The contact owns a 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the stability track, traction control, and pre-collision warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200.

While the blue cruise is enabled in stop and go traffic the car has a electrical malfunction. The car slowed then proceeded to go forward and speed up at an intersection the car stoped in the intersection abruptly would not move and could not shift the car into any gear or neutral. Multiple warnings on dash. First was service select shift next was service advance trac even after turn the car off and trying to turn back on the car was stuck for approximately 5 minutes until the car test itself. Almost got rear ended due to this

If any of the passengers are unbuckled and the seat chime is on the car does not have an audible forward collision or pedestrian warning alert sound.

While driving on thruway, it began to snow.. One. by one the safety sensors reported failure due to being blocked. Even basic criosese control stopped working. As conditions cleared none of the sensors recovered. I pulled off at an exit to clear any remaining snow that may have been blocking the sensors. The sensors were already clear, yet still reported. being blocked. I pulled into a car wash and. had the car washed and dried to make sure that every sensor was unobstructed. All of the sensors were still in a failure state. Not one sensor recovered. I had to turn off the car and restart to clear the sensor failures. This is a big problem when driving on a long trip. Every time it snows and a sensor fails, I have to exit the thruway and find a place to pull over and restart the car. In instances where roads are wet, cars ahead spray road mud and block the sensors. This happens constantly in upstate NY. Every few miles when the sensors is blocked the car will lose cruise control and most of the safety features. The only way to recover is pull off of the road to restart the car. It happened, several times on 50 mile drive. It's unnerving when it does. When weather conditions are poor, I want to get to my destination safely, without extra driving caused by exiting to restart and merging back on the thruway multiple times. Any other modern vehicle that I have driven will clear a sensor failure when the condition no longer exists, without restarting the car. The Mach-E refuses to clear sensors unless it's restarted. I do believe this compromises the safety of the driver and passengers by causing unnecessary extra driving with multiple instances of stopping and restarting while road conditions are ready poor.

Second time in less than two weeks: Vehicle started making grinding noise, and a warning came up on the screen SHIFT SYSTEM FAULT, service soon. But the car came to a halt a hundred feet later, then would not get in or out of any gear, parking brake could not be released, vehicle could not get into Neutral so not able to push or roll it. I was barely able to get out of an intersection today (Nov 11), and rolled into a parking area on Oct 30 with the same fault. After about a half hour, vehicle could be moved but would show the fault shortly afterwards, locked up. Vehicle was towed on Oct 31 to dealership, they checked fault codes, performed some software updates and test drove 4 miles. They returned the car. Today, same thing happened. Car was at an intersection. Called AAA and still waiting for them to schedule a tow truck (required wheel lift and dolly). Fortunately I was on back roads today but this is a serious problem which would have been much worse on a highway. Car is not drivable. Again, this is the second time in two weeks!

The issue I'm describing is an inherent design flaw. This has not been discussed with third parties. The shift knob on this vehicle is a rotary knob with a configuration of PRND. The knob does not have positive stops in any direction and is only interlocked from moving out of park when the vehicle is not on. What this means: To enter reverse from park: Turn knob one stop clockwise. To enter reverse from drive: Turn knob two stops counterclockwise. Forget you are in drive: Turn knob one stop clockwise and drive forward into the nearest object. There is nothing to stop you from doing this. I have owned the car for 6 months and have had several incidents where muscle memory has led me to nearly drive forward into a wall or other cars while parking.
