general problems of the 2012 Ford Flex

Bad design of water pump , under parts would fail one day , but the water pump is a bad design. It failed too soon and hurt the engine. Also lots of work to fix it. But even if it get fixed the problem is still there. . . Bad water pump.

The water pump has faliure and is causing expensive repair. It seems to be a know defect. We some pending law suits.

While stopped and in park the vehicle started rolling, I attempted to jump in the vehicle but could not pull myself all the way in. I was able to yank the keys from the ignition and then I could no longer run along side the vehicle and I fell on the asphalt. However, the vehicle continued rolling until it became high centered on a large rock. Four witnesses confirmed that the vehicle was in park and the keys were out of the ignition.

The right rear door sensor says that the door is open when it is not. Tried to close it a few times but that didn't work. Now I can't lock my car at night because my car alarm will go off thinking that someone is trying to break in. It has now happened approximately six or seven times now. I see that other people have reported the same issue. This should be a recall.

Now I cannot lock my car because my car alarm keeps going off thinking that someone is trying to open the door. When I called the dealership about it, they said "I know exactly what you are talking about". I received an estimate of approximately $300 to get it fixed - even though there is really nothing wrong at all - the door is closed. It has now happened approximately three times with the right front door. This should be a recall.
