2012 FORD FOCUS Unknown Or Other Problems

WHEN I ENTERED THE VIN NUMBER FOR MY VEHICLE IT SAID THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE?? I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE SEVERAL MANUFACTURING RECALL PROBLEMS ADDRESSED!!?? I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ABOUT THE CLUTCH PROBLEM IN THIS VEHICLE! WHY HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANYTHING? WHY DOES YOUR SYSTEM NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THIS VEHICLE DIES HAVE RECALLS! HOW CAN ZI GET A LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER SO HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING!

HAVE SEEN 2 RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE INVOLVING THE LOCKS/LATCHES,FUEL PROBLEMS, AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP TWICE TODAY FOR NO REASON.

RADIO HAS WENT OUT AND NOW LIGHTS HAVE BECOME DIM ON THE DASHBOARD. RADIO IS COMPLETELY OFF BUT STILL HEARING STATIC NOISE THROUGH THE SPEAKERS.

TAKATA RECALL MY 2012 FORD FOCUS IS HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I CAN NOT DRIVE OVER 60 IN MY VEHICLE AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ REPORTS AND CALLED FORD AND NO ONE WILL TAKE A LOOK INTO THIS. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WILL SMOKE AND OVER HEAT. I AM NOT ABLE TO CUT THE CAR ON FOR 10 MINS AND ALL OF MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS APPEAR. IT HAS BEEN THIS WAY FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD TO GET A NEW FORM OF TRANSPORTATION BECAUSE OF IT. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS.

MY CAR SHUTS OFF OR STALLS WHILE DRIVING, GAS INDICATOR IS NOT ACCURATE, I CAN SMELL FUEL FOR A LONG TIME AFTER I FILL UP, THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SMOOTH AT ALL, IT JERKS AND SHAKES, WIPER FLUID IS FULL BUT IT WON'T RELEASE.

THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS KEEP ON OPENING WHILE IN MOTION SO I HAVE TO REALLY HOLD ON TIGHT WITH THE DOOR WHILE DRIVING. I THINK BECAUSE THE LATCHKEY/LOCK BROKE OR SOMETHING... I'VE ALREADY GO TO FORD FOR THIS ONE BUT THEY SAID IT'S NOT ON THEIR RECALL LIST...

CAR SUDDENLY LOSES ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN, LOSES ALL POWER FOR ABOUT 15 MIN TO HOUR AND THE WILL SUDDENLY START UP AGAIN

HAD 2 ISSUES WITH DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION SINCE BUYING THE VEHICLE. CLUTCH WAS REPLACED ON MAY 13TH, 2019 FOR MY 2012 FORD FOCUS. I WAS STUCK ON THE HIGHWAY TWICE FOR THIS OCCURRENCE WITH THE VEHICLE JERKING WHILE IN MOTION THEN THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT COMING ON AND THE CAR STALLING OUT. THE VEHICLE THEN CAME TO A STOP AND COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. THE COST OF THE REPAIR WAS 2667.46 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH. THE PREVIOUS TIME WAS DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE BUT WAS FIXED WITH NO ISSUES.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN WORKED ON 3 TIMES NOW. IT'S BEEN A BURNT CLUTCH TWICE AND THE THIRD WAS A RECALL THEY FIXED ON THE TRANSMISSION. AND NOW FOR A 4TH TIME, I NEED TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO BE WORKED ON BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION. MY CAR WON'T GO IN REVERSE. SOMETIMES IT WILL BEGIN TO GO FORWARD INSTEAD OF BACKWARDS. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE FROM PARK, I CAN HEAR THE GEARS GRIND. THE CAR SHUDDERS AND JERKS LIKE IT USUALLY DOES. BUT INSTEAD OF THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE LIGHT COMING LIKE IT DID THE FIRST THREE TIMES, NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON BUT I KNOW THIS IS THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE. EACH TIME MY CAR HAS BROKE DOWN BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION, I WAS ON POPULATED ROADS AND I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN IN A CAR ACCIDENT.

AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 15 MINUTES WARNING LIGHT COMES ON THAT TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION, PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. FORD SAYS IT'S THE COMPUTER BUT WILL NOT FIX THIS. THIS WAS ON A CITY STREET GOING 50 MPH. MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS VEHICLE IF SHE HAD BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. 2012 FORD FOCUS, 117,000 MILES.

THE RADIO IN MY 2012 FORD FOCUS SE HAS MALFUNCTIONED. WHILE DRIVING ONE DAY, I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN STATIC. IT WAS SO LOUD IT SCARED ME AND I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. IT HAS DONE THIS NUMEROUS TIMES, EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND THE KEY IS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. UPON CHECKING SOCIAL MEDIA AND COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB, THIS HAS HAPPENED TO QUITE A FEW 2012 FORD FOCUS VEHICLES. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING IS TO REMOVE THE FUSE FOR THE RADIO FROM THE FUSE BOX LOCATED UNDER THE GLOVE BOX ON THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. FORD HAS REFUSED TO MAKE THE NECESSARY REPAIRS AT THEIR COST AND I FULLY BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE LOUDNESS OF THE POPPING AND CRACKING. I HAVE NOW BEEN WITHOUT A RADIO IN MY CAR FOR MORE THAN A...

VEHICLE LOST TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING UPHILL ON A 45 MPH ROADWAY, IN JUNE 2014. VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. WHEN YOU STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. HAD TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND LET SIT FOR SEVERAL MOMENTS. ONCE STARTED VEHICLE WAS OPERABLE. ON ANOTHER OCCASSION TRANSMISSION WAS AGAIN NOT OPERATING PROPERLY AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE . THIS HAPPENED ON A 55 MPH HIGHWAY AND ALMOST CAUSED VEHICLE TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, SINCE VEHICLE WOULD NOT FUNTION PROPERTY (SEPT. 2014). IN AUGUST 2015 MOTOR VEHICLE WOULD "JUMP" ALL THE TIME WHILE DRIVING. IN AUGUST 2017, THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MPH AND THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT WAS ON. THIS AGAIN HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A 55 MPH HIGHWAY, ALMOST CAUSING A MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT BECAUSE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20 MPH. I WAS FORCED TO PAY $484.17 TO FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS,...

WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN, THE CAR STARTED TO SHUTTER AND WOULDN'T ADVANCE OUT OF FIRST GEAR. WE WERE TURNING A CORNER. SHUDDER, TRANSMISSION SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON.

WHEN I PUT MY GEAR IN REVERSE, SOMETIMES MY CAR JERKS AND REVERSE FASTER THAN IT SHOULD OR OTHER TIMES THE CAR WOULD IDLE, I WOULD SEE THE RPM GOING UP AND HEAR THE RPM BUT THE CAR DOESNT MOVE. I'D HAVE TO HIT BRAKE AND TRY TO REVERSE AGAIN. WHEN I COME TO A STOP AND TRY TO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE EITHER JERKS OR JUST TAKES OFF. THE PROBLEM ALMOST HAPPENS EVERY TIME. OR WHEN I AM SLOWING DOWN, THE CAR WOULD JERK OR SHUDDER. WHENEVER I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY JUST TELL ME THE SHUDDER/JERKS ARE IN THEIR NORMAL RANGE READING AND BASICALLY TELLS ME THAT IS NORMAL FOR THE VEHICLE TO DO. ALL THE SHUDDERING, JERKING, AND BEING HESITANT HAPPENS MOSTLY STARTING FROM A STATIONARY POSITION, LIKE AT A RED LIGHT OR A STOP SIGN. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT THE...

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM FORD OF KIRKLAND IN WASHINGTON STATE IN 2016, AND NOTICED DRIVING ISSUES THE DAY I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT. THIS VEHICLE HAS A DPS6 TRANSMISSION AND IT CONSTANTLY JERKS, SHUDDERS AND SLIPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. IT OFTEN FAILS TO ACCELERATE OR ACCELERATES SUDDENLY AND OUT OF CONTROL, ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING UPHILL. IT ALSO FREQUENTLY OVERHEATS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IDLING, DESPITE HAVING WORK DONE ON IT SEVERAL TIMES THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME, AND THE DPS6 IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AT ALL. I ALSO FREQUENTLY HAVE ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL AND RADIO SYSTEM. THE CLOCK CHANGES RANDOMLY AND THE AUDIO SWITCHES UNEXPECTEDLY TO RADIO STATIONS FROM BLUE TOOTH WHILE DRIVING AND THEN FAILS TO SWITCH BACK TO ANY BLUE TOOTH DEVICE, SOMETIMES FOR...

I WAS DRIVING SOUTHBOUND IN THE LEFT LANE ON I-495 FROM MD INTO VA, ABOUT TO GET TO THE EZ PASS CAMERA. I SELDOM USE THE PASS, THEREFORE IT IS NOT AFFIXED TO THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD PLACED IT ON THE DASHBOARD IN ANTICIPATION OF THE UPCOMING CAMERA. TRAFFIC WAS ALTERNATELY SLOWING DOWN AND SPEEDING UP TO APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. THE DRIVER AHEAD OF ME SUDDENLY SLOWED NEARLY TO A STOP, SO I PRESSED MY BRAKES, WHICH CAUSED THE EZ PASS TO SLIDE ACROSS THE DASHBOARD AND UP AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD. UNABLE TO REACH IT WITH MY SEATBELT ON, AND BECAUSE THE CAR WAS BARELY MOVING, I UNFASTENED THE SEAT BELT TO RETRIEVE THE PASS. AT THE SAME TIME THE DRIVER AHEAD OF ME SLIGHTLY INCREASED HER SPEED, THEN SUDDENLY SLOWED AGAIN, WHICH I DID, TOO. HOWEVER, THIS TIME I HAD TO PUNCH THE BRAKE. IT WENT STRAIGHT TO THE...

I HAD 2 RECALLS ON LOCKS AND FUEL PUMP AND NOW TODAY @7:00AM I HAVE TRANSMISSION MELFUNCTION. I WILL NEVER BUY A FORD AGAIN

TRANSMISSION CLUTCH AND TCM RECALL I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF MY 2012 FORD FOCUS S, I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN AUGUST OF 2018. 6 MONTHS LATER, THE CAR STARTED CUTTING OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING 50+MPH ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT AND CARS FLYING BEHIND US. I TOOK IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TCM, THEY REPROGRAMMED SOMETHING, AND REPLACED A CANISTER PURGE VALVE, GOT THE CAR BACK A COUPLE WEEKS LATER, IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH FOR $1,090. NOW HERE WE ARE 5 MONTHS LATER AND MY CAR IS SHIFTING SO HARD AND HESITATING LIKE I AM A 10 YEAR OLD TRYING TO DRIVE A STICK SHIFT. IT'S HESITATING WHEN I TAKE OFF AND WHILE I'M TRYING TO SLOWLY TAKE OFF THE RPM JUMPS...

MY RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE. THERE WAS A PAST RECALL FOR ANOTHER DOOR NOT CLOSING. I HAD THAT REPAIRED BUT NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN.

MY RECENTLY PURCHASED 2012 FORD FOCUS WITH'19,000 MILES' JUST COST ME 1,437.14 TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH!!! THIS IS DUE TO A FORD MANUFACTURING MISTAKE THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN ON AN AUTOMATIC DRIVE VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 20,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE!!!???? I WILL NEVER BY ANOTHER FORD VEHICLE AGAIN. I WILL TELL EVERYONE IN EARSHOT IF ME A THAT EVENS MENTIONS CONSIDERING BUYING A FORD TO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BUT THAT BRAND. FORD HAS THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE RATINGS EVER! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THERE RESEARCH BEFORE EVEN WAITING THERE TIME TO GO TO A FORD DEALERSHIP!! BIGGEST RIP OFF CAR COMPANY BY FAR!! THUS PROBLEM NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED AND FORD SHOULD OF STEPPED UP AND DONE THE RITE THING BY ITS CUSTOMERS!! NEVER AGAIN!! I WILL BE TELLING EVERYONE WHAT A RIP OFF YOU PEOPLE ARE!! HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING THAT PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE...

THE DOOR LATCH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE JUST QUICK WORKING. THE DOOR JUST FLYS OPEN. THANK GOD MY FIANCE WAS ONLY IN THE PARKING LOT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THE DOOR WILL SHUT BUT WILL NOT LATCH. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS PART, BUT WHEN MY VIN IS ENTERED, MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE THE RECALL...SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. IT HAS TO BE THE SAME DOOR LATCH? PLEASE HELP WITH THIS, THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN'T HAPPEN TO ANYMORE PEOPLE!

MY CAR HORN WOULD PERIODICALLY GO OUT THEN ONE DAY IT COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING, I DISCOVERED THIS WHEN I TRIED TO WARN A TRUCK THAT I WAS IN A LANE THE TRUCK DECIDED TO MERGE INTO. I FIRST TOOK IT TO FORD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED HOWEVER THEY NEVER COMPLETED THIS REPAIR FOR ME. I THEN GOT MY HORN REPLACED AT A FIRESTONE WHERE MY SERVICE ADVISER INFORMED ME THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND THEY REALLY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG BESIDES THE HORN SYSTEM. THEY STATED "HAVE POWER ALL THE WAY TO THE HORN WHEN PUSHING BUTTON ON WHEEL." SO THEY HAD TO REMOVE AND REPLACE HORN ASSEMBLY. I MENTIONED THIS TO A FORD SERVICE ADVISER, AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS "OH YEAH SOMETIMES THAT HAPPENS WITH THE FORD HORNS A SPRING BREAKS." LIKE IT WAS COMMON AND COMMON KNOWLEDGE. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE IN NY...

STARTED CAR AND DASH LIGHT INDICATED THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE, "TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION. SERVICE NOW"LIKE MANY OTHERS I HAVE SEEN ONLINE.IT ALSO STATES ENGINE NEEDS SERVICE

UNSURE WHAT IS WRONG. HOWEVER, I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN 2 TWICE FOR A SHUDDER, JERKING, AND HARD SHIFTING. THE DEALERSHIP FIXED THE HARD SHIFTING FOR A COST, BUT THE SHUDDERING WITH NEVER GOT FIXED HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVEN BEFORE THEY RESET OR REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. IT SHUDDERS GOING UP STEP HILLS, AND AT TIMES WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY, AND WE WERE TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, AND WE SHOULDN'T BE ALARMED. HOWEVER AFTER DRIVING EVERY DAY FOR A LIVING, THIS DOESN'T FEEL OR SOUND CORRECT, ITS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE.

TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AND NOT MOVING WHEN IN GEAR. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ALSO ON.

CAR STUTTERS FROM STARTING OUT TAKES TOO LONG TO ACCELERATE AND FRIENDS HAVE SAID WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAR .IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD REPEATED ISSUES OVER THE PAST 7 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. THE VEHICLE HAS SHUDDERED UPON ACCELERATION FOR MANY YEARS. A TRANSMISSION RECALL SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE HAS CONTINUED TO SHUDDER AND ALSO STRUGGLED GOING UPHILL. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP, AS IT WAS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO DRIVE SAFELY. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN GOING UP EVEN A MODERATE INCLINE AND WOULD BEGIN TO SHUDDER AND "REV UP". I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY UP AN INCLINE WHEN THE VEHICLE STRUGGLED TO ACCELERATE, BEGAN SHUDDERING, AND THE ENGINE BECAME LOUD. I HAD TO MOVE OVER INTO THE FAR RIGHT LANE AND SLOWLY MAKE MY WAY UP THE INCLINE TRAVELING WELL BELOW THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. THE FORD DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE CLUTCH THAT NEEDED REPLACED. WHEN I QUESTIONED IF THIS WAS RELATED TO ALL OF THE OTHER SHUDDERING...

THE TRANSMISSION IS UNDER CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. HAVING TROUBLE WITH SINCE BUYING IN 2012, STILL WAITING ON OUTCOME OF THAT. TODAY. MARCH 27, 2019, "STEERING WHEEL ASSIST- SERVICE NEEDED". STEERING OUT WHEEL WILL NOT TURN. I WORK I NEED A CAR. I WILL BE CALLING FORD TODAY. MY FORD FOCUS SE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, OVER 140,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS NOT ABLE TO LEAVE HOME FOR WORK TODAY. SOMETIMES WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF THE TIME CHANGES I THEN TURN IT BACK ON AND IT GOES BACK TO THE CORRECT TIME. ALSO IN THE PAST SOMETIMES IN WOULD NOT START. I WOULD WAIT A WHILE AND THEN IT WOULD START. IT HAS NOT DONE THAT SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2012. THIS CAR HAS A LOT OF PROBLEMS.

OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS MY FORD FOCUS HAS COMPLETELY RAN LIKE [XXX] THE CAR BOGS OUT CUTS OFF DUE TO THE FUEL AND CLUSTER JAM AND IT'S CAUSED MY CLUTCH OR TRANSMISSION TO THROW CODES. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BOUGHT 11/9/2012 SIX MONTHS LATER REC'D EMISSION RECALL, 1YR LATER WOULD NOT START, DEAD IN GROCERY PARKING, DEALER SAID EMISSION AGAIN, 2ND YR RADIO WENT OUT, 3RD YR CATALYLICT CONVERTER NEED TO BE CHANGED, 5/16/2017 WAS CHARGED $1805.72, SAID NOT EMISSION BUT IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING AS BEFORE, DEAD HAD TO BE TOWED AGAIN TO DEALER, DEALER SAID, "CODES PO420, PO7A3 TESTED, FOUND CONVERTER STOPPED UP, SHIFT ACTUATOR FAULTY, REMOVED TRANSMISSION REPLACED CLUTCH ACTUATORSAND CLUTCH, REMOVED & REPLACED MANIFOLD/COVERTER ASSEMBLY. NOW TWICE SO FAR ENGINE MALFUNCTION LIGHT, NO POWER, GOES 5 MILES....... WHEN TURNED OFF IN ABOUT 45-1 HR, STARTS.... ALL THIS WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED IN A PARKING LOT.

HAD JUST TURNED ONTO OUR RURAL STREET, DOING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, WHEN I HEARD A LOUD POP/EXPLOSION. THE LEFT FRONT TIRE HAD BLOWN OUT. REMOVING THE TIRE, 1/3-1/2 OF THE SIDEWALL NEXT TO THE RIM HAD BLOWN OUT IN A LINE AROUND THE TIRE. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE DEXTERO TIRES, ON JUST THIS TYPE OF BLOW OUT, BUT NOT ON THIS SPECIFIC SIZE, WHICH IS A 195-65R15. RESEARCHING I HAVE FOUND OTHERS TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THESE SHOULD BE ON A RECALL AS WELL. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE TURNOUT OF THIS HAD IT HAPPENED DRIVING 75 MPH, AS WE DO EVERYDAY ON THE HIGHWAY. THESE TIRES ARE ON A 2012 FORD FOCUS. BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED AND THEN SEEING THE RECALL WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH MANY OF THE DEXTERO TIRES, I FEEL IT IS IN OUR BEST INTEREST TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES. THIS...

TRUNK OPENS WHILE DRIVING - HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS. HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS.

AFTER I PUT FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK AND TRY TO START THE CAR HESITATES LIKE IT WANTS TO QUIT. I JUST GOT IT AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY REPLACED FUEL PUMP, FUEL TANK, AND DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO THE PCM. AND ALSO REPLACED THE PURGE VALVE. AFTER FUELING THE CAR IS THE ONLY TIME THE HESITATION IS NOTICED AFTER THAT IT STARTS FINE UNTIL THE NEXT FUEL IS PUT IN. THE 2ND THING THAT IS HAPPENING IS THERE IS WATER IN THE TRUNK UNDER THE SPARE TIRE. IT HAS BEEN RAINING FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND THE WATER IS EVEN WITH THE SPARE. WHAT I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP WAS THAT FORD HAS BASICALLY WASHED THEIR HANDS OF ME AND MY CAR SINCE I SETTLED WITH THEM ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION. I AM HAVING AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP TO TRY AND FIND WHAT IS CAUSING THE...

MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS FIXED BY LOCAL FORD DEALER WHEN I THOUGHT MY TRANSMISSION WAS THE PROBLEM.THEY SUPPOSE TO FIX IT BUT WEEKS AFTER MY DASHBOARD WENT HAYWIRE AND MY RADIO STOP WORKING.I HAD TO PAY THEM CLOSE TO 200.00 FOR THE REPAIRS.

THERE WAS RECALL I'M MY TRANSMISSION WHICH MY LOCAL FORD DEALER HAVE CLAIMED TO FIXED BUT I HAVE STILL BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT AND THEY SEEM UNABLE TO FIX AFTER ME TAKING IT BACK TWICE.NOW I'M THE PROBLEM IS HERE AGAIN AND MY CAR WON'T BACK UP AND MY TRANSMISSION LIGHT KEEP COMING ON AND IT DRIVES LIKE A STICK SHIFT.I HOPE THAT IT CAN BE FIXED WITHOUT COST CAUSE THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION.IM STILL MAKING MONTHLY PAYMENTS

WHEN GOING ABOUT 55 MPH MY CAR STARTS TO GET VERY LOUD, NOTHING SEEMS TO BE WRONG IT'S AS IF THERE'S A LEAF BLOWER INSIDE THE VEHICLE. AS I SLOW DOWN, USE THE BRAKES, THE SOUND SLOWLY GETS MORE QUIET.

THE GEAR GETS STUCK IN REVERSE AND I CAN'T PUT THE CAR IN PARK. EVEN THOUGH THE GEAR READS PARK IT WILL STILL BE IN A DIFFERENT GEAR.

I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE DOOR UNLATCHED ON IT'S OWN AND BECAME CRACKED OPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR. I HAD TO STOP AND HURRY UP AND GET OUT TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR AGAIN. MY DAUGHTER WAS SITTING IN HER CAR SEAT ON THAT SIDE. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT 2 TIMES YESTERDAY.

OPEN HOOD WARNING LIGHT COMES ON,AT RANDOM TIMES, WHILE BEING DRIVEN. THE HOOD IS CLOSED SECURELY. ALARM SYSTEM GOES OFF, SEVERAL TIMES AT NIGHT WHILE THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND ENGINE IS OFF. LOW BATTERY WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE CAR ENGINE IS ON. BATTERY HAS BEEN CHECKED, IS GOOD!

I ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT DUE TO THE DEAFENING NOISES COMING OUT FROM THE SPEAKERS WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT SOUNDED LIKE FIRECRACKER GOING OFF NEXT TO MY EARS. I WAS STARTLED AND TRYING TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. DUE TO THE DISTRACTION FROM THE NOISES, NEITHER DID I FLICK THE TURNING SIGNAL NOR DID I HEAR THE HONKING FROM THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME. DEALER UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AND ASKING FOR $783 TO REPLACE THE RADIO. THERE ARE LOT SIMILAR COMPLAINTS LIKE THIS, THEY NEED TO MAKE A RECALL ON ALL DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR MODULE.

THE HORN QUIT WORKING AT 90XXX MILES. I CHECKED THE RELAY, AND THE RELAY WAS NOT THE ISSUE. I LUCKILY PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT PAID FOR THE HORN. BUT I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALLED ISSUED ABOUT THIS BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL ARE HAVING THIS ISSUES, FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND ONLINE.

WHEN PLACING PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP YOU HEAR/FEEL A CRUNCHING SOUND. IT NEVER DID THAT BEFORE NOW IT DOES IT EVERY TIME YOU USE THE BRAKES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO 3 DIFFERENT GARAGES TO BE CHECKED AND GOT BACK THAT MY BRAKES WAS FINE. ONE GARAGE SAID IT COULD BE THE ABS SYSTEM MAKING THE NOISE. NO POWER TO CLIMB A HILL OR IF YOU GET UP THE HILL THE ENGINE/MOTOR DOES NOT SHIFT LIKE IT SUPPOSE TO. THIS ALL TOOK PLACE IN AUGUST OF 2018.

IM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY TRANSMISSION I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT SINCE 2016 THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT I TOOK IT BACK A CONTROL MODULE WAS PUT ON IT, THAN I TOOK IT BACK THE END 2017 A CLUTCH WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE BEEN PUT IN IT. NOW ITS 2018 AND ITS BACK ACTING UP AGAIN.

ENGINE TEMPERATURE SENSOR MALFUNCTIONS AND SAYS ENGINE IS OVERHEATING WHEN IT IS IN FACT NOT AS WELL AS WHEN IT IS.

THE TRUNK LID OPENS RANDOMLY. IT OPENS WHENEVER THE CAR IS STARTED OR TURNED OFF(WHILE THE KEYS ARE TAKEN OUT), WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN GEARS, AND WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST SET INTO MOTION. IT HAS NOT OPENED WHILE DRIVING AT FULL SPEED BUT WORRIED THAT IT COULD HAPPEN.

THE TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION SEVICE NOW WARNING CAME ON. CAR SHUDDERS AND LURCHS WHEN ON INCLINE, SLOWING AT INTERSECTION, DIFFICULTY MAINTAINING 60 MPH ON EXPRESSWAY. CLUTCH HAD BEEN RECALLED AND REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES: THE FIRST AT 3,543 MILES. THE VEHICLE HAD SHUDDERED,LURCHED FORWARD I OFF/ON FOR FOUR YEARS WHEN STOPPING,SLOWING DOWN AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

THE HORN STOPPED WORKING, WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE, IN ALL CAPACITIES. I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE THE REMOTE LOCKING FEATURE ON THE KEY. LATER, WHILE AT A STOP SIGN IN CITY TRAFFIC, TRYING TO SIGNAL TO ANOTHER DRIVER THEY WERE MAKING A DANGEROUS TRAFFIC VIOLATION, I DISCOVERED THE HORN ITSELF, AND NOT THE KEY INTERFACE, WAS TO BLAME.

ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, WHILE DRIVING, MY RADIO MADE A VERY LOUD POP SIMILAR TO A GUNSHOT NOISE, THEN STOPPED PLAYING MUSIC AND WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. THIS WOULD HAPPEN PERIODICALLY. IN ABOUT THE PAST 2 WEEKS IT HAS HAPPENED MORE AND MORE OFTEN, AND NOW THE RADIO WILL NOT TURN ON AT ALL. THE NOISE COMING FROM THE SPEAKER HAS GOTTEN MUCH WORSE. IT NOW CRACKLES, BOOMS, MAKES HIGH PITCHED NOISES, SOME OF WHICH ARE EXTREMELY LOUD. THESE NOISES NOW HAPPEN ALL THE TIME- WHEN THE CAR IS ON AND IN DRIVE (ANY SPEED), STOPPED, IN PARK, AND EVEN HAPPEN WHEN IT IS COMPLETELY OFF, NO KEY IN THE IGNITION AT ALL. BEING SOMEONE WHO SCARES EASILY, THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT IF IT HAPPENED AT THE RIGHT MOMENT, THESE LOUD NOISES WOULD CAUSE ME TO...

THE CAR DOOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WILL NOT CLOSE.

THE CAR HAS A BAD STUTTER FROM COMPLETE STOPS, OR EVEN WHEN SLOWING DOWN IT STUTTERS AND SHAKES. EVEN AT LOW SPEEDS THE RPM STAGGERS FROM 200 TO 800 JUST SITTING STILL. WHEN I'M IN TRAFFIC GOING UNDER 40MPH THE RPM STAGGERS BETWEEN 1-2000 RPM IT'S JUST UNSAFE AND WORRISOME AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY FORD! I'VE READY SERVAL DIFFERENT BLOGS WITH VARIOUS CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! IT WOULD BE SAD FOR SOMEONE TO LOSE THEIR LIFE BEHIND THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE FORD WON'T ADDRESS AND HANDLE THE ISSUE
