Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH TRANSMISSION AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE ABOUT 6 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. CAR SHIFTS HARD, WHEN DRIVING, SPUTTERS, AND EVEN ONCE STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF A INTERSECTION. I HAD THESE ISSUES FROM DAY ONE WITH THE VEHICLE BUT WAS TOLD THE CARS COMPUTER HAS TO "LEARN" HOW YOU DRIVE. ELECTRICAL, THE LOCKS SOMETIMES WORKS, OR THE DOORS LOCK WHEN THEY AREN'T SUPPOSED TO. KEY FOB DOESN'T WORK SOMETIMES. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS RIDICULOUS AND FORD MOTOR CO. SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. MY CAR HAS 27500 MILES ON IT AND RUNS LIKE IT IS 15 YEARS OLD! MY WARRANTY IS UP AT 36000, SO THEN ALL THESE ISSUES BECOME THE CONSUMER PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH FORD IS AWARE THIS IS AN ISSUE THEY ARE HAVING AND WON'T RECALL UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. *TR
