This is a Bluetooth issue. When you’re talking on the phone, after period of time you begin to sound like a robot. You have to take your phone off of Bluetooth and put it back on Bluetooth taking your eyes off the road. Many times it’s while you’re on the highway. My husband works for a company who purchased 600 cars for their last project and everyone he knows has the same issue. It’s definitely widespread. The Ford company says you have to have a radio person to deal with it and they don’t have a radio person on staff at some locations and others they’re only there for certain days of the week. this is a dangerous situation.

I came in for a TPSC sensor recall and discovered that both of my rear tires were BALD and my front tires were worn. My brand new car has 23000 miles. I only have had this car for 2 years. Tire size P 225 / 55 R 19

I experienced hearing a sloshing noise in my trunk, so when I open the trunk and inspected the battery compartment, it was completely flooded with water. The negative terminal is submerged in water and the positive wires are submerged in water. I tried to scoop out the water and got most all of it out, the next day it was full again!

One week after I bought this vehicle brand new, the curtain airbag cover on the driver's side and the passenger side started coming separated from the headliner creating a gap where my airbag can be seen. I took it to the dealership and was told there was going to be a recall but I never got one in the mail. Now I am told by the dealership there is not a recall and I have passed my warranty of 36000 miles and would have to pay to have it repaired. My concern is in case of an accident the airbag won't deploy as it's supposed to. This seems to be a safety issue and shouldn't be limited by a warranty.
