MULTIPLE ISSUE'S WITH MY FORD FIESTA (2013) TRANSMISSION. HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE FORD DEALER TO GET THE TCM RE-PROGRAMMED ABOUT 3 TIMES AND HAD IT REPLACED TWICE. TAKEN IT BACK FOR THE SHUTTERING ISSUE.CAR WOULD STALL AFTER MOVING FORWARD FROM A COMPLETE STOP. HAVE HAD THE CLUTCHES REPLACED IN IT. TOOK IT BACK AGAIN ON JULY 5TH 2019 FOR AN ISSUE WITH IT SLAMMING INTO REVERSE. WAS TOLD IT WAS READY ABOUT A WEEK LATER ON JULY 11TH. AFTER PAYING $60, THE SERVICE GUY TELLS ME IT WILL NOT GO INTO DRIVE AFTER LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE. I KEEP CALLING AND KEEP GETTING TOLD THAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR A TOOL TO COME IN TO TRY AND GET INTO DRIVE. TODAY IS JULY 24TH 2019 AND STILL NO CAR.

SINCE WEEK 1 THE CAR (WHEN AT A STOP AND IN GEAR) IF YOU PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AT ANY LEVEL THE CAR WOULD DO NOTHING THEN AFTER ROUGHLY 3-6 SECONDS IT WOULD RANDOMLY LAUNCH FORWARD. IT WOULD ALSO SEEMINGLY GO INTO NEUTRAL ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH LED TO A COMPLETE LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN ON A NORMAL ROAD AT ANY SPEED AND IS COMPLETELY RANDOM AND ONE TIME AT A RED LIGHT WE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE THEN POWER SUDDENLY CUT OUT AND WE GOT REAR ENDED LIGHTLY. I TOLD PETER'S FORD IN NASHUA NH DURING OUR 1ST 3 OIL CHANGES ABOUT THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD IMPLICITLY THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY NORMAL AND I SHOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT AS IT WILL JUST GO AWAY ON ITS OWN. ESSENTIALLY I WAS BRUSHED OFF DESPITE 3 COMPLAINTS THAT NEVER LED TO THE DEALER CHECKING THE CAR. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN CONSTANT SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW IN 2016.

TRANSMISSION SLIPS OUT OF GEAR DURING NORMAL CITY DRIVING. I HAVE HAD THE CAR COMPLETELY LOCK UP, BECOME UNABLE TO DRIVE, AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME I HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE. I'VE HAD THE TRANSMISSION COMPUTER RESTARTED, ONE OF THE CLUTCHES REPLACED, THEN A FEW MONTHS AFTER THAT HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN DUE TO "IMMOBILIZER MALFUNCTION" DESIGN FOR THE CAR IS GREAT BUT THE MECHANICS ARE TERRIBLE.

TRANSMISSION CONSTANTLY SLIPS. TRANSMISSION SURGES AND STALLS DAILY. THE TRANSMISSION ACTUALLY COMPLETELY WENT OUT 2 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE AND WAS REPLACED - THE TRANSMISSION NEVER WORKED PROPERLY. THIS CAR WAS IN FOR SERVICE ON 4 OCCASIONS AND LEFT SERVICE WITH THE SAME OR WORSE SYMPTOMS. EARNHARDT FORD IN CHANDLER, AZ STATED IT WAS FIXED EACH TIME AND PRETENDED THEY DID NOT FEEL THE SLIPS, SURGES AND STALLS WHEN TEST DROVE WITH ME AFTER SERVICE EACH TIME. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY WERE GOING TO DO. **I DO NOT HAVE SERVICE DATES WITH ME AT THIS TIME - THE DATE IN "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN" IS A GUESSTIMATE OF THE TIME AROUND SERVICING.

FORD FIESTA TRANSMISSION. I HAVE BEEN A LONG STANDING FORD CUSTOMER AND HAVE TRIED TO STAND BYE THE COMPANY BUT I CAN NO LONGER BE SILENT REGARDING MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN THIS CAR. I HAVE HAD THE CAR REPEATABILITY REPAIRED, THE CAR HAS PUT ME AT RISK MULTIPLE TIMES, FORD HAS NOT BEEN TRUTHFUL WITH ME ALONG THE WAY. I HAVE COMMUNICATED DIRECTLY TO FORD MY CONCERNS AND THEY HAVE LEFT ME WITH A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE, UNRELIABLE NOR SHOULD I TRY TO DUMP ON SOME UNSUSPECTING PERSON. THE COMPANY, COURT SYSTEM AND THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO WORK TOGETHER TO GET PEOPLE OUT OF THESE CARS ASAP. THIS IS WRONG AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE, IF THIS INFORMATION NEEDS TO GO TO ANOTHER FEDERAL AGENCY, PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH THEM. THIS CAR HAS BEEN A DEFECTIVE SAFETY HAZARD SINCE DAY ONE SINCE I BOUGHT IT, 8/22/13 AND IT HAS NOR WILL IT EVER BE RIGHT. PLEASE GET INVOLVED WITH THIS SYSTEMATIC SAFETY FAILURE.

IN EARLY 2013, I TOOK MY CAR TO MY DEALER BECAUSE OF TRANSMISSION CONCERNS, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL FOR MY TRANSMISSION. DECEMBER 2013, MY CAR WOULD BALK, DID NOT WANT TO PROCEED WHEN I PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL. TOOK IT BACK TO MY DEALER. THEY FOUND THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRANSMISSION. THEY STATED THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART. I EXPLAINED I WAS GETTING READY TO GO OUT OF TOWN. THE SERVICE ADVISOR STATED, IT WOULD NOT BE SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE MY CAR. I ENDED UP LEAVING MY CAR THERE & RENTED A CAR FOR 2 WEEKS. LESS THAN A YEAR LATER, SAME THING. THEY REPLACED THE PART. AFTER THAT VISIT, THERE WAS A TERRIBLE RACKET COMING FROM UNDERNEATH MY CAR. LESS THAN A YEAR LATER, HAD TO HAVE THE PART REPLACED AGAIN. I COMPLAINED ABOUT THE NOISE. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS WIND NOISE FROM COMING FROM A HEAT SHIELD. I MOVED TO ANOTHER STATE, MY CAR COULD HARDLY GO UP A HILL. TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALER. I NEEDED THAT PART REPLACED AGAIN & NEEDED BEARINGS & OTHER PARTS REPLACED IN MY TRANSMISSION. THE NOISE WAS STILL THERE & THEY FOUND ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH THE INTERNAL PARTS OF MY TRANSMISSION. THEY HAD TO COMPLETELY REBUILD MY TRANSMISSION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 FORD FIESTA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WITHOUT WARNING AND WAS DIFFICULT TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HERITAGE FORD (LOCATED AT 2075 EDSEL LN NW, CORYDON, IN 47112, (812) 738-3284) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF A FAULT CODE; HOWEVER, THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2011 FORD FIESTA BASICALLY WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT, BRAND NEW.BUT, JUST PRIOR TO THE 10,000 MILE MARK I STARTED EXPERIENCING SEVERE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, SHUDDERING, STALLING OUT, AND EVENTUALLY OVERALL FAILURE. ALL OF THESE FAILING HAPPENED EITHER UPON TAKING OFF OR DURING TRANSIT. I'VE HAD THE CAR LURCH AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR IN TRAFFIC AS WELL AS FAIL WHILE DRIVING DURING RUSH OUR TRAFFIC; PREDOMINANTLY ON CITY STREETS BUT ALSO OCCASIONALLY ON THE HIGHWAY AT LOWER SHIFTS. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN "FIXED" AND "ASSESSED" MORE TIMES THAN I BELIEVE AND CAR PROBLEM SHOULD BE WITHOUT BEING RESOLVED. EVERY TIME I WOULD DISCUSS WHY IT CONTINUES THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WOULD ALWAYS SAY "THAT'S JUST HOW THEY WORK" OR SOME OTHER NONCHALANT VERBAGE TO SHRUG OFF THE PERSISTING PROBLEM THAT I'M PAYING FOR. THIS CONTINUED TROUBLE LEAVES ME WITH ALMOST NO TRUST IN MY VEHICLE AND HAS COST ME MORE MONEY THAN I WOULD CARE TO ADMIT TO. I BELIEVE FORD OWES ME EITHER A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON MY FAULTY VEHICLE OR A BRAND NEW REPLACEMENT FOR THE TIME AND FINANCIAL DAMAGES I HAVE INCURRED DUE TO THEIR THOUGHTLESS/ CARELESS PRACTICES AS WELL AS THE DESTRUCTION OF MY PEACE OF MIND. ATTACHED IS A PDF OF MY FULL VEHICLE SERVICE HISTORY THROUGH CAVALIER FORD FROM 2011-2019 AS WELL AS PEP BOYS WHICH ALSO INCLUDES EVIDENCE OF ATTEMPTED FRAUD IN RELATION TO THE STATE OF MY REAR BREAKS AND SHOCKS IN THE LAST YEAR.

SINCE I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED, I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ISSUES THAT ARE SEEMINGLY RELATED TO FORD'S DPS6 TRANSMISSION AND ELECTRICAL WIRING. MY GEARS SLIP OUT OF PLACE AND MY CAR DOESN'T SEEM TO WANT TO ACCELERATE OR SLOW DOWN PROPERLY. MY HORN AND FRONT WINDOWS DON'T WORK AND WE'VE TRIED SWITCHING FUSES AND CHECKING THE DOOR WIRING. IN RELATION TO THE TRANSMISSION, I WAS ON WESTBOUND I4 OUTSIDE OF DOWNTOWN ORLANDO AROUND 2:00 4/24/19 (MY BIRTHDAY) AND MY CAR ACCELERATED FORWARD AS I BRAKED, WHICH MADE ME HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THERE WERE NO CODES, NO LIGHTS, NO WARNINGS ON MY CAR AND IT'S UNDER 100,000 MILES. I WAS AS A RESULT FAULTED FOR MY ACCIDENT WHICH SKYROCKETED MY INSURANCE. WE SPENT MONEY FIXING THE DAMAGE FROM THE ACCIDENT, NOT REALIZING THAT FORD HAS BEEN LYING ABOUT THEIR TRANSMISSION. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED AND HAVE HAD IT FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND, THE PERSON WHO HAD IT BEFORE ME DROVE IT AS A WORK CAR. I ATTEMPTED TO BRING MY CAR IN ON 7/19, AS I FOUND AN ARTICLE FROM DETROIT FREE PRESS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SAYING FORD DEALERSHIPS WOULD BE ABLE TO ATTEND TO THE ISSUE. I CALLED THREE DEALERSHIPS AND ONE HUNG UP ON ME AND THE OTHER TWO SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. I DO NOT FEEL DRIVING SAFE IN MY CAR AT THIS POINT AS FORD IS DODGING THE ISSUE AT HAND. I AM A 21 YEAR OLD SUPPORTING HERSELF AND I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX ANYMORE ISSUES THAT HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THIS INSANELY UNBELIEVABLE ERROR FROM FORD.

I PURCHASED A 2014 FORD FIESTA NEW IN JANUARY 2014. IT HAS THE INFAMOUS DPS6 TRANSMISSION. IT WAS EXPLAINED TO ME THAT IT IS A STANDARD TRANSMISSION IN AN AUTOMATIC BOX. IT DID THE SHUDDER FROM DAY ONE. I DIDN'T THINK THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG BECAUSE I HAD DRIVEN MANY STANDARD TRANSMISSION VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS AND FIGURED IT WAS SUPPOSED TO ACT THAT WAY. IN JANUARY OF 2018, I HAD STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT ON A BUSY STREET IN COLORADO SPRINGS, CO WHERE I LIVE. THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND MY CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 1ST GEAR OR GO FASTER THAN 5 MPH. I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND AFTER SITTING THERE FOR 20 MINUTES AND SHIFTED THE GEARS BOX FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL TO DRIVE, I FINALLY GOT BACK ON THE ROAD AND THE CAR SHIFTED BUT VERY SLOWLY. THIS WAS ON A SUNDAY. THE NEXT DAY I MADE AN SERVICE APPOINTMENT WITH PHIL LONG FORD WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THEY KNEW IMMEDIATELY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND TOLD ME IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THEM THAT WEEK AND THEY RAN THE VIN AND IT WAS NOT IN THE WARRANTY BATCH TO REPLACE THE CLUTCHES. THEY CALLED FORD AND ASKED THEM TO COVER THE REPAIR. FORD DECLINED. THE SERVICE ADVISER GAVE ME FORD'S 800 CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE. THEY BUILT A CASE BASED ON MY INFORMATION. A DAY LATER I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL AND EMAIL TELLING ME THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND FORD WOULD NOT GIVE ME ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. PHIL LONG FORD ESTIMATED THE REPAIR AT $2,200.00 BUT SINCE FORD WOULD NOT COVER THE COST AND I PURCHASED THE FIESTA FROM THEM, THEY DID THE REPAIR FOR $1,500.00 OUT OF POCKET COST. I'M JUST A SIMPLE WORKING MAN AND CAN'T AFFORD THOSE TYPES OF REPAIRS. I HAD TO PUT THE CHARGE ON MY CREDIT CARD. I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER FORD DUE TO THEIR TOTAL LACK OF CONCERN AND NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. THE CAR STILL DOESN'T OPERATE PROPERLY.

TAKATA RECALL MY A/C STARTED TO FAIL WITH NO WARNING. AFTER PUTTING MY CAR IN PARK, SMOKE STARTED TO RISE FROM THE ROOF AND A DARK COLOR LIQUID (PERHAPS OIL) STARTED TO LEAK FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP, AND THEY CONCLUDED THE COOLANT WAS LOW AND IT MIGHT HAVE CAUGHT CONTACT WITH THE ENGINE, CAUSING IT TO SMOKE. THIS INITIAL CONCLUSION FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP THAN LED TO THEM CLAIMING; THE TUBES HAD A HOLE, THE FAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, AND THE BELT WAS HEAT DAMAGED. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN CASH FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP AS USED, BUT A "FORD CERTIFIED" CAR; MEANING IT WENT THROUGH A RIGOROUS 172 POINT INSPECTION WHERE THEY EXAMINE THE CARS COOLANT, ENGINE, TRANSMISSION, BREAKS, ETC. HOWEVER, THIS IS FAR FROM THE TRUTH BECAUSE MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY FORD CERTIFIED VEHICLE THE TRANSMISSION BLEW OUT AND FORD HAD TO REPLACE/FIX IT FOR FREE. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR A YEAR AND A HALF, AND I'VE ALREADY HAVE HAD TWO MAJOR CAR PROBLEMS! I REQUESTED FOR A BUYBACK AND FORD SAYS THEY AREN'T ABLE TO DO SO. I AM FRUSTRATED THAT I PAID FOR THIS FORD CERTIFIED VEHICLE IN CASH, JUST TO BE DUPED. MY MAKE AND MODEL HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HAVE BOTH COOLANT AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, I BELIEVE MY CAR HAS BOTH THESE ISSUES. IN CONCLUSION, I HAVE BEEN SOLD A VEHICLE THAT IS FALSELY ADVERTISED AND A DANGER ON THE ROAD, WITH LITTLE TO NO HELP FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP.

STARTED THE CAR ON ONE HOT AND HUMID DAY AND, WHILE WAITING FOR MY WIFE AND AUNT AT A DRIVEWAY AND WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GEAR SHIFTER, I SAW THE GEAR DISPLAY MOMENTARILY JUMPED FROM PARK TO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK TO PARK ON THE DISPLAY PANEL. IT HAPPENED A FEW TIMES AND I THOUGHT THAT WAS ODD. THE CAR HAD ALREADY UNDERGONE THREE TRANSMISSION OVERHAULS BEFORE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED SO I WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS THAT PLAGUED THE CAR, FROM GRINDING GEARS TO SHUDDERING AND SLOW SHIFTING IN LOW SPEED OR AT AN INCLINE, ALL I HAD EXPERIENCED BEFORE. BUT THE SLIPPING GEAR WAS NEW. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT IT AT FIRST AND DROVE OFF WHEN MY WIFE AND AUNT GOT ON. AT THE SECOND STOP SIGN, THE GEAR SLIPPED MOMENT AFTER I ACCELERATED FOLLOWING THE STOP. THERE WAS NO WARNING AT ALL ' NO ABNORMAL SOUND, NO WARNING MESSAGE, NO ENGINE LIGHT ON OR BLINKING. THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND THERE WAS NO MORE POWER TO THE WHEELS. ONLY THEN DID I NOTICE THE GEAR DISPLAY SHOWED THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL, BUT THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS STILL IN DRIVE. FORTUNATELY, THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS AROUND US. I IMMEDIATELY TRIED MOVING THE GEAR SHIFTER BUT IT WAS STUCK IN DRIVE WHILE THE GEAR WAS IN NEUTRAL. I STOPPED THE CAR AND TRIED AGAIN, TO NO AVAIL. I THEN TURNED OFF THE CAR AND WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER INTO PARK. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER INTO DRIVE, AND THE GEAR COOPERATED. I TURNED AROUND AND GOT BACK TO HOME SAFELY. I HAD COPED WITH ALL OF THE EARLIER TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR, THE TROUBLE OF GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP REPEATEDLY, AND EVEN ADJUSTED MY DRIVING HABIT WITH THE UNIQUE TEMPERAMENT OF THIS CAR. HOWEVER, WITH THE GEAR SLIPPING FROM DRIVE WITHOUT ANY FOREWARNING, I DID NOT FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE. WE THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THE GEAR HAD SLIPPED WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY.

AFTER FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL, THE CAR WILL NOT START FOR AT LEAST 5 MINUTES. ONCE DRIVING THE RPMS WILL FLUCTUATE RAPIDLY WHILE I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS. THE CAR WILL HAVE TROUBLE ACCELERATING AND THEN SPEED UP AND I HAVE TO BE CAREFUL TO STOP IT. IF I HAVE TO STOP AND START TOO MANY TIMES IN TRAFFIC THIS WILL ALSO CAUSE THE RPMS TO FLUCTUATE AND THEN THE CAR WILL STALL. I HAVE TO THROW IT IN PARK AND THEN TRY TO RESTART REAL FAST AND WHEN I RESTART IT IT ACCELERATES QUICKLY.
