Hello national highway traffic safety administration, I would like to create a vehicle complaint regarding the Ford Focus 2006 sedan zx4 that I purchased the vehicle September 20, 2017. While driving within a service road, the vehicle's stalled and stopped running while driving upon multiple instances over the same day of purchasing and through out the weekend of September 22 - September 30th. As a result, I returned the vehicle to the dealer of lansing power motors inc. For an inspection September 23, 2017. Upon completion of the inspection, the mechanics confirmed that "nothing was wrong with the vehicle" and suggested to purchase a new computer for the vehicle. On October 30, 2017 I was involved in a car accident which I think was due to bad electrical brakes which resulted in the vehicle being t-boned by another driver within a residential intersection. The vehicle continues to stall or stop completely while driving as of may 14, 2018. In addition, noticed that all lights on the dashboard displayed while the car stalled and during start-up of the vehicle. Uncertain about the car not being recalled, due to receiving a mailed notification regarding the recall of the vehicle from the original manufacturer. Can provide the name upon contact regarding the vehicle compliant submission of the form. Thanks for your time, consideration, and I hope that this information may assist you regarding the creation of a vehicle complaint.
Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Ford Focus. The contact stated that the ignition key turned the vehicle on and off but was stuck. There was no warning indicator. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who diagnosed that the key "may need to be replaced". The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was left at the dealer's. The failure mileage was 123,000. Fe.
The rear passenger side door lock does not lock. This is the side the baby carseat is located. All the other doors do lock/unlock. It happened suddenly without any reason. I have noticed multiple occurrences of this issue on internet forums for Ford and Ford does not have a recall or a mandatory fix but they need to as this is a real safety and security issue!.
Driving down the street and vehicle just stopped running/died. It has been at the dealer for almost two weeks and they haven't figured it out yet. No call, same run around when I call about update. . . .
Rear passenger door won't lock. My wife "apparently" locked the car at work in an open parking lot and later went to retrieve something from back seat to find that the door was not locked. No indication was given when locking the car using the remote locking mechanism that there is an issue because it sounds like it is fully locked. It isn't. I checked the issue by having her drive up and down the road making sure she thought all doors were locked and while she had stopped, I opened the rear passenger door and jumped in the back seat much as an attacker or carjacker might do. This is a safety issue because anyone can jump in the back of the car while stopped at traffic lights even though the owner may think that the car is securely locked, it just might not be. Beware and check all your door locks on a regular basis as this seems to be reported on multiple occasions on Ford Focus internet forums. To this date, we have no idea when the actual locking mechanism failed as it is not something we, or any other driver would check on a regular basis.
The rear passenger door does not lock on our 2006 Ford Focus zx4. It opens and closes correctly. It just won't lock, even with child lock on. All other doors operate correctly. This door operated correctly before. We heard Ford had a problem with this on previous Focus models. Cut off was the year 2005 for this problem. We feel unsafe from this problem because we transport our senior moms to shopping trips.
Drivers side rear door electric door lock will not lock. The same thing happened on the passengers side about two years ago.
On four separate occasions my car, without forewarning, cut off while in motion and at various rates of speed. The car is now being serviced for this problem for the third time in the two months that I have had it. The car also has a problem with not starting, for no apparent reason.
Cabin filter - filter is excluded in this model of vehicle. Electric windows never worked correctly . Airbag- was never inspected by dealer.
