Why is the engine light in my Ford EcoSport on?

I have a Ford EcoSpot 2019. Recently, the engine light has been turning on sporadically while I'm driving. It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the car, but I'm wondering if this is something I should worry about and get checked out by a mechanic. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It could be a simple issue with the gas cap not being closed tightly enough. Check to make sure it's fully closed and see if the light turns off after a bit more driving. If not, it's best to take it to a mechanic to get it checked out just in case.

I had a similar experience with my Ford EcoSport last year. Turns out the sensor for the engine light needed to be replaced. Definitely worth getting it checked out sooner rather than later to avoid any potential issues down the road.

It could be a range of issues causing the engine light to turn on. If you're hesitant to take it to a mechanic, try using a code reader to see the specific error code being thrown. This will give you a better idea of what could be causing the issue.

I had the same issue with my Ford EcoSport. It ended up being an oxygen sensor that needed to be replaced. It's best to get it checked out as soon as possible before any other components are affected by the issue.
