MY SUV LUNGES FORWARD WHILE IN MOTION IT HAS JUST CUT OFF WHILE IN MOTION WITH NO WARNING. I WAS ON MY CITY STREET AND THE VEHICLE JUST CUT OFF AND I HAD TO TURN THE KEY OVER TO RESTART IT. THEN IT HAS STARTED LUNGING WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN DEC. 2017 & WHEN WE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE LUNGING, THE DEALER TOOK IT IN & SAID THAT IT NEEDED A TUNE-UP. WE PAID $300 ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO AND GOT A TUNEUP AND IT HAS STARTED TO LUNGE AGAIN. IT OCCURS WHILE I AM DRIVING, SOMETIMES ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALSO IN REGULAR CITY TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 35 MPH. RECENTLY IT STARTED CUTTING OFF RANDOMLY. I AM CALLING TO REPORT IF TO FORD & WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE TOMORROW. THE CUTTING OFF HAS HAPPENED TWICE. ONCE IN DEC. AND THEN TODAY, FEB. 3, 2019.

DRIVING TO WORK I NOTICED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE GOT ALL THE WAY UP AND I PULLED OVER, SINCE I WAS DRIVING ON THE I-41 NORTHBOUND HIGHWAY, I DECIDED TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY SINCE I WAS PRETTY CLOSE TO THE EXIT. I CALLED MY HUSBAND FOR ASSISTANCE AND RIGHT AFTER HE DROPPED ME OFF AT WORK, HE CHECKED THE SUV AND NOTICED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS VERY LOW. WE TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND AFTER THE INSPECTION HIS DIAGNOSTIC WAS A 'WATER PUMP FAILURE ' SINCE THE WATER PUMP IS LOCATED 'INSIDE ' THE ENGINE ITSELF, IT WILL BE A 'VERY EXPENSIVE FIX' SO THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED TO REPORT IT SINCE IT MAY BE FOMOCO'S FAULTY. I COMPLETELY AGREED WITH HEM, BECAUSE THE FACT THEY INSTALLED THE WATER PUMP INSIDE THE ENGINE, DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE, BECAUSE JUST A INEXPENSIVE PUMP AFFECTED THE WHOLE ENGINE AND TO REPAIR IT, WILL COST MORE THAN THE SUV ITSELF. THIS HAPPENED ON JANUARY 28TH 2019, AROUND 1:30. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE HOPING THERE IS A 'RECALL ' REGARDING THIS MATTER.

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR LOSES POWER AND WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. BOUGHT IT TO FORD DEALER WAS TOLD IT'S MY THROTTLE BODY. I SEE THIS IS NOT A ISOLATED CASE.

TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR! RECEIVED A LONG OVERDUE LETTER FROM THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO TAKE MY VEHICLE IN TO A FORD DEALER AND HAVE THE INFLATOR FIXED AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK IT IN! WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 2 HOURS! A FEW HOURS LATER MY VEHICLE HADN"T BEEN MOVED AND THEY SAID THEY HAD MORE IMPORTANT JOBS TO DO AND WERE NOT SURE IF THEY WOULD GET TO IT! I HAD MY SON TAKE IT IN AND HE WAS VERY UPSET AND LEFT! THEY HAVE BEEN VERY RUDE AT THIS DEALERSHIP BEFORE! SO IT SEEMS THAT SINCE THIS WAS A FREEBIE IT WASN'T IMPORTANT TO THEM TO FIX THIS PROBLEM!
