2024 Ford Escape Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2024 Ford Escape should be done with a clear diagnosis, not as a quick fix.

At Bill Estes Ford Brownsburg in Brownsburg, IN, our factory-trained technicians use Ford OEM scan tools to read stored codes, clear history when appropriate, and verify repairs so the light stays off for the right reasons. Choosing our dealership guarantees OEM parts, documented repairs, and warranty protection—repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid. We focus on transparency: you’ll receive an itemized estimate, a technician walkthrough, and honest recommendations that prioritize safety and long-term savings. We also offer convenient express lanes, comfortable waiting areas, and service financing to help you get necessary work done today and pay over time. Before leaving, we retest systems to confirm the reset is permanent and educate you on indicators to watch for.

2024 Ford Escape Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for the 2024 Ford Escape range from minor issues like P0440 (evaporative emission system leak) and loose fuel cap notifications to more serious codes such as P0300 (random/multiple misfires) or P0420 (catalyst system efficiency).
