REAR BRAKE (PASSENGER SIDE) SEIZED UP CAUSING RAPID BRAKE PAD WEAR, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THE REAR BRAKES REPLACED 4TIMES SINCE NEW VEHICLE PURCHASE. *TR

SINCE THIS VEHICLE WAS MADE WITH NO GAS CAP MY ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. ANY LITTLE BIT OF DIRT I DRIVE YET GETS INTO THE SEAL OF THE GAS TANK SO MY ENGINE LIGHT POPS ON AND STATES THERE IS SOME SORT OF LEAK IN THE SYSTEM. I CAN'T AFFORD TO KEEP TAKING IT IN TO PAY AND ARM AND A LEG FOR THE DEALERSHIP JUST TO BLOW OUT THE SEAL. SO MY ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW IF THERE IS AN ACTUAL PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE OR IF IT'S JUST THAT DIRT IN THE SEAL OF THE GAS TANK. BIG MISTAKE BY FORD AND THEY SHOULD FIX IT OR THEY WILL DEFINITELY LOSE MY BUSINESS...WHICH I'VE BEEN FORD LOYAL SINCE I WAS OLD ENOUGH TO DRIVE. I WILL ALSO DETER ANYONE ELSE I KNOW FROM BUYING FOR JUST FOR THE CAPLESS GAS TANK FEATURE!!!!! *TR

I HAD 2 WHEEL STUDS BREAK ON THE CAR, JUST A FEW MONTHS AFTER DELIVERY. FORD DID A RECALL AND ALL WHEEL STUDS WERE REPLACED IN 2011. I BELIEVE THAT 4 MORE STUDS HAVE BROKEN SINCE THAT REPLACEMENT. THEY SEEM TO BREAK EVERY 6 MONTHS OR SO. THIS IS A SAFETY DEFECT THAT FORD SHOULD CORRECT (THE 1ST FIX DIDN'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM). *TR

BRAKE CALIPER SLIDE WILL FREEZE UP AND GRIND ON BRAKES AND ROTORS. NEW BRAKES AND PADS WERE PUT ON 1 YEAR AGO AND THE LEFT REAR CALIPER HAS COMPLETELY FROZEN UP. FROM DOING ONLINE RESEARCH THIS IS A SEVERE PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, A MESSAGE APPEARED THAT SAID TO SERVICE POWER STEERING AND ADVANCETRAC. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT HOME, TURNED OFF THE CAR, RESTARTED IT, THE ERROR MESSAGE READ SERVICE POWER STEERING NOW/SERVICE ADVANCETRAC NOW. WE WERE TRAVELING ABOUT 40MPH WHEN THE MESSAGE FIRST APPEARED AND I LOST POWER STEERING. *TR

WHEN TRAVELING HOME FROM WORK ON NOVEMBER 4TH, 2013. VEHICLE'S ADVANCETRAC SYSTEM FAILED.THIS MADE IT DIFFICULT TO TURN CAR AS IT MADE THE STEERING WHEEL VERY STIFF. THIS CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHEN ENTERING A PARKING LOT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE VEHICLE JUST BECAME "OUT OF WARRANTY" AT 75,000 MILES. THE ESTIMATED COST OF REPAIR WAS $1762.00 HAVING THE VEHICLE WITHOUT ITS POWER STEERING HAS ALSO AFFECTED MY TIRES. WHICH NEEDED TO BE CONSTANTLY REPLACED. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW. IN 2010 I LOST POWER STEERING, AT LOW SPEED, SEVERAL TIMES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID NOT FIX THE CAR AS THEY COULDN'T FIND AN ISSUE. ON THE FORTH OCCASION I LOST POWER STEERING AND THEY DECIDED TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING RACK, WHICH WAS DONE UNDER WARRANTY. ON 10/11/2014 I AGAIN LOST POWER STEERING, AT LOW SPEED, AND NOW THE POWER STEERING RACK HAS TO BE REPLACED YET AGAIN. THE MILEAGE AT THE TIME OF THIS FAILURE WAS APPROXIMATELY 78,380 MILES. I UNDERSTAND AN INVESTIGATION HAS BEEN OPENED BY NHTSA REGARDING THIS MATTER AND I WOULD LIKE MY INFORMATION/EXPERIENCES ADDED. THIS TIME IT IS COSTING ME OVER $1,800.00. *TR
