When accelerating the Fiesta lurches and then goes forward. The air conditioning pumps out cool air and then hot air off and on. The lurching issue has not been repaired and this is the fourth visit.
It happens intermittently but more frequently as time goes by. I will be at a stop light/sign and the rpm's will go as high as 3500; I turn on the air conditioner or heater and it comes down; and then stalls. It sputters and surges and then the power will all but go off and I get the warning: engine failure: see your dealer immediately. This has now happened at least 4 times. Twice, I have been on the highway and will totally be unable to go over 10 miles an hour; if I shut it off for 5 minutes when it comes back on it is usually ok. I read that Ford agreed to fix 1,600,000 cars that "limp home". I never received a notice on mine and I have read there were 59,807 warranty claims related to etb replacements. A so-called "customer satisfaction program extended the etb warranty coverage for up to 10 years. When I took my in they said it was not covered under warranty. It is dangerous to drive as the constant stalling in traffic etc.

At 232 miles we started taking this car back to the dealer for transmission problems, and were told they had no clue what was going on, before 60,000 miles they replaced the transmission or did software updates numerous times, also after 60,000 it continued. In addition the frame and axels have had several issues when the car has never been in accident. I was told by a Ford mechanic the transmission caused that due to the severe shaking caused by the transmission issues. In addition the air conditioning had issues over and over and the electrical system also had issues after recalls for something to due with the battery harness, my lights went out, my radio stopped working, my air conditioning system and many other odd electrical things happened at this point this car sits in my driveway and is unable to be driven because of safety issues, while I wait and hope that Ford is forced to do a buy back. I purchased this car for my daughter when she went off to college in the hopes she would have a safe reliable car, it has been anything but that, so many problems over the years but unable to financially to purchase another and forced to spend money on repairs to keep this one running. I am so upset that they knew before they ever put this car on the road that it was unsafe just so they could make money at the risk they were putting people in, there were several times my daughters car would shake stutter and slow down that she had to pull off the road to avoid causing an accident. . I have all of the work bills do you want those?.
