Does the 2012 Ecoboost have the active cylinder management where it shuts down cylinders when cruising? I only ask because mine seems to hesitate then jump when I get into the throttle then another when the turbos spool up... BTW the turbo lag is killing me. If I'd done my research I woulda just bought a 5.0. I'm getting a little over 12 mpg on average. The majority of my driving is on the highway at 75-80 mph and with 35" tires so I'm not real surprised at the crappy mpg.
Hi, take it to a shop or dealer to have the drivability issues fixed.
