What are the potential causes of the oil leak in my Ford EcoSport?

I recently noticed drops of oil on my garage floor and can't figure out where it's coming from. My Ford EcoSport is relatively new and I'm not sure what could be causing this issue. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Samantha, an oil leak in a newer car can be quite concerning. There could be a few possible causes, such as a loose oil drain plug, a puncture in the oil pan, or a faulty gasket. I recommend taking your EcoSport to a certified mechanic to have it checked out and properly diagnosed.

Hey Samantha, I've had a similar issue with my Ford EcoSport before. In my case, it turned out to be a faulty oil filter that was causing the leak. It's a good idea to regularly check and replace your oil filter every 5,000 miles to avoid any potential issues.

Hi Samantha, a common cause of oil leaks in Ford EcoSports is a worn out oil pan gasket. This can happen over time and with regular use. If that's the case, it's a relatively simple and inexpensive fix at the mechanic.
