THE DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE THEY SAY THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO DO SO

BOTH ISSUES I HAVE HAD WITH MY CAR NUMEROUS TIMES. THE ENGINE LIGHT HAS NEVER COME ON AND THROUGH RESEARCH, I GUESS IT HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OTHERS. WHEN IN TRAFFIC MOVING SLOWLY, WARM TEMPERATURE, MY CAR STALLS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. TODAY, IT DID WHILE TURNING LEFT AT A CORNER. I ALMOST GOT HIT. I HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND RESTART THE CAR. IT HAPPENS DURING RUSH HOUR SO I END UP MAKING OTHER DRIVERS ANGRY WHICH IS DANGEROUS. THE OTHER ONGOING ISSUE I HAVE IS THE CAR ACCELERATING BY ITSELF. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS AND HAS GOT INCREASINGLY WORSE. I NOW HAVE OTHER WITNESS' PEOPLE WHO HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR AND HAD IT HAPPEN. AT MIDAS WHERE I GET MY CAR REPAIRED, THEY DROVE IT AND COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE BUT DEFINITELY SCARED HIM. THE MECHANIC THOUGHT IT IS COMPUTER RELATED. THEY TRIED...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 FORD MUSTANG. WHILE TURNING ON THE HEADLIGHTS, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING FOR QUITE AWHILE. I WAS RESEARCHING A LUNGE PROBLEM, DISCOVERED IT IS FREQUENTLY HAPPENING TO OTHERS. IT HAPPENS WHEN I AM GOING A VERY SLOW SPEED. IT HAS HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC MANY TIMES WHICH IS SCARY, IN MY HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS, WE HAVE SPEED BUMPS SO YOU MUST DRIVE SLOWLY AND MAKING TURNS. IT JUST IMMEDIATELY ALL SHUTS DOWN AND THE CAR STOPS. I ACTUALLY TRY TO AVOID TRAFFIC ON FREEWAY BECAUSE IT HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES. I HAVE DISCUSSED, IN THE PAST, THIS WITH MY MECHANIC VARIOUS TIMES AND MADE SURE EVERYTHING IN MY CAR IS FINE. I HAVE REPLACED EVERYTHING AND MY CAR IS WELL MAINTAINED. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. *TR

DRIVING AT INTERSTATE SPEED CAR LUNGING ACTING AS IF THE ENGINE WAS WANTING TO CUT OUT AND THEN SEEMS TO 'CATCH'. I HAVE SINCE NOTICED IT DOING THE SAME WITH IN TOWN DRIVING. SO SPEEDS SEEM NOT TO BE AN ISSUE. I HAVE DONE SOME ONLINE SEARCHING AND HAVE FOUND FORD HAS ISSUES WITH AUTO THROTTLE BODY AND THE SYMPTOMS SOUND EXACTLY LIKE THE ISSUES I'M HAVING WITH MY CAR. I FOUND THIS, AND FILED THE COMPLAINT AND AM GOING TO BE IN CONTACT WITH MY FORD SERVICE CENTER IN REGARDS TO THE FEB. 2014 UPDATE WHERE AFFECTED OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT FORD AND MENTION CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03. : RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE FORD THROTTLE BODY COULD COME FROM PETITION THE NORTH CAROLINA CONSUMERS COUNCIL (NCCC) HAS OFFICIALLY PETITIONED THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA) FOR A DEFECT INVESTIGATION OF ALLEGED THROTTLE BODY FAILURES IN 2005-2012 FORD ESCAPE VEHICLES SHARING THE...

WHILE DRIVING CAR SHUTS OFF. NO STEERING. HARMONIC BALANCER FAIL OFF. HIT A DITCH. *TR

I HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM BEFORE BUT SINCE THEN TWO OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE DRIVEN MY CAR HAVE EXPERIENCED IT. I NOW WARN ANYONE WHO HAS TO DRIVE MY CAR THAT IT DRIVES BY ITSELF. I HAVE RECEIVED DIRTY LOOKS FROM PEOPLE, BEEN YELLED OUT, DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. IT ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. I WILL BE BEHIND SOMEONE AT A LIGHT, FOOT ON BRAKE AND IT WILL START REVVING. THEY THINK I AM MESSING WITH THEM. I WILL BE IN NEUTRAL AND IT WILL DRIVE FASTER. I WILL BE IN REVERSE SLOWLY AND IT FLOORS. I HAD TO BE TAKEN TO EMERGENCY BY A NEIGHBOR. I WARNED HER AND WHEN WE WERE RETURNING HOME, SHE PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND IT JUST STARTED TO SPEED UP FAST. SHE NAILED DOWN THE BRAKE. IT SCARED HER TO DEATH. SHE THANKED ME FOR WARNING HER BECAUSE OTHERWISE WE WOULD HAVE CRASHED...

I'M NOT SURE HOW TO EXPLAIN BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT MOTORS BUT I'LL TRY. THERE WAS A SQUEAK IN MY CAR IT WOULD COME AND GO. I BROKE DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY. THE MECHANIC SAID THE HARMONIC BALANCE BROKE WHICH BROKE THE CRANK SENOR. THE CAR JUST DIED ON THE HIGHWAY. THE MECHANIC SAID IT IS COMMON IN MUSTANGS IN FACT HE JUST REPLACED ONE LAST WEEK. I DON'T DRIVE MY CAR OFTEN AS YOU CAN TELL IT ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND IT IS A 2007 AND WHEN I BOUGHT IT, HAD 3 MILES ON IT.. NOW MY QUESTION IS IF THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS AND I ALREADY HAD THIS HAPPEN TO ME DO I GET PAID BACK.. *TR

MY 2007 FORD MUSTANG HAS HAD A WATER LEAK UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE AREA THAT HAS AND IS STILL CAUSING ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE IN THE CAR. EVERYTIME IT RAINS WATER GETS INTO THE VEHICLE AND CAUSES MAJOR DAMAGE. FORD DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPAIR IT UNDER WARRANTY AND MY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE ENORMOUS. THIS WATER LEAK IS A TSB ON FORD'S SITE WHICH MEANS THEY KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE 05-09 MODELS. MY CAR IS NOW OUT OF COMMISION AND WILL NOT START. I HAVE REPLACED TWO BATTERIES OVER THE LAST YEAR BECAUSE OF THE WATER LEAK CAUSING SHORTAGES IN MY CAR. THIS CAR IS NOW A LEMON BECCAUSE OF THE SEVERE WATER DAMAGE FORD HAS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO RECEIVE. I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT WILL NOT START AND FORD WILL NOT REPAIR WITHOUT PAYMENT. I AM SENDING THIS COMPLAINT SO THAT A...
