THE DOORS ON MY 2013 FORD FIESTA WILL NOT LATCH. IT CAME UNLATCHED WHILE DRIVING AND ALL 3 OF MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE BACK SEAT. *TR

VEHICLE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS SOFTWARE UPDATES AND TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT CONTINUES TO WEAR OUT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CLUTCH. VEHICLE HESITATES SEVERELY DURING 1 AND 2ND AUTOMATIC GEARS AND THE TRANSMISSION "SHUDDERS". FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIX IT. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT ONTO A ROAD. THE SLIPPING TRANSMISSION SOMETIMES DOESN'T ALLOW VEHICLE TO NORMALLY ACCELERATE ONTO TRAFFIC. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 FORD FIESTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM FAILED AND THE DOOR WOULD NOT REMAIN CLOSED WHILE DRIVING.

MY CHECK ENGINE CLUSTER CAME ON THE ONE WITH THE WRENCH, I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THE AIRPORT MARINA. I GOT THERE AT 7:45 AM I WAS MET WITH AGITATION WHEN I TOLD HIM MY CHECK ENGINE WARNING CAME ON I NEEDED TO KNOW WHAT IT MEANT. I ALSO INCLUDED COULD HE FIX THE RECALL THAT CAME IN THE MAIL FOR THE 14E08 HE SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T DOING THE TRANSMISSION RECALL FOR ANOTHER 6 WEEKS. I TOLD HIM I WAS UNAWARE OF TRANSMISSION RECALL. BOTH OF OUR ATTITUDES CHANGED HIS OF QUIET MINE OF QUIET AND SHOCK. HE LET ME LEAVE WITHOUT FIXING ANY OF THE RECALLS GAVE ME AN OIL CHANGE, FAILED TO TELL ME OF WHY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND NEVER PUT IT IN MY INVOICE. I CALLED HIM BACK AND ASKED HIM WHY HE DIDN'T FIX, TELL ME OR SET ME UP WITH AND APPOINTMENT TO GET MY RECALLS REPAIRED? HE TRIED TO TELL ME OTHER THINGS I NEEDED INSTEAD AT A COST. I WAS UPSET BUT MADE A APPOINTMENT AND CALLED CUSTOMER RELATIONS. HOWEVER AFTER GOING ONLINE I GOT THE REAL PICTURE! WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR I RETURNED IT AFTER TWO WEEKS BECAUSE OF THE VERY THING ON THE INTERNET, THE SHUDDERING, HESITATION IN MOVING FORWARD AND IT DIDN'T SEEM LIKE THE GAS WAS GETTING TO WHERE IT NEEDED TO GO. SO THE CAR WOULD JERK AND POOT AND SHAKE ALONG WITH RATTLE NOISE. IT ALSO LEAKED IN MY DRIVE WAY. I THOUGHT MAYBE SOMEONE PARKED IN MY STALL AFTER I WENT FOR WORK. NOT THE CASE. I TOOK IT IN, THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL, EACH AND EVERY TIME. THEY EVEN SAID WE WILL LOOK AT IT AND SAID IT WAS A MINOR THING THAT THEY ADJUSTED. I NEVER SAW IT ON PAPER SO I THOUGHT THEY WERE TREATING ME WELL AND FIXING THINGS FOR FREE WITHOUT A PAPER TRIAL. AND THEY WERE!! NOW THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEY RESET IT AND DID NOT DO THE RECALLS SENT UP RED FLAGS. THAT IS CONSIDERED MY FIRST DENIAL OF SERVICE ON RECORD, I FOOLISHLY LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THE OTHERS. WILL TAKE IT TO ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP. *TR

SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CAR, IT SHUTTERS AND JERKS WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. THE CAR FLIPS OUT OF GEAR INTO ANOTHER GEAR WHILE DRIVING. IT'S UNSAFE, AND IT'S A HUGE PROBLEM. *TR

TRANSMISSION ISSUES SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR BRAND NEW IN 2013. CAR JERKS AND ACCELERATES SPORADICALLY. WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP THE CAR DOES NOT RESPOND TO PUSHING ON THE GAS, BUT WILL THEN SUDDENLY TAKE OFF. IT MOVES THROUGH THE GEARS IN A CLUNKY MANNER. MAKES GRINDING NOISES UPON ACCELERATION. THE CAR ROLLS BACK ON HILLS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. FORD HAVE NO RESPONDED IN A HELPFUL MANNER TO MY ENQUIRES AND APPEAR NOT TO BE ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

I UNLOCKED THE DOORS WITH THE AUTO LOCK ON THE KEY. THEN, I PUT SOMETHING IN THE BACK SEAT. WHEN I CLOSED THE DOOR, IT BOUNCED BACK OPEN. I TRIED SEVERAL THINGS TO GET IT TO RESET INCLUDING EVERYTHING MENTIONED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL, BUT IT WOULD NOT LATCH. I LOOKED AT THE LATCH ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR TO SEE HOW THEY WERE DIFFERENT AND PUSHED THE MECHANISM BACK . THEN IT STUCK IN THE LOCKED POSITION AND THAT DOOR WOULDN'T SHUT. I AGAIN TRIED TURNING THE CAR AND THE AUTO-LOCK SYSTEM OFF AND ON, BUT NOTHING WOULD AFFECT THOSE TWO DOORS. I FINALLY HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED BECAUSE I COULDN'T DRIVE IT HOME WITH TWO DOORS THAT WOULDN'T LATCH. *TR
