NHTSA Complaint #10809302 — 2012 FORD FIESTA

I PURCHASED A 2012 FORD FIESTA NEW FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN MARCH 2012. I ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH SHUDDERING AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS JUST GOING TO RUN THAT WAY. IN MARCH OF 2015 MY CAR STARTED STALLING AND SHUDDERING IN LOW GEAR WHILE IN MOTION OR WHEN STOPPED. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR PROBLEM AND IT SHOULD BE CORRECTED. BEFORE MAKING IT HOME IT DID THE SAME DAY AND THEN STARTED SHOWING A TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION SERVICE NOW MESSAGE. I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP, STILL DRIVEABLE JUST WITH AN ERROR MESSAGE. 30 DAYS LATER I CALLED TO CHECK ON MY CAR AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT DRIVE-ABLE, THE SPEEDOMETER WAS NOT WORKING, ALL THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS WERE ON AND THEY COULD NOT DRIVE IT OFF THE LOT. AFTER FIGHTING TO GET MY CAR FIXED BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL STATE, I PAID MORE MONEY FOR A ABS MODULE THAT THEY STATED WAS WRONG AS WELL AS THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. WENT TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER, CAR WOULD NOT CRANK AND HAD TO BE JUMPED TO LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD MY BATTERY WAS DEAD. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR SINCE SEPTEMBER WITH CONTINUED SHUDDERING, I AWOKE THIS MORNING DECEMBER 9, 2015 TO ANOTHER TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION SERVICE NOW LIGHT AND POOR DRIVING ABILITY. NOT SURE IF TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IS GOING TO DO ANY GOOD. IF THIS IS A REPEATED PROBLEM, AND THE TRANSMISSION IS GIVING MULTIPLE ISSUES FOR EVERYONE, THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. THE VALUE OF THE CAR IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE PAY OFF LEFT ON THE VEHICLE, SO I MAY HAVE TO JUST DEAL WITH THE CAR SITTING AND NOT EVEN BEING DRIVE-ABLE.
