2015 Ford Fiesta 5 HB FWD

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Fiesta. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the transmission clutch had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 37,600.

Swollen Lug Nuts

The clutch pedal sticks to the floor after driving on the highway for 30 minutes or so. The clutch pedal can be brought back up by lifting it with my foot. The clutch pedal has a very minimal amount of travel in it when this happens and can be pumped to bring back normal operation for a few minutes. There doesnt seem to be a fluid leak in the system. My local dealer inspected the clutch slave cylinder and it appeared to be operational and otherwise fine. The risk this poses is that i need to be able to shift gears and otherwise operate the car properly in case of an emergency. a sticking clutch pedal prevents me from being able to select the correct gear for my road speed, and it affects the ability for a controlled takeoff from a stop, this potentially affects my ability to react to an emergency as well. The dealer was not able to recreate the problem because it takes too long or a certain set of circumstances to replicate the issue. The car does not have a warning light or message for this.

Since early Friday morning on 11/5/21, my Ford Fiesta has been having an intermittent involuntary braking issue associated with all of the lights flickering on/off and the gauges swiping back/forth on the cluster/dashboard while driving. I also noticed the “Hill Assist Control” alert pops up on the radio monitor with the involuntary braking. As well as the sound of the door being open with the key in the ignition will come on while the involuntary braking occurs. Additionally, the windows were resisting being rolled up while driving but will roll up when in park. I also noticed this braking problem tends to reoccur with accelerating quickly or making a turn. On friday afternoon on 11/5/21, I had cautiously drove with my hazards on, while the intermittent involuntary braking problem continued to persist, to my local Autonation Ford to ask about a safety recall associated with this involuntary braking problem and they told me there was no safety recall associated with this problem at this time. They told me that I would need to pay $1100 to replace and reprogram my cluster/dashboard computer. This is unacceptable given the inherent safety risks associated with this intermittent and involuntary braking problem. I believe I should be able to replace and reprogram my cluster/dashboard computer for free due to the safety risks. Thank you for reviewing and considering my proposal of my safety issue.

I am having issues with the fueling system each and every time I will put gas in my car will shut off after it is turned on.

Transmission is stuck in gear and car will no longer operate. Check engine light is on as well as all other warning lights. This is the 3rd repair for the transmission.

CAR DISPLAYED LOW COOLANT ON DISPLAY. ADDED COOLANT AND COOLANT LIGHT WENT AWAY. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR COULD NOT DRIVE FASTER THAN 20 MPH. TOOK TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE COOLING SYSTEM HAD OVERHEATED AND CAUSED THE OIL TO END UP IN THE CYLINDER. THE COOLING SYSTEM OVERHEATED 1.5 YEARS AGO AND HAD THE THERMOSTAT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW VEHICLE HAS 71,000 MILES AND OUT OF WARRANTY. FORD DEALER SAYS THAT THE WHOLE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT HAS 1.0L ECOBOOST ENGINE WHICH APPARENTLY HAS MANY ISSUES.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD GOING TO THE HOSPITAL IT STARTED CUTTING OUT AND WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS AND WOULD NOT GO. sO WE CALLED THE ROADSIDE SERVICE & HAD TO HAVED IT TOWED TO THE SHOP. NOW 3 WEEKS LATER IT IS COVERED BY A RECALL AND EXTENDED COVERAGE BUT IT MAY TAKE UP TO A YEAR TO GET THE PARTS, AND WE NEED A CAR. This is supposed to be due to a problem with these particular model of Ford. Well then they should at least provide us with a car until this one is fixed.

THIS CAR WAS GOING DOWN THE STREET AND WOULD NOT SHIFT AND STOPPED GOING AND WE HAD TOO GET IT TOWED TO THE FORD HOUSE FOR REPAIRS,

ON APRIL 11, 2021, THE 2015 FORD FIESTA I WAS DRIVING UNINTENTIONALLY ACCELERATED INTO A COMMERCIAL BUILDING AT A SHOPPING MALL. THE CAR HAD TWO INCIDENTS OF ACCELERATING WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKE PRIOR TO THE FINAL INCIDENT WHERE THE CAR RAN INTO A WALL AND WAS TOTALED. THE CAR HAD NEVER EXHIBITED ANY BRAKING OR ACCELERATION ISSUES BEFORE THIS DAY. THE FIRST INCIDENT, I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO GO OVER A SPEED BUMP. AS I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE, THE CAR JERKED FORWARD THEN STOPPED. IT DROVE AS NORMAL THROUGH TRAFFIC FOR THE NEXT 8 MILES. I WAS CLOSE TO MY DESTINATION, AS I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR SPED UP AND STOPPED WHEN I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. AGAIN, THE CAR DROVE FINE FOR THE NEXT MILE. I WAS VERY AWARE WHILE I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE. NEITHER THE BRAKE OR ACCELERATOR WAS APPLIED AS I WAS COASTING INTO A SPACE. AS I APPLIED THE BRAKE, THE CAR SPED UP, JUMPED THE CURB AND ACCELERATED INTO THE SIDE OF A BUILDING. ACCORDING TO A WITNESS AND SUPPORTED BY PATTERN OF SKID MARKS, AT ONE POINT THE CAR WAS AIRBORNE. WITH THE DISTANCE OF ABOUT 15 FEET BETWEEN THE CURB AND WALL, THERE WAS LITTLE TIME TO REACT. IN MY ATTEMPT TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, I INJURED MY THUMB. MY PASSENGER SUSTAINED VARIOUS BRUISES FROM THE SEAT BELT AND THE FRONT DASHBOARD. NEITHER THE DRIVER NOR PASSENGER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. ACCORDING TO THE BLACK BOX REPORT, THE CAR ACCELERATED FROM 0-100% IN THE FINAL 5 SECONDS AND THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED AT 10%-55%, YET THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. I DID NOT REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE UNTIL AFTER THE CAR IMPACT, WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY SKID MARKS SHOWN IN PHOTOS. IN AUGUST 2019, FORD MOTOR WAS AWARE OF A TRANSMISSION CLUTCH SHUTTER ISSUE, BUT STILL PROCEEDED WITH SELLING THE CAR TO AN AUCTION. ONE MONTH LATER, I PURCHASED FROM A DEALERSHIP.

CAR DASH LIGHTS UP WITH ALL ALERTS AND THEN TOTALLY LOSES POWER. YOU ARE UNABLE TO PUT CAR INTO ANY GEAR, YOUR LITERALLY STUCK WHEREVER THIS OCCURS. I'VE BEEN TO 3 MECHANICS INCLUDING FORD AUTONATION AND AN ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTIC GARAGE RESULTING IN THE SAME RESULTS " NOTHING" ! IT ALSO SAYS IMMOBILIZER ENABLED SERVICE NOW???

MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS SINCE THE DAY I DROVE MY VEHICLE OFF THE LOT. I MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO BRING IT BACK WITHIN WARRANTY; HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG AND DEPARTED HOME. SINCE THEN, I BROUGHT IT BACK ABOUT 2 MORE TIMES & WAS TOLD AGAIN AND AGAIN, THE TRANSMISSION FELL 'WITHIN WORKING CAPABILITIES'. NOT LONG AFTER, I RECEIVED A RECALL IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION. WHEN I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK AGAIN AND SHOWED THE REPRESENTATIVE(S) THE LETTER, I WAS REASSURED EVERYTHING WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF. I LEFT PAYING A $100 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND NOTHING WAS DONE TO THE VEHICLE. AT THIS POINT, THE VEHICLE ISN'T RELIABLE AT ALL. I'VE ALREADY INVESTED $1,200 INTO FIXING A HVAC BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR ISSUE THAT APPEARED SHORTLY AFTER ITS' PURCHASE. I INFORMED FORD MARGATE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AS WELL; BUT AS MANY TIMES AS I CALL, THE ISSUES GET OVERLOOKED AND FORGOTTEN ABOUT ON THEIR END. I ONLY HAVE 65K MILES ON THE CAR & IT ROLLS BACKWARDS IF I'M ON A HILL. THIS HAPPENS AS SOON AS I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK AND I ANTICIPATE HITTING THE GAS. BEFORE I CAN EVER DO THAT, THE CAR STARTS ROLLING BACKWARDS AS IF IT'S A MANUAL. THE TRANSMISSION CONSISTENTLY SHUTTERS AND THE GEARS DON'T AUTOMATICALLY SHIFT PROPERLY. IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN LOOK INTO THESE ISSUES?

AFTER DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE MILE, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT OPERATE NORMALLY.

AFTER FILLING UP MY TANK, I LEFT THE GAS STATION AND IMMEDIATELY APPROACHED A RED LIGHT. WHEN I CAME TO A STOP, MY ENGINE RPM DIPPED AND MY VEHICLE STALLED OUT. I HAVE NOTICED RPM DIPPING THAT OCCURS WHEN I STOP AT A RED LIGHT, USUALLY AFTER I ADD FUEL. OTHER THAN THIS STALL EVENT REPORTED, I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED ANOTHER, BUT THE RPM DIPS DO OCCUR OFTEN, AGAIN, AFTER ADDING GAS OR FILLING MY TANK. THE DIPPING PERSISTS USUALLY FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES AFTER ADDING FUEL. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO RESTART MY CAR RIGHT AWAY WITH NO TROUBLE. RPM DIPPING WAS OBSERVED AT EACH STOP ON MY WAY HOME. INTENSITY OF THE DIP VARIED.

ON MANY OCCASIONS WHEN MY VEHICLE IN IN MOTION THE CRUISE CONTROL COMES ON WITHOUT ANY PROMPT AND ACCELERATES WHILE TRAVELING ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. THIS DEFECTIVE CRUISE CONTROL HAS CAUSED MYSELF AND MY WIFE TO NEARLY HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY CRUISE CONTROL. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS FAULTY ERROR IS TO IMMEDIATELY ENGAGE THE FOOT BRAKE PEDAL BUT THIS MAY HAPPEN AGAIN IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.

WHEN YOU PUT GAS IN IT DON'T WANT TO START BACK . AND FOR NO ODD REASON IF YOU SLOW DOWN THE LIGHTS ON INSIDE FLICKERS AND SHUTS CAR COMPLETELY OFF

OCCASIONALLY WHILE DRIVING AND STOPPED AT STOP SIGNALS THE CAR SHUTS OFF. THE CAR ALSO OCCASIONALLY SHUTS OFF WHEN SLOWING DOWN. THE CAR ALWAYS SHUTS OFF SHORTLY AFTER FUELING, THIS MAY OCCUR BETWEEN 1-4 TIMES AFTER FUELING. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN OIL SLOWLY ACCUMULATING AROUND THE ENGINE BLOCK NEAR THE TOP OF THE BLOCK NEAR THE VALVE COVER.

EVERY TIME GAS IS FILL (AND VEHICLE IS OFF), ONCE DONE PUMPING GAS, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT WANT TO START RIGHT AWAY, IT WILL TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS ONLY OCCURS LITERATELY AFTER PUMPING GAS. 1/30/20 WAS THE LAST TIME IT WAS FILLED WITH GASOLINE. BUT EVERY WEEK GAS IS PUMPED IT ALWAYS HAPPENS. THIS STARTED WHEN MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 20,000.00 I BELIEVE, I IMMEDIATELY CALLED AND WAS INFORMED TO CALL A TOLL. I ALSO SPOKE TO THE SALESPERSON AND INFORMED HIM. I WAS INFORMED THEN TO CHANGE GAS TYPE. ALSO BEEN TAKING THE VEHICLE FOR SAME PLACE (FORD) FOR OIL CHANGES, ALL THE SUDDEN THERE IS AN OIL LEAK AS WELL. UNSURE HOW, WHEN EXACTLY IT HAPPENED. IT'F VERY MINOR, BUT INTERESTING BEING THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT THAT OLD. ON ANOTHER NOTE JUST TO INFORM, THE SUSPENSION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT NEEDED TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACE DUE TO BEING FACTORY DEFECTED. AT THE TIME, VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. FOR BOTH ISSUES.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ONE NIGHT AND IN THE MIST OF DRIVING , IT WAS JERKING REALLY BAD AND THE ACCELERATION WAS GOING IN AND OUT .

I DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE BUT 2 MINS DOWN THE STREET AND BACK HOME. ONCE I GOT HOME AND WAS READY TO LEAVE AGAIN IT WOULDN'T START ANYMORE AND NOW I NO LONGER HAVE A CAR AND I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD IT LONG. I TOOK THE CAR TO FORD AND IT WAS STATED THAT IT'S A RECALL ON SOMETHING TO DO DUE WITH MY TRANSMISSION AND ON THE PAPER THE SAME EXACT THINGS THAT I WAS EXPERIENCING WAS ON THE RECALL POSSIBLE SYMPTOMS.

THEY KEEP SAYING NOTHING IS WRONG. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT A CAR SHOULD NEVER STOP UNLESS YOUR FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE.

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 95 AT 70 MILES PER HOUR WHEN MY VEHICLE JUST TURNED OFF. I WAS DRIVING DURING NORMAL CONDITIONS, ON 12/09/2019 IN FLORIDA. ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS REMAINED ON AND THE VEHICLE GAVE NO INDICATIONS THAT THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO CUT OFF. I HAD JUST HAD MY BATTERY TESTED A FEW DAYS PRIOR AND IT WAS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL MY VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE THIS TIME AND THE VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN WHEN I TRIED. IT STALLED A SECOND TIME BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO MERGE BACK INTO TRAFFIC. IT RESTARTED AGAIN AND I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION. I HAVE LOOKED AT THE RECALL LISTS FOR FORD AND THE 2014-2015 FORD FIESTA IS ON THE LIST WITH THE ISSUE MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT RECALL.

WHEN FINISH PUMPING GAS AND START THE CAR THE CAR STARTS TO SHAKE AND STOPS COMPLETELY.

THE VEHICLE HAS A SHUDDER ON TAKEOFF. THE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT ENGAGE INTO GEAR.

FOR ABOUT A YEAR IN A HALF NOW WHEN I PUT GAS IN MY CAR AND GO TO START THE CAR, IT WILL SPUTTER AND SHUT OFF. IT WILL DO THIS FOR ABOUT 5 MINS AFTER GETTING GAS. THEN I WILL DRIVE AWAY. WHEN WAITING TO PULL OUT OF THE GAS STATION IT WILL SHUT OFF. RECENTLY WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK IT WILL SPUTTER A LITTLE RPMS WILL GO FROM 1 TO ALMOST 0. TODAY 9/12/2019 I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO A RED LIGHT AND THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. I COASTED UP TO THE LIGHT PUT IT IN PARK AND STARTED IT AGAIN. IT SPUTTERED AND AS I CAME UP TO THE NEXT RED LIGHT IT DID IT AGAIN. THIS DOES THIS NO MATTER HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE CAR WHEN I FILL UP. THE DEALER WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT CAUSE IT'S NOT UNDER RECALL. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE KIDS IN MY CAR. NOT WHAT I WANT GOING ON WITH THEM IN THE CAR AND IN TRAFFIC DAILY.

WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE ENGINE STALLS WHEN TRYING TO MOVE CAR DOESN'T RESPOND AND DIES. CAR WAS IN A CITY STREET

AS I WAS REVERSE PARKING IN A PARKING LOT MY TRANSMISSION JUST STALLED AND I WAS UNABLE TO GO REVERSE, I HEARD THE REVVING BUT SHE WAS NOT MOVING. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT SHE WAS REVVING BUT DIDN'T MOVE. I SHUT HER OFF HER FIVE MINUTES AFTER THAT AND RESTARTED HER AND I WAS ABLE TO PARK HER. AFTER THIS HAPPENED, LEAVING THE PARKING LOT THE CAR STARTED TO JERK FORWARD AND HAVING A HARD TIME TRANSITIONING INTO THE NEXT GEAR (IT'S AUTOMATIC) IT STALLED AS I WAS SLIGHTLY APPLYING PRESSURE TO ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC IT WAS VERY SCARY. MY CAR HAS 54,000 MILES.

CAR REGULARLY SHUDDERS. ACCELERATION IS A PROBLEM. PROBLEMS OCCUR WHILE DRIVING AND SWITCHING GEARS IN ALL ROAD TYPES ESPECIALLY HILLS.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS OUT OF GEAR DURING NORMAL CITY DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THE CAR COMPLETELY LOCK UP, BECOME UNABLE TO DRIVE, AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME I HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE. I'VE HAD THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER RESTARTED, ONE OF THE CLUTCHES REPLACED, THEN A FEW MONTHS AFTER THAT HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN DUE TO "IMMOBILIZER MALFUNCTION" DESIGN FOR THE CAR IS GREAT BUT THE MECHANICS ARE TERRIBLE.

AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL, THE CAR WILL NOT START FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES. ONCE DRIVING THE RPMS WILL FLUCTUATE RAPIDLY WHILE I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS. THE CAR WILL HAVE TROUBLE ACCELERATING AND THEN SPEED UP AND I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL TO STOP IT. IF I HAVE TO STOP AND START TOO MANY TIMES IN TRAFFIC THIS WILL ALSO CAUSE THE RPMS TO FLUCTUATE AND THEN THE CAR WILL STALL. I HAVE TO THROW IT IN PARK AND THEN TRY TO RESTART REAL FAST AND WHEN I RESTART IT IT ACCELERATES QUICKLY.

MY VEHICLE SLIPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND LEAVE ME COASTING WITH THE ENGINE RACING. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT IS DRIVEN.

THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS VEHICLE HAS LOCKED UP SEVERAL TIMES. WITHIN A WEEK OF PURCHASING THIS 2015 FORD FIESTA IN JANUARY 2016, I HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THE CAR WAS JERKING AND WOULDN'T TAKE THE GAS OR BACK UP. THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR A WEEK AND TOLD ME THAT THEY REPLACED SOME ITEMS WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME FOR MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER TO DRIVE. SINCE THAT DAY, I'VE TAKEN THE CAR BACK SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE. THE TECHNICIANS HAVE STARTED TELLING ME THAT THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR WHEN CLEARLY THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. IT HAS STALLED AND WOULD NOT MOVE AND CARS WERE COMING THAT HAS ALMOST GOTTEN MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER KILLED. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEARLERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND THEY KEEP REFRESHING IT BUT NOTHING CHANGES. I HAVE HAD TO MAKE MY DAUGHTER PARK THE CAR SINCE SHE'S A COLLEGE STUDENT AND PURCHASE HER A NEW VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE AND I CERTAINLY WOULDN'T RECOMMEND ANYONE PURCHASING THIS CAR. FORD HAS BEEN NO HELP IN RESOLVING THIS SITUATION. SHE HAD A CAR ACCIDENT ON A COUNTY STREET ON 8/13/2018 BECAUSE OF THIS VEHICLE'S ISSUES BUT THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH TOTALING THE VEHICLE WHEN BRAKING THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED ON AN INTERSTATE

MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND THERE IS NO REASON FOR IT TO HAVE COME ON. THE CAR HAS 85000 MILES ON IT AND WARRANTY DOESN'T COVER IT. I THINK WE HAVE AN ISSUE HERE OF ITS NOT COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY THROUGH FORD UP TO 65000 MILES. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. IT ONLY COMES ON AND STAYS ON WHEN CAR HOES INTO DRIVE.

MY CAR IS HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES, THE TRANSMISSION WILL OVER REV BUT MY SPEED REMAINS THE SAME OR DECREASES. THE CAR WILL LOSE POWER OVER TIME AND THE PEDAL WILL BECOME SPONGY. THIS HAS BECOME A VERY LARGE INCONVENIENCE AND AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND MY PASSENGER. I WAS ALMOST IN A COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE WHICH WOULD BE DEEMED MY FAULT EVEN THOUGH IT WOULD ME THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONING. WHEN CONTACTING FORD DEARBORN AND PERRY FORD THEY TELL ME THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO OR I CAN PAY A FEE.

MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THE PROBLEMATIC POWER SHIFT DUAL-CLUTCH 6 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT HAS BEEN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TWICE SINCE NOVEMBER 2018 FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES. FORD CLAIMS MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR VEHICLES WITH THIS TRANSMISSION IN THIS RANGE OF YEARS. THEY ARE UNRESPONSIVE TO EXPLAIN WHY I DON'T GET THE EXTENDED COVERAGE WHEN MY VEHICLE CLEARLY QUALIFIES. THERE SHOULD BE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY COVERAGE ON THIS VEHICLE FOR 100K MILES VS 60K MILES. WHEN I ASK ABOUT IT, THEY TELL ME TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA. THE CAR ONLY HAS 53K MILES ON IT. IT HAS SUFFERED FAILED CLUTCHES, WORN INPUT SHAFT BEARINGS, AND PROBABLY A BAD TCM. IT IS IN THE SHOP NOW FOR THE TCM. THE PROBLEMS CAUSE SHUTTERING, LURCHING, POOR ACCELERATION, AND FAILURE TO DOWNSHIFT, WHICH IS DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. ALL THESE THINGS HAPPEN FROM A DEAD STOP OR DECELERATION FOR A TURN, AND ACCELERATION.

DRIVING ALONG AND CAR SHUT OFF HAD IT TOWED TO PEP BOYS AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A CRACK IN CYLINDER VALVE. INFORMED THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX IT AND THEN HAD IT TOWED BUTLER AUTOMOTIVE WHERE IT IS SITTING AS OF 6/25/19.

MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, ENGINE WILL REV, RPM INCREASE, BUT SPEED WON'T CHANGE. THIS IS CAUSED SAFETY ISSUES FOR MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS AS IT IS DIFFICULT TO INCREASE SPEED AND KEEP UP WITH ON GOING TRAFFIC. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

MY FUEL PUMP IS FAILING CAUSING MY CAR TO STALL AT STRANGE TIMES.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ABOUT A YEAR AGO WARNING MY VEHICLE MAY RANDOMLY STALL DUE TO A DEFECT WITH THIS VEHICLE. ABOUT 6 MONTHS LATER I STARTED EXPERIENCING RANDOM STALLS MAINLY WHILE STOPPED AT RED LIGHTS. I HAVE LOST MY RECALL NOTICE AND WHEN I CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER THEY SAID THE VIN ASSOCIATED WITH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. HOWEVER, FORD HAS A PUBLIC RECALL RELATING TO A FUEL PUMP WARNING THE EXACT PROBLEM MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. FORD REFUSES TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE.

REAR LEFT DOOR OPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I STOPPED THE CAR TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND THE DOOR DIDN'T CLOSE ANYMORE. DOOR LATCH IS BROKEN. THERE IS A RECALL 15S16 FOR THE 2011-2014 FIESTAS FOR THIS SAME REASON. IT IS CLEAR THAT 2015 MODELS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY CRITICAL ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO INVESTIGATED IN 2015 FIESTA MODEL SINCE THE ISSUE IS STILL PRESENT FROM SAFETY RECALL WITH NUMBER 15S16. THE DOOR OPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND COULD HAVE INJURED OR KILLED A PERSON. I CONTACTED FORD AND THEY CANNOT CONFIRM THAT MY 2015 FORD WHICH I BOUGHT IN 2014 DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME AFFECTED PART NUMBERS FOR THE DOOR LATCHES AS THE 2011 TO 2014 MODELS.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION SLIPPING ON FIRST GEAR. I ALMOST HAVE A COLLISION DUE TO THE PROBLEM, I WAS READY TO TURN ON A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN THE SLIPPING HAPPEN AND JUST BECAUSE THE OTHER VEHICLE STOP, I DIDN'T HAVE THE COLLISION HEAD ON. SO I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALER FOR REPAIRS, WHEN AFTER DIAGNOSTICS I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THEY NEED TO DO AN OVERHAUL ON THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION AFTER MY VEHICLE IS DRIVING FOR LESS THAN 9500 MILES.

MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I WILL PUSH DOWN THE ACCELERATION AND HEAR MY ENGINE REV, HOWEVER, MY CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS CAUSED SAFETY ISSUES FOR MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FIESTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL TANK WOULD INDICATE A HALF TANK OF FUEL AND AFTER BEING DRIVEN A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD, THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS A FULL TANK OF FUEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OF THE FAILURE DUE TO THE FAILURE JUST STARTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATELY FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. *DT*JB

DRIVER SIDE DOORS. BOTH LATCHES BROKE. THE DOOR WONT STAY CLOSED. THEY OPEN WELL I'M DRIVING. THE BACK DOOR LATCH WENT OUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND THE FRONT WENT OUT 2 DAYS AGO. THEY HAVE A RECALL ON THE SAME MODEL FROM 2012 TO 2014. I BOUGHT MY CAR IN JULY OF 2014 SO I'M PRETTY SURE THEY WERE USING THE SAME LATCHES. IT HAPPEN AT MY HOUSE AT 6601 EUCALYPTUS SPC 358 BAKERSFIELD CA

WHILE STATIONARY AND IN NEUTRAL MY CAR WILL STALL AND NOT TURN BACK ON. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED AND THAT ISN'T THE ISSUE. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS, MOSTLY WHILE WAITING AT LIGHTS. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, I'VE HAD TO PUSH THE CAR OUT OF AN INTERSECTION, THROUGH A LIGHT. THE CAR WILL NOT TURN ON UNTIL AN HOUR OR MORE HAS PAST. THIS HAPPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME ON SEPTEMBER 2ND 2018. I TOOK THE CAR TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT OR CORRECT THE ISSUE. SINCE THEN IT'S HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES.

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR. IT WILL FROM TIME TO TIME STALL OUT. NOW IT CRANK BUT WON'T START UP. YOU CAN BE DRIVING OR IDLE AND THE CAR SHAKES AND STALLS OUT. DUE TO THIS IT CAUSED MY CAR TO OVERHEAT. MY CAR WILL CRANK BUT NOT MOVE AT ALL. THE OTHER ISSUE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IT RAN HOT. SO HOT TO THE POINT THAT IT CRACK THE RADIATOR HOSE. I REPLACED. THE CAR WOULD RUN HOT IF YOU SAT IDLE WHILE DRIVING FOR TOO LONG.

THE CAR WILL STUTTER EVERY TIME AFTER FUELING UP AND SOMETIMES STALL WHILE PULLING OUT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING DEFECT SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALERS ATTENTION YEARS AGO AND THEY DID NOTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE FOLLOWED THERE REFUELING INSTRUCTIONS PER THERE MANUAL SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR AND THIS MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL, THIS DEFECT CREATES A VERY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITION.

MY CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD AND HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED 6 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEN IT HAD THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE REPLACED - NOW I ALWAYS TAKE MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS : MY CAR BROKE DOWN 2 WEEKS AGAIN AMD I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER - THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY FOR A NEW BATTERY IN ORDER FOR THEM TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR $300 IT COST ME ( I JUST REPLACED THE BATTERY IN MY CAR 6 MONTHS AGO), BRIGHT CAR HOME AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON( I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH A MANAGER AT THIS POINT AND THE MANAGER IN CHARGE TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD GET IT FIXED -$73 IT COST ME. ( I WAS CHARGED ONLY FOR THE PART-NO LABOR ) BRIGHT CAR HOME ON THURSDAY AND CAR WAS MAKING A NOISE SO I TEXTED THE MANAGER AND HE SAID IF IT WAS STILL SAFE TO DRIVE THEN DO SO AND BRING IT IN ON MONDAY. IT BROKE DOWN THAT SUNDAY AND WAS TOWED INTO DEALER. NOW THE ENGINE IS RUINED AND THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY FOR IT WHEN IT WAS THEIR NEGLECT THAT CAUSED THE ENGINE TO BLOW. IT WAS THE TIMING BUILT - WHEN THEY FINALLY REALIZED THAT IT WAS TOO LATE. I WAS NOT CHARGED FOR THE TIMING BELT EITHER. I TAKE MY CAR ONLY TO CHAPMAN FORD 9371 ROOSEVELT BLVD 19114

IN THE PAST ONE YEAR EVERY TIME I REFUEL MY CAR WORKS WEIRD FOR A COUPLE OF MILES. WHILE I'M DRIVING AND STOPS AT INTERSECTIONS OR WHATEVER REASONS, IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE WANTS TO STOP (RPM DROPS TO/BELOW 500). AFTER A FEW MILES THE PROBLEM IS GONE UNTIL THE NEXT REFUELING. ALL SYSTEM IS NORMAL AS PER THE COMPUTER / DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSTICS, AND I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THE REASON.

EVER SINCE I'VE HAD MY CAR THE TRANSMISSION FEELS LIKE ITS GOING OUT IT JERKS REALLY HARD WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE GAS TO TRY TO TAKE OFF.

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN STALLING OUT SOON AFTER FUELING AND REQUIRING 3-5 MINUTES BEFORE BEING ABLE TO STAR THE VEHICLE. OFTEN TIMES AFTER FUELING THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START BACK UP RIGHT AWAY. IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS, I'VE BEEN SEEING THIS ISSUE PROGRESS EVEN AFTER SPEAKING WITH AND GETTING A DIAGNOSIS FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS. MY 2015 FORD FIESTA HAS STALLED OUT ON ME WHILE DRIVING 4 TIMES! I CAN LITERALLY BE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THE BATTERY AND ENGINE LIGHTS TURN ON AND MY VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF. THIS WAS A PREVIOUS RECALL AN I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET ANY SOLID RESPONSES AS TO WHETHER OR NOT MY VEHICLE STILL QUALIFIES FOR THIS RECALL. THIS ISSUE IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND THE FACT THAT FORD IS NOT GIVING SOLID ANSWERS AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THEY WILL FIX IT IS BEYOND ME. I STILL HAVE 2 YEARS LEFT ON MY WARRANTY AND THEY ARE STILL GIVING ME A HARD TIME.

VEHICLE STALLS AT START UP AFTER GAS IS PUT IN CAR, ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND STALLS WHEN STOPPED WHILE FOOT ON BREAK AND STALLS AT TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH SIDE ROADS AND HIGHWAYS. HAS HAPPENED A HANDFUL OF TIMES. ENGINE LIGHT TURNS OFF FOR A COUPLE DAYS THEN TURNS BACK ON AND STAYS FOR MONTHS AT A TIME

EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION, WHILE MY CAR IS AT AN IDLE ANY TIME WITHIN DRIVING A MILE THE IDLE DROPS LIKE THE ENGINE WANTS TO CUT OFF OR STALL. AFTER DRIVING A MILE IT SEEMS FINE AND NO OTHER PROBLEMS UNTIL THE NEXT FILL UP. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FILL UP. TRIED LEAVING THE GAS NOZZLE IN THE FILL HOLE FOR UP TO 10 SECONDS AND IT DOESN'T HELP.

6 SPPED TRANSMISSION FAILS TO START UP. I HAVE TO PLACE THE IGNITION BACK INTO THE KEY LOCATION ON DASH TO START CAR. ALSO, THERE ARE EXHAUST FUMES COMING INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR WHEN I USE THE HEATER FAN,

TAKATA RECALL ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 2018, MY HUSBAND AND I HAD OUR CAR TOWED TO FRIENDLY FORD. IT BROKE DOWN WHILE DRIVING 35 MILES AN HOUR. IT HAD LESS THAN 21,000 MILES ON IT. OUR SERVICE ADVISER SAID WOULD BE ABOUT FRIDAY OR SATURDAY OF THAT WEEK BEFORE WE COULD GET A DIAGNOSIS. HE INITIALLY TOLD US THAT THERE WAS NO MORE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY LEFT ON THE CAR (IT HAD EXPIRED ON JUNE OF 2018), BUT THAT IT PROBABLY WOULD BE COVERED WITH THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY SO WE LEFT THE CAR AT FRIENDLY FORD. HE DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE BELT JUMPED 45 DEGREES WHICH CAUSED IT TO GET CAUGHT IN THE PULLEY OF THE TIMING BELT AND THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I CALLED THE FORD CORPORATION AND WAS TOLD THAT IF IT WAS NOT COVERED BY A WARRANTY THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO FURNISH A CUSTOMER SATISFACTION WARRANTY ESPECIALLY WITH SUCH A LOW MILEAGE ON THE CAR, BUT WHEN I CALLED BACK TO ASKED THEM ABOUT IT, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING AVAILABLE. WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR IT ONLY HAD 10,093 MILES ON IT AND WE DIDN'T EVEN PUT 11,000 MILES ON IT BEFORE ALL OF THIS HAPPENED. AFTER WE HAD IT TOWED TO AUTO AIR AND MORE, THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND FOUND THAT SAME PROBLEM. WE WERE TOLD THAT THIS WAS THE THIRD FORD FIESTA THAT HAD HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT OURS WAS BY FAR THE WORST CASE. FRIENDLY FORD TOLD US THAT THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY THE TIMING JUMPED 45 DEGREES BUT THERE HAS TO BE AN REASON WHY IT JUMPED. A CAR WITH LESS THAN 21,000 MILES DOES NOT JUMP ON IT'S OWN WITHOUT SOME REASON FOR IT. IT HAPPENED REAL FAST TOO.

MULTIPLE ISSUES: THE AIR BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR FAILED AND IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON ALL FIESTAS AND FORD REFUSES TO FIX WITHOUT CHARGING $800. IT FAILED AT 37,000 MILES, 1000 MILES OVER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. ADDITIONALLY, THE SLIDE PINS ON THE BREAK CALIPERS FREEZE OFTEN AND NEED TO BE GREASED TWICE A YEAR IN ORDER TO PREVENT BREAKS BEING STUCK ON.

THE DOOR LOCK ON THE REAR PASSENGER STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT CAME ON ON MY DASH AND THE DOOR CAME OPEN WHILE DRIVING. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO CHECK THE DOOR. I TRIED REPEATEDLY TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT LATCH OR STAY SHUT. I HAD TO RIG THE DOOR CLOSED BY TYING IT OFF INSIDE THE VEHICLE SO I COULD PROCEED HOME FROM WORK. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE SINCE THEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FIESTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO PROPERLY ENGAGE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS AND UPON APPLYING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE PREVIOUS OWNER INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT AND WORSENED ONCE THE CONTACT OBTAINED OWNERSHIP. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WAS NEEDED. TWO DEALERS WERE CONTACTED: CASA FORD (5815 MONTANA AVE, EL PASO, TX 79925, (915) 779-2272) AND CAMELBACK FORD (1330 E CAMELBACK RD, PHOENIX, AZ 85014, (602) 635-7551), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO LOSE POWER, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO ENGAGE, AND THE VEHICLE WOULD ACCELERATE SUDDENLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND REMAINED PARKED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,000.

MY 2015 FORD FIESTA STALLS OUT EVERY TIME AFTER I GET GAS. IT TAKES A COUPLE OF TRIES TO GET IT STARTED UP AGAIN. ONCE I DO GET IT STARTED IT DOES DRIVE JERKY WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION, AND SEEMS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT. AFTER ABOUT DRIVING FOR 15 MINS MOST OF THE TIME MY CAR GOES BACK TO DRIVING NORMAL UNTIL I GET GAS AGAIN. I RECENTLY SAW THE FORD FOCUS HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A FUEL TANK PROBLEM WHICH CAUSED IT STALL OUT AFTER FUELING, THIS SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO MY PROBLEM WITH MY FORD FIESTA.

HIGHWAY MILES UNDER , 100,000 . VEHICLE WOULDN'T START IN YARD, GOT A JUMP, TOOK IT TO CROWN FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, FORD STATED THEY TOOK CARE OF RECALL AND, CAR WAS READY AND I DROVE 3 MILES, CAR STARTED STALING AND WOULDN'T GO UP THE HILL, RETURNED CAR TO FORD, I WAS TOLD THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE- CAR IS JUST 3 YEARS OLD I WAS SOLD A DEFECTIVE CAR.

WHEN I DRIVE THG H ED CAR IT LOSES POWER I HAVE HAD IT SERVICED SERVERAL TIME I WAS THY OLD IT IS AS FACTORY DEFECT

TAKATA RECALL" AS I DON'T HAVE NO WHERE'S TO GET THIS CAR FIX YET MORE ISSUES ANOTHER PROBLEM TO ADD IS WHEN GOING PUT GAS IN THE TANK AT FIRST FUEL WAS COMING OUT LIKE IT US FULL HAVE HI LD THE PUMP UPSIDE DOWN THAN UNDER MY DASH BOARD WE HAD A SEVER RAIN STORM WHEN I GOT IN TO DRIVE UP WHEN LET UP WATER WAS RUNNING DOWN THE HAD AND BREAK PEDDLE AND I HAVE FILL VIOLENT UP 2X IN LESS 5 WEEKS I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S GOING PAST 2 WEEKS OFF AND ON SMELLS BURNING SMELL LIKE FUEL NOT ALL THE TIME THIS WAS WHEN I WAS DRIVING AND THE WINDOW WIPERS THEY GO FAST BUT LIKE WASN'T WORKING WELL WHEN TANNING MORE THAN A LITTLE RAIN AS YOU HAVE ALL OTHER ISSUES LISTED BAILY FORD'S WROTE THE DON'T WANT ME THERE AND REFUSED ME SERVICE BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING 2 HALF YEARS JUST TELL ME IN AUGUST MY WARRANTY RAN OUT NOT MY ISSUES 19,001 DOLLARS CAR THEN THERE SEEMS MY STEERING WHEEL HAS SLOP ON IT AND HAVE ISSUES ISSUES FROM DAY ONE JUST DON'T GET AND BECAUSE OF THESE ISSUES NO GARAGES WANT TO TOUCH IT ONE BECAUSE TO MUCH TO FIX ANDBTIME THEY DON'T HAVE THE MAN POWER HEAD TOLD CHEAPER TO GET ANOTHER NEW CAR

MANY TIMES, MY CAR DOES NOT DOWN SHIFT AFTER BEING IN A PASSING GEAR AND THEN LETTING OFF THE GAS. IT STAYS AT 5,000 RPM FOR A FEW SECONDS. JULY, 2018, MY CAR WAS STOPPED AS I WAS WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. AS I PRESSED ON THE GAS TO TURN LEFT, MY CAR SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL. BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS WEREN'T ON, MY CAR WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BY AN APPROACHING CAR. SEPTEMBER 3, 2018 MY CAR WAS STOPPED, I PUT IT INTO REVERSE TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPOT. WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR SHIMMIED AND MOVED FORWARD INSTEAD OF REVERSE.

EVER SINCE I GOT THE CAR, WHEN I PUT FUEL IN IT, AND TURN IT ON, IT'LL STALL IF I'M STOPPED OR AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT. IT'LL DO IT FOR THE WHOLE DAY AFTER I PUT GAS IN IT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF PRIOR TO FILLING IT IS EMPTY, HALF TANK OR FULL TANK. IF I SIT AT A LIGHT LONG ENOUGH AFTER FILLING, IT TURNS OFF.

REAR PASSENGER DOOR LATCH FAILED. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE LATCH FOR 2014 FORD FIESTAS, BUT NOT THE 2015. THE DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE, OR STAY CLOSED. THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE TIME, THIS WAS ALSO THE LEAST USED DOOR ON THE VEHICLE. I AM JUST GRATEFUL MY 4 YR OLD DAUGHTER WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAR, AND THAT IT DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING.

EVERY SINGLE TIME I STOP TO PUT GAS IN MY CAR I TURN MY CAR OFF PUMP MY GAS AND ONCE I CRANK MY CAR BACK UP FOR AT MY CAR DIES AND I HAVE TO TURN MY IGNITION OFF THEN RESTART MY CAR. AND THEN MY CAR WILL START TO FLUTTER LIKE IT'S HAVING TROUBLE GETTING GAS TO GO INTO THE RIGHT PLACE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FIESTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS FAILURES WITH THE TRANSMISSION, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, AND BRAKE PADS. ALSO, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE OVER 50 MPH, THE RPMS INCREASED INDEPENDENTLY, AND THE VEHICLE JERKED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILURE CAUSED THE INTERIOR LIGHTING, DOOR LIGHTS, HORN, AND THE ALARM SYSTEM TO FAIL. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO UNABLE TO LOCK OR UNLOCK THE DOORS WITH THE KEY. FURTHERMORE, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED AND THE CONTACT HAD TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT. LASTLY, THE MOTOR FAN ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 25,000.

I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO STUTTERING AND INCORRECT SHIFTING FROM MY TRANSMISSION. EACH TIME THEY SAY THEY RESET THE ENGINE THEN TEST IT AND CANT FIND A PROBLEM. A FEW WEEKS LATER MY VEHICLE IS ACTING UP AGAIN AND I REPEAT THE STEPS. I HAVE FINALLY GIVEN UP TRYING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE WITH THE DEALER AND AM CONTACTING YOU DIRECTLY. I HAVE MY TWO KIDS IN THIS CAR AND IT IS FRIGHTENING TO THINK THAT I MAY BE DRIVING DOWN THE FREE WAY AND HAVE THE TRANSMISSION JUST CUT OUT ON ME. THEY KNOW IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR AS WELL AS AN ISSUE WITH OTHER MAKES AND MODELS. THEY REPLACED MY BROTHERS FOCUS FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE BUT REFUSE TO ACT IN REGARDS TO MY CAR. I AM HONESTLY JUST SICK OF IT AND WANT MY CAR FIXED OR REPLACED.

THE POWER STEERING ASSIST STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY AND CAR SHOWS A WARNING LIGHT FOR POWER STEERING ASSIST. CAR HAS 88,000 MILES ON IT. VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AT ANY SPEED BUT MOST ESPECIALLY AT LOW SPEEDS

TAKATA RECALL. MY CARS TRANSMISSION IS NOT WORKING WELL.

BAD WATER PUMPS AND A BAD TRANSMISSION CAR LEAKS HAD WATER PUMP REPLACED AND THE TRANSMISSION STALLED ON ME TWICE TRYING TO LEAVE A PARKING LOT TO GET ON THE MAIN HIGHWAY ALMOST GOT ME HIT BY ANOTHER CAR NOT HAPPY WITH THE CAR PUMP IS LEAKING AGAIN AND HAD IT REPLACED 10000 MILES AGO

TRANSMISSION WAS SHUTTERING. I WAS IN BELIEF THIS WAS A WARRANTY ISSUE AS OUR COMPANY HAS HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER FIESTAS

CAR IS TWO YEARS OLD, ONE PERSON DRIVER, GOT IN CAR AND WENT TO SHUT DOOR. HANDLE BROKE RIGHT OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON, ALL PLASTIC. NEED WHOLE NEW DOOR $498, NOT INCLUDING LABOR. FORD DEALERSHIP OR CORPORATE DID NOT CARE AT ALL OF COMMON SENSE THIS IS SHODDY WORKMANSHIP. STUCK, WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FIESTA. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALLAN VIGIL FORD LINCOLN (6790 MT ZION BLVD, MORROW, GA 30260) WHERE THE CLUTCH WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT FAILED TO ACCELERATE ONCE AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COURTESY FORD (1636 DOGWOOD DR SE, CONYERS, GA 30013) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND THROTTLE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, AND THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE FUEL INJECTION VALVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND STATED THAT THE CONTACT SHOULD KEEP THE RECEIPTS IN CASE OF A RECALL. NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7.

VEHICLE HESITATES AND SPUTTERS WHEN TAKING OFF ON CITY ROADS, WHEN STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT OR MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN INTO TRAFFIC. REAL SCARY TO PULL OUT IN FRONT OF TRAFFIC, WHEN YOU COULD LOSE POWER. VERY STRESSFUL TO DRIVE. MISSES WHILE DRIVING ALSO. TCM HAS BEEN FLASHED. REPLACED. CLUTCH JUST REPLACED. OVERHEATING LIGHT COMES ON AND CAR LOSES POWER: ON CITY STREET, USUALLY WHEN STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. DANGEROUS.! HAS DONE MULTIPLE TIMES. 3RD TIME INTO DEALER FOR OVERHEATING. LAST TIME WHEN, PULLED OVER, AFTER LOSING POWER, IN CITY TRAFFIC, HOOD WAS RAISED TO CHECK FAN, AND THE FAN WAS RUNNING BUT THIS IS WHAT DEALERSHIP REPLACED. OVERHEATING SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN STOPPED IN CITY TRAFFIC. OVERHEATING LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN THERE'S A POWER LOSS. I THINK THE ONLY REASON YOU DON'T HAVE A REAL LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT FORD FIESTAS IS BECAUSE, I DON'T THINK A LOT OF PPL KNOW TO GO HERE TO REPORT PROBLEMS. I JUST FOUND IT.JUST LIKE PRIOR PERSON SAID, IF YOU TRY TO SELL IT, FORD REALLY TAKES ADVANTAGE OF YOU. EVEN THOUGH YOUR CAR IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD, AND YOU HAVE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. THANK YOU. SO YOUR STUCK...

THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE! IT HESITATES WHEN POWER IS EXPECTED. IT WILL DOWNSHIFT AND CAUSE CAR TO LUNGE FORWARD WHILE BRAKING! THIS IS UNCONTROLABLE!! IT LUNGED INTO THE INTERSECTION AT A RED LIGHT (WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE), WITH CARS COMING TOWARD ME FROM BOTH SIDES!! THANK GOD THEY WERE ALL PAYING ATTENTION AND HAD GOOD BRAKES!! I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED!! THIS AND THE HESITATING HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES! I AM VERY NERVOUS EVERY TIME I DRIVE. AFRAID IT WILL CAUSE ME TO WRECK BUT IT IS ALL I HAVE TO DRIVE AND CANNOT GET ANYTHING ELSE WHILE MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS ONE. OTHERWISE , I WOULD NOT DRIVE IT!! *YOUR FORM ONLY ALLOWS ME TO ENTER ONE DATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED BUT IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES! JUST DIFFERENT PLACES AND CIRCUMSTANCES.

HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE REPROGRAMMED AT LEAST 4 TIMES BY 27,000 MILES AND CLUTCH REPLACEMENT. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS IT WILL HESITATE WHEN POWER IS NEEDED AND EXPECTED OR WILL DOWNSHIFT AND CAUSE CAR TO LUNGE AGGRESSIVELY FORWARD WHILE BRAKING. IT SEEMS ALSO COMMON FOR THE MODEL TO STALL ON HIGHWAY AND CLUTCHES REFUSE TO INGAGE IN ANY GEAR. I'VE HAD MANY OF THESE ISSUES OCCURRING AND IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM. I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY AND LIFE EVERY TIME I HAVE TO DRIVE IT.

MY ENGINE BLEW A HEAD GASKET BECAUSE OF THE ENGINE OVERHEATED. THE COOLING SYSTEM OVERHEATED. SO I HAD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER MOTOR FOR MY VEHICLE. THE MOTOR THAT WAS INSTALLED IS DOING THE SAME THING. THE COOLING SYSTEM IS OVERHEATING AND WHEN IT DOES I HAVE TO STOP THE CAR AND WAIT UNTIL IT COOLS OFF. I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS VEHICLE. I AM PAYING FOR A VEHICLE AND CANNOT DRIVE IT A LONG DISTANCE WITHOUT IT OVERHEATING. I DRIVE 50 MILES FROM MY JOB AND CANNOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE THAT LENGTH OF DISTANCES WITHOUT MY GAUGE SHOWING OVERHEATING. ATTACHED TO THIS IS A COPY OF THE INVOICE THAT SHOWS PROOF THAT I HAVE HAD ANOTHER MOTOR INSTALLED AND THE REASON IT WAS INSTALLED.

PULLING INTO DRIVEWAY VEHICLE RUNS HOT. EVERYTHING POINTS TO COOLANT SENSOR READING INCORRECTLY. SEARCH RECALLS AND FIND THAT MY VEHICLE ISN'T EFFECTED YET THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL FOR SAME VEHICLE AND ENGINE SIZE USING THE SAME EXACT SENSOR. WORKED FOR FORD FOR 20 YEARS. HOW AND WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING FOR TO LIE AS TO THE PROBLEM WITH A POTENTIAL FIRE BEING A HEAD GASKET AND NOT THE FAULTY SENSOR THAT IS HAVING TO BE REPLACED? LET ME ANSWER THAT. SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO RECALL EVERY SINGLE CAR THAT HAS THE SENSOR WHICH IS EVERY SINGLE ONE. LET'S ADD TO THIS THE FACT THAT FORD CAN THEN CLAIM THAT EVERYONE LEFT WITH AN OVERHEATED ENGINE WITH CRACKED HEADS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE AND NOT THE SENSOR THAT INCORRECTLY ADJUST FOR THE SYSTEM PRESSURE AND INCORRECTLY READS THE TEMPS. THANKS, THANKS FOR LOOKING OUT FOR THE CONSUMER. NOW I AM LEFT WITH THE CHOICE OF PAYING OFF 7GRAND ON PRACTICALLY NEW MODEL OR REPLACE THE ENGINE...AND SENSOR OF COURSE.

CLACKING SOUND IN DASH DUE TO A FAULTY A/C ACTUATOR. (CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND STOPPED) THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME THE CAR IS STARTED, IT LAST A FEW SECONDS AND QUITS. THE DEALER REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND IT'S BAD AGAIN AFTER 20K MORE MILES. (PART #AV1Z 19E616 K) FROM WHAT I CAN TELL READING THE FORUMS ALL FIESTA'S ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THANK YOU

UPON EASY ACCELERATION, THE THROTTLE RESPONSE GOES DEAD AT 20 TO 30 MPH, THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO A CRAWL YET THE ENGINE SEEMS TO IDLE WELL...MY CAR HAS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION..FEARING REAR END COLLISION

SHUTTER IN THE TRANSMISSION , WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY CLAIMED THE PROBLEM WASN'T SEVERE ENOUGH FOR FORD MOTOR TO FIX THE ISSUE. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEMS IN THESE VEHICLES BUT AREN'T WILLING TO FIX IT. THERE IS ALSO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT DO TO THE ISSUE. SHUTTER BEFORE CAR MOVES IN FORWARD PSOITION EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE VEHICLE .

MY VEHICLE TRANSMISSION TENDS TO JERK OR SHAKE WHEN BRAKING AND COMING TO A STOP OR AT TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING. YOU CAN FEEL IT AND EVEN HEAR IT WITH THE WINDOW OPEN AT TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FIESTA. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A FUEL LINE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED 2,000 MILES LATER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,000.

THE CAR SHUTTERS, DELAYS, AND/OR JERKS WHEN ACCELERATING, MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. I HAVE BEEN TO FORD ON TWO OCCASIONS FOR THEM TO FIX THE SYSTEM SETTINGS ON THE COMPUTER IN MY CAR, WHICH THE RECALLS CLAIMS FIXES THE ISSUE, HOWEVER IT HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE. ATTACHED UNDER DOCUMENTATION IS INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECALL. THIS HAPPENS NOT ONLY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, BUT EVEN WHEN I JUST SPEED UP ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH I SEE TO BE EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND I AM NERVOUS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, HOWEVER FORD CLAIMS THERE IS NO ISSUE AND THIS IS "NORMAL."

I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 85 SOUTH BETWEEN PERRY HILL ROAD AND EASTERN BOULEVARD WHEN A ROCK HIT MY FRONT WINDSHIELD DUE TO THE UNPAVED ROAD FROM CONSTRUCTION. MY WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED INSTANTLY THEN STARTED TO SPREAD ACROSS. *TR

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK, THE ENGINE HAS A TENDENCY TO STUMBLE AND STALL WHEN IDLING (SUCH AS WHEN THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS DEPRESSED). ON ONE OCCASION, SEVERAL MINUTES AFTER FILLING THE TANK, I ENTERED THE ROADWAY IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE I WAS IN THE ROADWAY MOVING AT LOW SPEED. *TR

FORDS POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION FAILS TO SHIFT CORRECTLY BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEARS. THE CAR SHUDDERS, SHAKES, AND GROANS WITHING THE TRANSMISSION. THE CAR HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER AS ALMOST ALL FORD DEALERSHIPS WILL TELL YOU FORD REALLY HAS NO FIX FOR THEIR DANGEROUS DESIGN OF THIS TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT MEET FORDS SELF-IMPLEMENTED TEST TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FIXED. INSTEAD THEY REFLASH THE TCM TO RETRAIN THE COMPUTER, THIS DOES NOTHING BUT PROLONG THEIR DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS, AS YOU THEN HAVE TO DRIVE VEHICLE ANOTHER 1000 MILES BEFORE THEY WILL ALLOW DEALERSHIPS TO LOOK AT VEHICLE AGAIN. FORD IS TRYING TO AVOID A RECALL ON THIS DANGEROUS TRANSMISSION WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN FORCED BY THE NHTSA TO RECALL AND REPLACE ALL FORD FIESTA AND FOCUS WITH THIS TYPE OF TRANSMISSION. THE SYMPTOMS OF THIS TRANSMISSION FAILING ARE SURGING OF VEHICLE, LOSS OF DRIVE POWER, SHUDDER, HARSH ENGAGEMENT OF ENGINE POWER, LACK OF VEHICLE CONTROL DUE TO ENGAGEMENT/DISENGAGEMENT OF ELECTRONIC ACTIVATE CLUTCHES.

I BOUGHT MY CAR IN MARCH 2016 AND NOTICED RIGHT AWAY WHEN I SHIFT FROM 1ST TO 2ND MY CAR SEEMS TO STALL/SHAKE AND I HAVE IT IN AUTOMATIC, WHEN I HAVE IN THE KIND OF SHIFT THAT I DO IT DOESN'T DO IT. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT IT AND THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. I HAVE READ WHERE OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. A FRIEND OF MINE BOUGHT AT 2015 FORD FOCUS AND HERS IS DOING IT AS WELL.

THE CAR SHUDDERS REAL BAD WHEN STARTING UP. I HAVE HEARD SEVERAL FOCUS AND FIESTA HAVING THIS PROBLEM. FORD REFUSES TO FIX IT. *TR

FRONT SHOCKS SHOT BOUNCING DOWN THE ROAD AND RADIATOR MOUNTS LOOSE DEALER CHANGED SHOCK AND I ADDED GROMENTS TO TOP RADIATOR MOUNTS

THIS PROBLEM SHOWED UP ON THE FIRST DAY WE PICKED UP THIS BRAND NEW 2015 FORD FIESTA WITH LESS THAN 25 MILES ON THE ODO. WHILE WE WERE TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION AS WE LEFT THE MAIN HIGHWAY AND ENTERED THE SIDE STREET THE TRANSMISSION WENT INTO NEUTRAL. THE RPMS WENT UP TO OVER 4000 BUT THE TRANSMISSION NEVER ENGAGED. THE CAR THAT WAS BEHIND US AS WE WERE TURNING HAD TO STOP SUDDENLY TO KEEP FROM HITTING US AS WE COASTED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AS THE CAR ALMOST CAME TO A FULL STOP THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED HARD AND JUMPED FORWARD AS IF I HAD SLAMMED IT INTO GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPEN MANY MORE TIMES WITH MY WIFE, SISTER AND MYSELF AS DRIVER. EACH TIME WE WERE ALMOST HIT FROM EITHER ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR THE VEHICLES FOLLOWING US.

THE WRENCH LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. IT WOULD HAPPEN IN BOTH CITY AND INTERSTATE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WOULD GO INTO LIMP MODE AND I WOULD JUST BARELY BE ABLE TO GET ON TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE IN 70 MPH TRAFFIC. STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE WOULD ALLOW NORMAL OPERATION FOR ABOUT 5 MILES. THE PROBLEM WOULD THEN OCCUR AGAIN. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED A BAD THROTTLE BODY WITH A CODE OF P2011. I'VE READ THAT FORD HAS A HISTORY OF THESE PROBLEMS WITH THROTTLE BODIES. IT SEEMS THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE ISSUE ON NEWER MODELS.

SHORTLY AFTER HAVING THE CAR, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED BEING JUMPY, LOSING POWER AT TAKE OFF AND ACTING LIKE IT WILL STALL OUT. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS FOR FORD DEALERSHIP TO LOOK AT. DID SUCEED WITH ONE OF THE ATTEMPTS AND THEY SAID THEY RESET COMPUTER. THAT DID NOT WORK. THE OTHER TIMES THEY TELL ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIX AND THEY ARE WORKING ON FINDING A SOLUTION TO FIX. I HAVE TRIED TO TRADE IN AND THEY TELL ME NOW IT IS ONLY WORTH ABOUT HALF OF WHAT WE BOUGHT A YEAR AGO. MY FAMILY FEELS VERY UNSAFE IN THIS CAR AND VERY DISSATISFIED WITH ASHEVILLE FORD.

JERKS AND SOMETIMES MAKES BAD NOISE WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. HAPPENS OFTEN.

MY AIRBAG WARNING INDICATOR HAS ILLUMINATED AND HAS STAYED ON FOR TWO DAYS NOW. THERE ARE ALSO STRANGE NOISES COMING FROM THE AREA BEHIND MY STEERING WHEEL.

CAR LUNGES FORWARD WHILE STOPPED AT INTERSECTIONS. WHILE ON A HIGHWAY IN TRAFFIC RPMS REMAINED HIGH AFTER THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO DOWNSHIFT FOR APPROXIMATELY A MILE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T SHIFT UP AND JUST DOESN'T GO. ROLLS BACKWARDS DOWN HILLS WHILE TRYING TO GO FORWARD AND MAKES A CLICKING SOUND. CAR HAS A REALLY BAD SHUTTER WHEN ROUNDING CURVES AND TURNING CORNERS AND OCCASIONALLY FOLLOWS WITH THE CAR NOT ACCELERATING. HAS BEEN TO FORD TO BE CHECKED ONCE ALREADY AND WAS TOLD IT HAD NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND HAS A SECOND APPOINTMENT NEXT WEEK. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 9 MONTHS AND HAVE PUT LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON IT. SOMETIMES THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT WILL STALL OUT WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT UP. WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED CAN HEAR CLICKING IN TRANSMISSION AS IT ROCKS EXCESSIVELY ON LEVEL GROUND. CAR ALSO APPEARS TO HAVE NO POWER WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP AND HAS ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS.

THIS PROBLEM INITIALLY SURFACED WITH LESS THAN 2500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. IMMEDIATELY AFTER REFUELING MY VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULD STUMBLE AND SOMETIMES STALL COMPLETELY, WHILE AT A STOP AND WITH THE ENGINE IDLING. THE FORD DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THE PROBLEM TO BE A FAULTY EVAPORATION CANISTER PURGE VALVE IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL I ADDED TO THE TANK DID NOT SEEM TO MATTER AS EACH TIME I DID SO, THE ENGINE WOULD STUMBLE OR STALL WITHIN 1-2 MINUTES FOLLOWING THE FILL-UP. ONCE THE STUMBLING OR STALL HAD OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION WITHOUT ISSUE (OR UPON RESTARTING THE VEHICLE) UNTIL THE NEXT TIME I WOULD NEED TO ADD FUEL. THE STUMBLING AND STALLING WAS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS AS IT TENDED TO OCCUR AS I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM THE GAS STATION, MERGING INTO TRAFFIC AT A BUSY INTERSECTION OR ON-RAMP.

TL* THE CONTACT RENTED A 2015 FORD FIESTA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK AND RELEASING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,300.

AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AT ABOUT, 11:45 PM.

AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP MY BOYFRIEND TOLD THE SERVICE ADVISER ABOUT THE ISSUES WITH THE CARS TRANSMISSION, AND HE WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISER, THAT FORD KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE, AND HAD ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN. HE THEN WENT ON TO STATE THAT THE FORD SERVICE BULLETIN STATES THAT THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED MY A FAULTY TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE, AND ALSO A INTERNAL LEAK IN THE CLUTCH HOUSING ON THE TRANSMISSION, AND THAT FORD WILL ONLY REPAIR THE ISSUE AT 1,500 MILES, NOT BEFORE THAT TIME. HE ALSO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION COULD BE COMPUTER TUNED TO HELP STOP THE PROBLEM. *TR
