2016 Ford C-Max Energi Check Engine Light Codes
The most common check engine light codes for a 2016 Ford C-Max Energi relate to oxygen sensors (P0130–P0167 range), EV system charging or inverter codes, and emissions system components. Ignoring these codes can lead to reduced electric range, higher fuel consumption, catalytic converter damage, or costly hybrid battery work. At Coggin Ford Jacksonville our specialists diagnose the exact code, explain potential repair costs and consequences, and recommend preventive actions to preserve performance and resale value.
