VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY 2019 DOES NOT HAVE CRUISE CONTROL INSTALLED IN IT, AS A NEWER MODEL VEHICLE I FEEL THAT IT SHOULD HAVE CAME WITH A CRUISE CONTROL. IT'S HARD TO CONTROL THE SPEED AND KEEP IT STEADY DUE TO NOT HAVING A CRUISE CONTROL. IT ALSO CAUSES MY CAR TO USE A LOT MORE GAS THAN IT SHOULD.

WHEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE CLUTCH POP OUT OF GEAR. WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY IT AUTOMATICALLY POPS OUT OF GEAR AND SLOWS DOWN. IF MY CAR IS ON CRAS COMO TELL IT WILL COME OUT OF GEAR. WHEN SHIFTING GEARS IT BECOMES DIFFICULT AND IT SEEMS TO SPEED UP AND SLOW DOWN WHILE DRIVING. SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED AND HAVE HAD TO PULL OFF ROAD TO AVOID BEING HIT. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN GARAGE DUE TO FEAR OF BEING HIT. TOOK TO REPAIR AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NO RECALL NOTICE FOR MY VEHICLE. SO I DISMISSED THE REPAIR BUT STILL HAVE ISSUES LOOKING FOR MECHANIC TO FIX IT.

THE CAR HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE PCM. IT HAS A RECALL THAT WAS NEVER FIXED, BUT A CODE POPS UP REGARDING THAT ISSUE WHEN I SELF DIAGNOSE THE CAR. ALSO, MY TRANSMISSION IS ACTING UP AND A WRENCH LIGHT POPS UP SAYING "ENGINE MALFUNCTION. SERVICE NOW." THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS TOO WHEN ACCELERATING AND NOW THE CAR DRIVES SLOW CONSTANTLY.

I GOT SCARED AND DROVE BACK HOME. I TOOK IT TO FORD LEFT IT THERE TO GET CHECKED. I ASKED ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE THE LIGHT HAD TURNED ON. I WAS TOLD THEY RESET THE MODULE AND THAT THEY SENT ME AN ESTIMATE TO MY EMAIL IF I WANTED TO DO THE REPAIRS THAT THEY RECOMMENDED. I ASKED IF IT WAS OK TO DRIVE THE CAR THEY SAID YES, THAT I WOULD FEEL IT SHUDDER, BUT THAT IT WAS OK TO GO. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT TO WORK, BUT IT STILL TAKES A WHILE WHEN I PRESS THE GAS.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON A CITY HIGHWAY, STARTED CHANGING GEARS AGGRESSIVELY. THE RPM WENT VERY HIGH WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 20-30 MPH, THEN DROPPED WHEN REACHING 40 MPH. I HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE FAR RIGHT LANE AND PUT ON MY FLASHERS BECAUSE I COULD NOT SAFELY DRIVE THE SPEED LIMIT OF 65. I PULLED OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND PULLED MY CAR INTO A PARKING LOT TO CHECK ON IT. IT WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE AND IT WOULD NOT RESTART. WE JUMPED MY CAR AND PUSHED IT OUT OF PARKING SPOT AND DROVE IT TO KENDALL FORD DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT TO GET IT LOOKED AT. THEY DIAGNOSED THE CLUTCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACE FOR $3,000. PARTS NEEDED- FA6Z-7B546-B CLUTCH ASY 660.77 CA6Z-7515-J LEVER ASY 214.99 CA6Z-7515-K LEVER ASY 220.71 EV6Z-7052-D SEAL ASY 53.61 W705448S441 NUT 5.38 X6 AE8Z-7007-A PLATE-CYLIND 17.98 FL910S KIT-ELEMENT 6.82 W709618S442 BOLT 5.38 X2 W520203S442 NUT-HEX 1.64 X2 W520102S442 NUT-LOCKING 1.32 X2 YS4Z-3N324-AA RETAINER 3.61 AE8Z-1177-A SEAL 25.10 X2 I DID NOT THINK IT WAS FAIR TO CHARGE ME $3,000 FOR A DEFECTIVE CLUTCH.
