NHTSA Complaint #11234749 — 2011 FORD FIESTA

AT 232 MILES WE STARTED TAKING THIS CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, AND WERE TOLD THEY HAD NO CLUE WHAT WAS GOING ON, BEFORE 60,000 MILES THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION OR DID SOFTWARE UPDATES NUMEROUS TIMES, ALSO AFTER 60,000 IT CONTINUED. IN ADDITION THE FRAME AND AXELS HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WHEN THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN ACCIDENT. I WAS TOLD BY A FORD MECHANIC THE TRANSMISSION CAUSED THAT DUE TO THE SEVERE SHAKING CAUSED BY THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. IN ADDITION THE AIR CONDITIONING HAD ISSUES OVER AND OVER AND THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ALSO HAD ISSUES AFTER RECALLS FOR SOMETHING TO DUE WITH THE BATTERY HARNESS, MY LIGHTS WENT OUT, MY RADIO STOPPED WORKING, MY AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AND MANY OTHER ODD ELECTRICAL THINGS HAPPENED AT THIS POINT THIS CAR SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND IS UNABLE TO BE DRIVEN BECAUSE OF SAFETY ISSUES, WHILE I WAIT AND HOPE THAT FORD IS FORCED TO DO A BUY BACK. I PURCHASED THIS CAR FOR MY DAUGHTER WHEN SHE WENT OFF TO COLLEGE IN THE HOPES SHE WOULD HAVE A SAFE RELIABLE CAR, IT HAS BEEN ANYTHING BUT THAT, SO MANY PROBLEMS OVER THE YEARS BUT UNABLE TO FINANCIALLY TO PURCHASE ANOTHER AND FORCED TO SPEND MONEY ON REPAIRS TO KEEP THIS ONE RUNNING. I AM SO UPSET THAT THEY KNEW BEFORE THEY EVER PUT THIS CAR ON THE ROAD THAT IT WAS UNSAFE JUST SO THEY COULD MAKE MONEY AT THE RISK THEY WERE PUTTING PEOPLE IN, THERE WERE SEVERAL TIMES MY DAUGHTERS CAR WOULD SHAKE STUTTER AND SLOW DOWN THAT SHE HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.. I HAVE ALL OF THE WORK BILLS DO YOU WANT THOSE?
