TRANSMISSION IS MAKING A LOUD HUMMIMG NOISE WHILE DRIVING. DEALER CONTACTED. FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK

TWO CERTIFIED FORD DELAERS, AS WELL AS TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. ALL FOUR CONCUR THE PROBLEM IS THERE, BUT NONE ARE SURE HOW TO FIX IT. FORD HAS BEEN NOTIFIED, AND AS OF THIS DATE, HAS GONE MORE THAN ONE WEEK WITHOUT RESPONDING TO COMPLAINTS THROUGH THEIR WEB SITE.NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK

TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SLIPPING INTERMITTENTLY. RPM'S WILL NOT GO DOWN IMMEDIATLY AFTER IT SHIFTS TO HIGHER GEAR. CALLED DEALER, AND WAS TOLD UNLESS THEY COULD REPRODUCE THIS NOTHING WOULD BE DONE. *AK

LETTER WRITTEN FOR 1 1/2 YEARS, CRUISE CONTROL CABLES NOT INSTALLED, LIED ABOUT TRANSMISSION. *AK

CAR STALLS OUT WHILE IN MOTION. HAS HAPPENED TURNING A CORNER, ON A BUMPY ROAD (2" ROAD CONSTRUCTION DROP OFF), AND FOR NO APPARANT REASON. DOES NOT HAPPEN VERY OFTEN, BUT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IF IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. 2) WHEN TRYING TO PUT CAR IN REVERSE WHILE STOPPED (COMING OUT OF MY GARAGE OR A PARKING SPACE, FOR EXAMPLE) GEAR SHIFT REFUSES TO GO INTO REVERSE. PUTTING INTO FIRST DOES NOT HELP. I HAVE FOUND THAT LETTING UP ON THE CLUTCH JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT WILL USUALLY LET IT GO INTO REVERSE. 3) SEATBELTS ARE MUCH TO SENSITIVE. JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD YOU CAN HEAR THEM REPEATEDLY CLICKING, LOCKING AND UNLOCKING. YOU HAVE TO MAKE ANY MOVEMENT VERY SLOWLY OR ELSE YOU WILL BE SNAPPED BACK TO THE SEAT. TURNING TO LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER AT TRAFFIC WILL GET YOU LOCKED IN. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MUCH SAFER FOR THE...

WHEN PARKING, VEHICLE ROLLED BACK WHEN GEARSHIFT IN PARK POSITION. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL BACK AFTER STOPPING AND PUTTING GEARSHIFT IN DRIVE. AFTER TOW AND REPAIR OWNER TOLD THE CABLE HAD BECOME DISCONNECTED BETWEEN THE GEARSHIFT AND TRANSMISSION. IT WAS REATTACHED AND SECURITY STRAP PUT IN PLACE. DEALER REPORTED NO KNOWLEDGE OF WHY IT BECAME DISCONNECTED.

CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO CLOSE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR BECAUSE LATCH WOULDN'T SECURE IT. SAMETHING WAS HAPPENING WITH PASSENGER'S DOOR. ALSO, ALL FOUR WINDOWS WOULD NOT ROLL UP THE RIGHT WAY, BUT INSTEAD, WOULD GO OVER THE TOP. IN ADDITION, AFTER 600 MILES TRANSMISSION FAILED WITHOUT A WARNING. *AK

TRANSMISSION REPLACED. *MJS

WHILE DRIVING ALONG AT ANY SPEED VEHICLE STALLED . THIS HAPPENED MORE DURING STOPPING. WHEN VEHICLE STALLED, ALL POWER WAS LOST, WHICH MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL VEHICLE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN CHECKED BY THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS PROBLEM. DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. *AK
