Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2013 model year cars.
- 1.0 EcoBoost Wet Belt FailureSerious
The oil-bath timing belt is extremely sensitive to skipped servicing or the wrong oil. Once it sheds material, rubber debris clogs the oil pickup strainer, causing oil starvation and total engine failure.
- 1.0 EcoBoost Cooling ("Ecoboom")Serious
Early facelift EcoBoost cars used a brittle nylon degas hose (Recall 14S06) that could split without warning. Later models can still leak from the degas bottle (expansion tank) seams or the revised hose connections.
- Powershift Transmission JudderSerious
The same dry-clutch Powershift risk carried into the facelift years, where shunting urban use and missed maintenance accelerate clutch and mechatronic failures.
