We use OEM diagnostic procedures and genuine Ford parts, which maintain vehicle integrity and preserve warranty coverage. Choosing our dealership means transparency — we’ll explain each code, outline repair options, and show how prompt, correct repairs deliver immediate savings by avoiding repeat trips and long-term savings by preventing major component damage. If a simple software reset is appropriate after repair, we document it and provide follow-up recommendations. To protect your vehicle’s longevity and value, schedule service with our team and review current service specials before you arrive.

2014 Ford Fiesta Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for a 2014 Ford Fiesta include P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple cylinder misfire), P0171/P0174 (system too lean), and P0133 (O2 sensor slow response).
