2016 ford fiesta se has had a transmission/clutch problem. It is doing everything that the recall says it's suppose to cover and Ford is not willing to honor and fix it. It's jerking, shaking, and not accelerating properly.

New vehicle was sold with 2 manufacturing defects: 1) Defective front left shock absorber with made steering unstable. 2) Leaking value cover gasket with created a fire risk. 3) Both defects where confirmed by a dealer. 4) Vehicle has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance representative or others. 5) No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of problem were presented prior to first dealer inspection. 6) The dealer who discovered the 2 manufacturing defects within the 3 year warranty period, held the vehicle over the weekend and claimed to have fixed both. However the next time I took it to a service center I was told the value cover gasket was leaking. 7) I eventually returned to the original dealer who sold me the vehicle and they confirmed that the value cover gasket was leaking and apparently was not repaired under warranty as expected. 8) The original dealer repaired the value cover gasket off-premise in local parking lot and over charge me based on previous warranty price.

While driving on the highway my cars throttle body stopped functioning. Having to try and pull over I got stuck in the middle of traffic. I shut the car off and started it again and everything seemed fine. During the same trip home I got stuck on a small two lane bridge twice for the same reason. After getting off the bridge it happened a fourth time on the highway again doing 70mph.

I have a 2016 Ford Fiesta this model car does not come with a gas cap. I've noticed after I filled my car up with gas my car stutters and stalls out and sometimes doesn't start right away this goes away after 3 or 4 times is starting the car back up I took it to the dealership and they told me that my purge valve for the Ford Fiesta was defective I've already had this repaired and believe this repair has fixed the problem I've read of other people of the same year make and model having similar issues apparently because the has a capless gas tank this creates air pockets in the fuel tank which messes up the purge valve over time.

When accelerating after stopping my 2016 Fiesta SE shudders quite hard moving from 1st to 2nd gear and then also from 2nd to 3rd. I've noticed that the length of time the car shudders is increasing. The shudder is accompanied by a loud rattling sound like if you shook a bunch of screws in a metal container. Sometimes loss of power and high RPM's occur. I will take it back in and this will be the 4th time. The Ford dealership tells me that the shudder doesn't harm the transmission. I don 't believe that. Can't even sell the car (I tried) because this car's resale value is zero. Next I'm thinking of pursuing a lemon law resolution.

We tried turning the car on. The lights started blinking rapidly the. It said the traction control was off. Even though we did not turn it off. We jump started the car and it went on but only for the dashboard to say 'transmission malfunction service now'. when driving on the street and freeway to the next exit. It felt and sound like the engine is revving the entire time no matter what speed. The RPM is running high going straight past 3

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Fiesta. The contact stated that the actuators repeatedly failed on the vehicle. In addition, the air compressors malfunctioned, which caused the vehicle to shut off without warning. Furthermore, the vehicle leaked oil from the transmission. The contact took the vehicle to russell and smith Ford (3440 S loop w, houston, tx 77025, (713) 230-8368) where it was serviced multiple times for the failures under warranty. On one occasion, while the vehicle was stopped at a red light, it shut off without warning. The contact attempted to restart the vehicle, but the engine began to screech. Upon depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle continue to screech and stalled. The vehicle was towed to randall reed's planet Ford (19000 eastex fwy, humble, tx 77338, (866) 844-5995) where the vehicle was repaired for the air compressor and numerous other failures; however, the failures continued.

When I refuel it takes several tries to get vehicle restarted and need to pump accelerator to keep it from dying. The smell of gas is bad. Come to a red light stalls and hard to restart. Air bag light on dash and never goes out. RPM surge and car will lunge, very scary. Just started a loud clicking/thumping noise, found out could be actuator. Ac will stop blowing cool and begin again. Repair shop can't figure out why. For a new car has many issues for being out for such a short time.
