Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
HAD A FEW INCIDENTS WHERE IF YOU FORGET TO HIT THE SHUT OFF BUTTON TO THE ECOBOOST THAT WILL SHUT YOUR ENGINE OFF DURING A STOP LIGHT/TRAFFIC STOP TO SAVE GAS, IT WOULD COMPLETELY STALL THE ENGINE OUT WHEN PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT. ONLY HAD TWO INCIDENTS OF THIS,OF COURSE I'VE ALWAYS CHOSE TO PUSH THE BUTTON TO SAVE THE STARTER. BUT THEN RIGHT AFTER THE WARRANTY RAN OUT, THE ENGINE STARTED TO LEAK COOLANT MAKING ONE THINK IT WAS A BLOWN GASKET BY THE WHITE SMOKE. AS I RESEARCHED I'VE FOUND FORUMS THAT STATED THAT IT WAS COMMON. BUT ONLY THE RS SERIES HAD A RECALL AND NOT THE STANDARD. BUT IF IT'S THE SAME COMPONENTS THEN WHY AM I TOLD ONLY THE RS SHOULD HAVE THE RECALL? BUT ANYWAYS MY ENGINE IS UNREPAIRABLE, CAUSE AFTER THE FIRST REPAIR IT DID THE SAME THING. IF A VEHICLE THAT COSTS SO MUCH WON'T LAST UNTIL A 100,000 THEN WHY SELL IT? IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
DURING EARLY LOCKDOWN FOR PANDEMIC I ALLOWED A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO VALET SERVICE MY CAR FOR OIL CHANGE, INSPECTION, ETC AS WELL AS A FUEL TANK RECALL 18S32. CAR WAS SHOWING NO RECALL SYMPTOMS BEFORE THE SERVICE BUT WAS RETURNED TO ME IN VERY POOR CONDITION. ENGINE SEEMS TO VAPOR LOCK AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIMES WITH NO POWER TO ACCELERATE INTO TRAFFIC AND WANTS TO STALL OUT, THEN IT CATCHES ITS BREATHE AND WANTS TO TAKE OFF OUT FROM UNDER ME. I'M A 62 YR OLD WOMAN WHO TRUSTED A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND NOW I HAVE A CAR THAT IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE SERVICE WRITER COULD CARE LESS AND WANTS TO CLAIM THAT I NOW NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. JUST DID A SHODDY JOB AND WANT MORE MONEY FROM ME. I'M SO DISAPPOINTED.

I WILL PROVIDE THE SERVICE RECORD IN THIS FOR YOU TO SEE WHAT WAS REPLACED THE NUMBERS AND CODES ETC . IT WAS AT THE SHOP JAN 10-13TH . WELL THEY DID REPLACE SOME PARTS IT WAS STILL DOING THE JERKING STUTTER WHEN ACCELERATING AFTER THE REPAIRS. AGAIN SHE ASSUMED THAT WAS NORMAL BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT MANY TIMES AND WE THOUGHT MAYBE THE ACTUAL PROBLEM SHE HAD WAS FIXED. IT WAS NOT. THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE WILL NEVER BE FIXED FROM WHAT I AM LEARNING TODAY IN REGARDS TO THIS 2016 FOCUS IN THE NEWS . I AM REACHING OUT FOR SOMEONE TO LISTEN TO ALL OF US. IT IS NOT A COINCIDENCE THAT SO MANY OF US CAN NOT SEEM TO GET OUR VEHICLES FIXED AT LEAST IF THEY CAN NOT FIX THEM TAKE THEM BACK! I NEVER KNEW THIS WAS SUCH A HUGE ONGOING PROBLEM WITH ESSENTIALLY DEFECTIVE VEHICLES.. FORD NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. WE WILL TAKE THE CAR IN AGAIN NEXT WEEK FOR THEM TO TELL US ITS "NORMAL". SEAT ALSO HAS STOPPED ADJUSTING.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. THE CODES WERE P1450 AND PO456 WHICH ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAFETY RECALL OF THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE. THE FUEL TANK IS ALSO DEFORMED. MY CARS VIN IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL SO THEY WILL NOT COVER IT AND I AM EXPECTED TO COVER IT. MY CAR ALSO HAS VIBRATION AT IDLE AND HAS CLUTCH SHUDDER OVER 250 RPM. FORD FIXED MY TRANSMISSION MODULE IN 2018 WITH A PREVIOUS RECALL AFTER IT STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. NOW I AM HAVING ISSUES AGAIN. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THEY UPDATED THE TRANSMISSION MODULE IN 2018 BUT THE CUSTOMER CARE AGENT TRIED TO TELL ME THEY REPLACED THE PARTS ENTIRELY IN 2018 AND NOT JUST UPDATED. I NOTIFIED HER OF THE SERVICE ADVISORS STATEMENT AND THEN SHE WENT BACK TO SAYING MY VIN WASN'T PART OF AN OPEN RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS AT 74,563 MILES AND HAS ALREADY HAD SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES REGARDING TRANSMISSION AND CANISTER PURGE VALVE.
