MY 2015 FORD FIESTA STALLS OUT EVERY TIME AFTER I GET GAS. IT TAKES A COUPLE OF TRIES TO GET IT STARTED UP AGAIN. ONCE I DO GET IT STARTED IT DOES DRIVE JERKY WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION, AND SEEMS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT. AFTER ABOUT DRIVING FOR 15 MINS MOST OF THE TIME MY CAR GOES BACK TO DRIVING NORMAL UNTIL I GET GAS AGAIN. I RECENTLY SAW THE FORD FOCUS HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A FUEL TANK PROBLEM WHICH CAUSED IT STALL OUT AFTER FUELING, THIS SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO MY PROBLEM WITH MY FORD FIESTA.

HIGHWAY MILES UNDER , 100,000 . VEHICLE WOULDN'T START IN YARD, GOT A JUMP, TOOK IT TO CROWN FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, FORD STATED THEY TOOK CARE OF RECALL AND, CAR WAS READY AND I DROVE 3 MILES, CAR STARTED STALING AND WOULDN'T GO UP THE HILL, RETURNED CAR TO FORD, I WAS TOLD THE CAR HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE- CAR IS JUST 3 YEARS OLD I WAS SOLD A DEFECTIVE CAR.

EVER SINCE I GOT THE CAR, WHEN I PUT FUEL IN IT, AND TURN IT ON, IT'LL STALL IF I'M STOPPED OR AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT. IT'LL DO IT FOR THE WHOLE DAY AFTER I PUT GAS IN IT. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF PRIOR TO FILLING IT IS EMPTY, HALF TANK OR FULL TANK. IF I SIT AT A LIGHT LONG ENOUGH AFTER FILLING, IT TURNS OFF.

MANY TIMES, MY CAR DOES NOT DOWN SHIFT AFTER BEING IN A PASSING GEAR AND THEN LETTING OFF THE GAS. IT STAYS AT 5,000 RPM FOR A FEW SECONDS. JULY, 2018, MY CAR WAS STOPPED AS I WAS WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. AS I PRESSED ON THE GAS TO TURN LEFT, MY CAR SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL. BECAUSE MY BRAKE LIGHTS WEREN'T ON, MY CAR WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BY AN APPROACHING CAR. SEPTEMBER 3, 2018 MY CAR WAS STOPPED, I PUT IT INTO REVERSE TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPOT. WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR SHIMMIED AND MOVED FORWARD INSTEAD OF REVERSE.

REAR PASSENGER DOOR LATCH FAILED. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE LATCH FOR 2014 FORD FIESTAS, BUT NOT THE 2015. THE DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE, OR STAY CLOSED. THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE TIME, THIS WAS ALSO THE LEAST USED DOOR ON THE VEHICLE. I AM JUST GRATEFUL MY 4 YR OLD DAUGHTER WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAR, AND THAT IT DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING.

EVERY SINGLE TIME I STOP TO PUT GAS IN MY CAR I TURN MY CAR OFF PUMP MY GAS AND ONCE I CRANK MY CAR BACK UP FOR AT MY CAR DIES AND I HAVE TO TURN MY IGNITION OFF THEN RESTART MY CAR. AND THEN MY CAR WILL START TO FLUTTER LIKE IT'S HAVING TROUBLE GETTING GAS TO GO INTO THE RIGHT PLACE
