NHTSA Complaint #10669946 — 2013 FORD FIESTA

I ALSO HAVE HAD ENGINE HESITATION WITH MY FIESTA SINCE THE FIRST DAYS WITH MY NEW CAR. FROM A STOP, EITHER ON A INCLINE OR FLAT SURFACE, THE CAR HAS TROUBLE ACCELERATING.IT SHAKES AND GIVE YOU A FEELING OF SAFETY CONCERNS THAT IT MIGHT STALL AND NOT MOVE FORWARD. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE THE CAR WILL TAKE A VERY LONG TIME, IF AT ALL, TO ADD TO YOUR SPEED. MAINTAINING YOUR SPEED WHILE DRIVING IS ALSO IMPOSSIBLE. THIS IS A UNSAFE CAR AND FORD NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS MAJOR PROBLEM BEFORE A MORE SERIOUS ACCIDENT OCCURS. I DO NOT WANT ANYONE TO BE A STATISTIC TO BEGIN ACTION. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO ME TO BE WELL DOCUMENTED IF ALL THE DEALERSHIPS ARE PASSING ON THE COMPANY LINE FROM FORD " THAT THIS IS HOW THE FORD FIESTA OPERATES" TO THE CONSUMERS THAT COME TO THE DEALERSHIPS FOR HELP.THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IF I OR ANY OF THE OTHER AFFECTED DRIVERS WOULD HAVE KNOW WE WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE.I HOPE FORD WILL CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE A TRAGEDY. *TR
