Steering wheel clock spring is not working. Controls wipers, turn signals, speed control, voice commands, lane aware and allows to toggle thru control settings do not work. Ford doesn’t have part available or an eta. This part covers vehicles from 2013 thru 2024 so currently vehicles coming down assembly line are using. My car is unusable like this. Aftermarket part is also unavailable. Please help.
My brakes are faulty sometimes I’m not able to stop like I should. I also have transmission problems. When I put the car into reverse or drive I hear a loud boom. It is getting worse by the day. I see that the transmission is on a recall as well.
My car windows will go up and then automatic come back down. The radio switchs channels on its own. The car stalls out and won't start. This has happen and gotten repaired more than 6 times in the last 1. 5 years. It has happened again this pass weekend. My local Ford dealership is going to fix again. As of now I am paying for a car that Ford keeps saying does not fit under the maryland lemon law. This car clearly has some serious electrical issues that Ford does not even understand. I am putting the latest date on it, but it has happen multiple times in the last year and a half. These problems occur while driving or stopped at a light or parked.

Many owners with several different Ford models are experiencing this problem and Ford refuses to acknowledge it.
Standard front lights are insufficient to see clearly. Design flaw makes it impossible and costly to buy your own brighter bulb(sulvaniabright white)and have it installed, costing upwards of $400. Remedy; instruct Ford to cover the cost of insullating internal if customer buys a better bulb. And reduce cost of intalling.
