general problems of the 2011 Ford Fiesta

The contact owns a 2011 Ford Fiesta. The contact stated that the air bags sensor light illuminated, and the steering wheel was making abnormal clicking sounds while driving. The contact also stated that the driver’s side door could not be opened from inside as the door handle was broken. The dealer was made aware of the failure, but the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA campaign number: 20v331000 (latches/locks/linkages). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not provide any assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 84,000.

On August 5 I fell asleep and ran into the back of a truck stopped at a light. My knee air bag deployed but the steering wheel bag did not and the shoulder belt did not deploy causing me to hit the steering wheel very hard bruising my sternum and causing surrounding muscle inflammation that is still sore today.

I purchased this car as a private sale for $4,000 dollars, I had the car less than a year and suddenly the car stopped on the highway. Come to find out the transmission is no good. Doing some prior research before there was a recall on the 2011 Ford focus and Fiestas about the transmission being no good. Prior before the car stopped working all together I was dealing with a lot of hesitation the car shutting off in slow down traffic and bucking. I also did car fax and found out that there was indeed a recall for the transmission. Also finding out recently that the latches for the door was recalled and as well as the air bags that hasn't been fixed.

I was in an accident with my 2011 Ford Fiesta and I was hit on the driver side of the back of the car. The car slammed into me and caused my car to spin and then the car flipped and rolled. The car landed upright into a muddy, grassy field. The air-bags did not open upon impact. I was traveling on the interstate going 60 mph. The car that hit me must have been going 85 mph.

I was in a car accident on 10/13/2018. I was struck on the drivers side, back of my 2011 Ford Fiesta. My car spun around and flipped and rolled. During this time the air bags did not open. I was traveling on the interstate when I was struck going 60 -65 mph. The car that struck me was going much faster, 80-85 mph. I am wondering why my air bags did not open. Are there any other reports like mine? my car landed upright in a grassy muddy field. I am still being seen for medical treatments and waiting to hear if my car is a total loss or repairable.

My car was not part of the airbag recall, so I did not worry about it. A few days ago I was in an accident, the damage was significant and the car totaled, there were several hits as the car was being bounced from one vehicle to another at highway speed, one of those vehicles being a semi. Not a single airbag deployed and as a result all those in the Fiesta got injured, one had to be taken to the er/icu and remains in a bad condition.

Took my car in twice for the tcm and it's even worse. Shuddering, electrical failures,loss of engagement while driving, and worst of all Ford is denying me service until I put another 1,500 miles on the car! not sure if this is even legal. Trying to press for a lemon law now.

The contact owns a 2011 Ford Fiesta. The contact was driving approximately 35 mph and making a turn when she crashed into a covert. The air bags did deploy on impact and the contact sustained a fractured back as a result. The police were contacted and a report was filed. The contact was transported to the hospital via ambulance. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was deemed as destroyed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure and current mileage was approximately 18,000. Updated 11/03/lj the consumer stated the manufacturer has since been made aware of failure. Updated.

In a car crash on July 6, 2011, a 2011 Ford Fiesta was hit by an oncoming car while the Ford was making a left hand turn coming out of a parking lot. The seven air bags supposedly in the vehicle, never deployed. The passengers in the car relied on lap belts and shoulder belts only. The Fiesta was traveling approximately 15 to 20 mph and the oncoming car, 50 mph. There is a question as to whether air bags were even in the car (stolen or taken out, etc).

Airbag off light comes on frequently when adult passenger is seated in 2011 Ford mustang . Your web site does not allow me to select a Ford mustang from the drop down menu so my apology because you have to select some sort or vehicle to continue filing this complaint. The passenger airbag off light comes on at various stages of driving. My wife weighs 130 lbs and it goes off with her sitting there. It comes off and on at random times for as long as 30 seconds weather you are driving straight ,around a corner , accelerating or decelerating. This problem started on my drive home from the dealership. I have had the vehicle in for servicing at maroone Ford of del ray beach, FL. Twice. The last time they kept the car for 6 days and told me every part associated with the airbag system was replaced. When I dropped the car off I showed them cel phone video of my wife in the seat, the car moving, and the airbag off light illuminated. The problem is still happening. This car is a convertible and I would have never purchased it if I would have known the kind of jeopardy that I was placing passengers in every time they ride in my car. The trouble is that you can be hit at any time and having the passenger airbag not working at various stages of normal driving is not acceptable in the least. I own other makes of cars with similar systems and have no problems. I did a search on the internet and found a lot of other people who have had this problem and they have posted their video on line documenting the problem.
