance issues. The recall covers over 1.2 million Ford diesel vehicles worldwide across nearly the entire range — including the EcoSport — built between 2014 and 2023.
