Within 10 days of buying it brand new I've had electrical problems. Replaced back up screen within those 10 days even though they didn't find anything wrong. Still continues. Multiple issues with the power train. Now I've been out of a car for 2 weeks because I might need a new transmission at 65,000 no longer under warranty. How can I pay $38,000 and it goes bad instantly? no help from Ford or dealer. My gears are stalling and not shifting correctly or picking up speed. I drive like an old lady and take care of this car like it's brand new. I will never buy a Ford again and will tell anyone who will listen not to do the same.

While driving out of the subdivision the car stalled. The wrench light came on. We parked it and took another car we had at the time. We will make mention of it tomorrow when I call the dealer and add it the service ticket regarding the exhaust problem.
Car has stalled twice in traffic. . One instance traveling 65 mph on interstate. . . Other time while making a left turn in traffic. . . Both times collisions were barely avoided. I have received recall 16b32 on vehicle. Am concerned whether it is an improved version, or just the same throttle body. This condition creates some very dangerous situations.

When doing a hard acceleration (I. E. . Merging onto a highway), exhaust smell enters the vehicle through the vents. I've brought this issue to my dealer's service department for the 1st service and was informed that there was a TSB on this problem. The second time I brought the vehicle in for service I mentioned it again. This time, they kept the vehicle and tried to fix it by installing plugs on rear hatch, resealing body seams at the rear of the vehicle, and apply rubberized coating. This did not solve the problem. When I brought the vehicle in for service in may 2017 I told them I still had the problem. At this point, service dept indicated they still haven't figured out what is causing the problem. I purchased this vehicle in January 2016 and started noticing the problem after I'd had the vehicle a few months. This problem occurs almost every time when hard accelerating. The exhaust smell lasts from 2-5 minutes. This problem may occur multiple times during a drive. I don't know whether the fumes are continuing into the vehicle once I can't smell it anymore.
Car stalled on highway with grand kids in car. Had car towed to dealer. Big problem Ford knew about--throttle body part. Parts on back order at least 2 weeks-when I stated take part off inventory cars couldn't- may have same problem-when I said take off new cars arriving-they have same deffective part-dangerous situation when a car stalls on highway and a Ford is well aware of it-car brand new has 8,000miles. . . . . . . . . . . . .
