Oil Question

I currently own a '19 Edge 2.0, and a '20 Ecosport 2.0. The Edge calls for 5W-30 oil while the Ecosport calls for 5W-20. I use all Mobil 1 full synthetic oil. The question is whether the 2 different viscosities could be interchanged. My wife bought oil for me the change her Ecosport and bought 5W-30 by mistake. Can I use this in her Ecosport without doing any damage?

They don't have the same engine.  Ford specifies 5W-30 for turbo motors and 5W-20 for normally aspirated motors.

 

You won't hurt anything putting 5W-30 in your Ecosport.  Look in the Owner's Manual, only the US specifies 5W-20, for CAFE reasons, outside the US it's 5W-30.  I put 5W-30 in all of my Fords.
