"Had to replace the steering rack"

"We have a torn boot on the right front ball joint"

"link rusted together was unable to move caused rack and pinion to wear and thus needed to replace parts there too"

"The suspension part was replaced under an extended warranty"

"Had to replace tires sooner than expected"

"Left front tire wears very quickly towards outermost edge. Research online indicates that a control arm needs replacing to fix the issue. Ford dealership says alignment is fine and refused to fix the issue. The outer edge of a brand new tire wears"

"Tires have been aligned 4 times in a year. Also lost power steering when driving . Dealer insists due to low tire pressure of 29 psi. No warning from message center"

"wheel bearing on the right rear went bad after 55000 miles, causing tire to wear out"

"Clicking sound that seemed to reflect the speed of rotation. Local mechanic said that there was no problem. Dealer discovered bearing problem. Had a lot of trouble pulling the bearing"

"Front bearings failed and had to be replaced. Cost was $800"

"right front wheel bearing failed. fixed and covered by warranty"

"Premature failure due to rear seal failure"

"The A/C compressor on this vehicle self destructed in 2014. The cost to replace was exhorbitant at about $2000. Evidenbtly, according to frequency of repair stats, this was more of a one off (but it was me). The Dealership's techs know me as the g"

"air conditioner has a leak so small that it is not measurable by detection device. Looses enough coolant that climate control is not cool in cabin. Requires refill"

"compressor would freeze up on long road trips, safety feature would shut down system. dealers (2) said nothing wrong, very annoying and uncomfortable without a/c driving on interstate highways, etc"

"Intermittant failure. Very hard to diagnose. Several visits. SDeveral attempts"

"computer failure caused air conditioning to fail"

"AC was cold but in AUTO mode would not run fan at high"

"The system is on it's 2nd failure- it won't go out of automatic and it turns on A/C and and tries to cool down (full blast) while also trying to keep the car warm. Dealer can not find problem- am taking car back this week"

"Passenger side heat..Driver cool"

"censor in dash went bad also wrench indicator came on"

"Approximately two years ago the blower motor relay burned up and we had to replace it. The part was about $80 and I was able to easily replace it myself"

"The motor failed during winter; therefore, the heating and defrost systems became useless"

"Circulation fan rattles"

"leak"

"Main electrical harness to battery failed which also caused the electrical harness to transmission to fail"

"$500+ repair to restore the A/C in my car. Not sure if a rock hit the right part causing the leak or if it was something else"

"Had coolant and thermostat changed as part of normal maintenance and the dealer was not able to remove all the air in the coolant. This left the heater blowing cold air at idle, with the heat on full hot. Took dealer 3 weeks to fix, included calls"

"The directional valve inside heating duct failed"

"Warranty covered repair to throttle body after a recall for reprogramming the throttle body"

"The transmission shifts very roughly and sometimes it is slow to shift"

"I have had it at dealers before warranty expiry. they said nothing wrong. now off warranty and getting worse all the time. I think going to be major expense"

"Driving in high (6th) gear, car would suddenly downshift to a lower gear and stay there until stopping and turning engine off"

"The rebuilt transmission was a long term cost savings as its now out of warranty and going bad. a new transmission would have had a three year warranty"

"Transmission would jerk violently when shifting between 70 to 80 Kms/hr. This occurred intermittently, and then became frequent enough to produce an error code for the dealership"

"The 6F35 transmission manufactured in 2010 had a flaw in the half shafts in which the finish was not as smooth as it should be. This causes premature wear of the bushings where the half shafts exit the transmission, and fluid leakage results. The left half shaft was replaced free of charge per Ford bulletin TSB 10-21-11. The right half shaft is not covered, even though it most certainly was manufactured at the same factory at the same time. If not repaired, the transmission would ultimately"

"Transmission oil leak determined to be seepage through corrode oil cooling lines, requiring their replacement"

"Transmission leak. Because of rack under car/transmission there is no easy way to know this is happening. Fluid was empty by the time it was found during an oil change"

"The seal between transmission and short axle shaft was worn and leaking. Found out this was a design flaw where poor material was used, which hastened wear. Had this replaced with upgraded solution, and it has resolved the problem"

"Axle seal was leaking again. Was repaired on year ago"

"Noted leak under car, and frequent hesitation followed by grabbing when accelerating after a stop"

"Two lines for the transmission cooler corroded and needed immediate replacement. I have had the fluid replaced sooner than recommended also because I don't trust the longevity of the transmission"

"I noticed fluid leaks on my garage floor for 2 years or more, but when I took it to the Ford dealer they said they couldnt find any leaks. When the car was 4.5 years old, the transmission was clearly slipping (shifting hard when cold) so I took it in"

"leak associated with known Ford advisory"

"leak by gear selection arm into the transmission"

"left axle seal"

"$700 repair"

"Included a recall on the transmission, which had to be serviced after the initial recall was fixed. Also had a transmission leak that the dealer couldn't fix for 7 days"

"Needed to have the computer shifting recalibrated because 2nd gear was slipping. This was done under warranty by the dealer"

"factory recall, required new computer program and rebuild of subsequent transmission damage caused by original computer programming bug. This was 30000 miles ago. The fix worked fine"

"Drivers seat heating element went bad at 33K miles"

"Seat heater broken. $1800 for repair. New seat"

"Sensor reports a fault at highway speeds then goes off when you slow down"

"All would be fine for about 15 minutes or 15Kilometers and then the auto message would go on to say low tire pressure ,but I would go and verifie the tire pressure and all tirers would be well inflated.Also had to change the Battery late 2014,way"

"Transmission failed while on vacation to another state. It slipped and could not place in another gear until you turned the engine off. Ford had to dismantel transmission twice. This transmission is a piece of crap. The Ford blogs are full of pro"

"The car started making a grating noise when changing speeds. The next result was that the gear box had to be rebuilt"

"Transmission failed at 39k miles. 'This is normal' Ford tells me. They have a TSB on the issue (#TSB-14-0056), but the Ford rep told me that the redesign parts because it is fun for them to do so, and that the fact that lots of transmissions are f"

"The warranty called for rebuilding of the transmission, final cost, not to me, was more than a new transmission. After warranty of rebuilt transmission expired, issues are happening again. New transmission warranty would have been three years not o"

"Transmission completely failed at 25000km. Ford rep wanted to rebuild it but I complained until he agreed to replace the transmission. There have been no problems with it since then"

"Shifted into park but car was still in drive. I had to put emergency brake on and turn off key in ignition. Called AAA and they towed into dealer"
