2021 Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid Check Engine Light Codes

In Jacksonville, Coggin Ford Jacksonville frequently sees several common diagnostic codes for the 2021 Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid. Typical trouble codes include oxygen sensor faults (which reduce fuel economy and can damage emissions systems), EV battery or charging-system alerts that can limit electric range, and catalyst efficiency codes that, when ignored, may lead to expensive converter replacement. Each code signals a different urgency and repair cost: a sensor swap or connector repair is typically lower cost and fast, while battery pack or catalytic repairs are more significant and require OEM parts and certified technicians. Choosing Coggin Ford Jacksonville ensures accurate code interpretation, access to factory parts, and diagnostic equipment calibrated specifically for Ford hybrid systems.
