I took my car to a Ford dealership to take action on recall 14M01. They replaced the clutch under warranty and returned my car to me. A day later my car flashed a check engine light while I was 45 minutes away from home on the highway. Codes that came up were addressed & the vehicles condition worsened until it went fully into limp mode while returning from an attempt to restart the computer.

This Ford Fiesta has many problems I have spend over 1300 dollars this car has many safety issues. The doors poped open while driving this car. I contacted Ford and the representative was not caring she stated it's out of their warranty. I explained to her that the doors came open with my two year old in back seat in a car seat could have fell out. I also told her the car stopped in the middle of the road. It's something wrong with the transmission on this car. This vehicle is not safe and I would like this looked into. I was traveling on a highway all american in fayetteville nc.

We have a 2012 Ford Fiesta. When we are driving the car ti shakes when it goes to change gears, it is an automatic. We've taken it to the dealership many times. The dealership used to tell us it was the mass air flow sensor. They have cleaned it and replaced it. The car continued to have the issue. I took the car into the dealership and told them to check the clutch assembly. They did and replaced the clutch assembly saying that was the problem. The car drove decent for about a month then we went back to the problem of losing power in the middle of an intersection and then accelerating too fast after the loss of power. Now the car will rev up when in park and continues to have the shuttering problem. The dealership seems to not know what is going on.

I bought my 2012 Ford Fiesta in 9/2015 with approx.16,000 miles on it. Since I purchased the car, it has been in the shop 5 times (one of which for 26 days). #1 was due to the door latch. My 10yr old was sitting in the backseat when the right side door swung open while I was making a turn. #2 was due to the transmission. The car was having trouble shifting gears & began shaking, then the lights inside & out started blinking and the car completely shut off while I was driving down the highway. #3 was for the transmission again, which locked up while I was driving down I75 in naples the evening of 12/28/2015. The car completely locked up and had to be towed in the middle of the night. #4 the transmission again. While driving North on I75 the car started making a strange whinny noise then shortly after locked up while I was still driving. That time I barely made it off to the side of the highway. Car was towed again to dealership. #5 transmission...again. While driving at 11:30pm at night 8/2016 car lights started blinking on & off and then the car completely shut off while I was driving. Managed to be able to turn it on again and drive it to the dealership...where it stayed for 26 straight days. Tomorrow will be #6...due to transmission problems...again. Car is making whinny noises again, shaking and having trouble shifting gears, temperature light is coming on and A/C is not cooling anymore. Tomorrow I'll be getting an attorney as well.

Car stalls when driving, usually when foot is taken off gas pedal, ie when coming to a stop. Thought it was because of a fault with the ac compressor (which has been a problem since the car was new). Compressor was replaced in July and car was still stalling so returned to dealer on 9/16/16 and was told it was the electronic throttle body failing. Was told it was an 'uncommon' issue. Did research and found the 'customer satisfaction" (recall) of over a million Ford vehicles for this issue, but of course not any Fiesta's. have just found multiple complaints for the same vehicle as mine with the same issue. I will be contacting Ford directly but based on my experience trying to get my deductible waved for the ac repair I don't expect much. They are the worst company for customer service.

The contact owns a 2012 Ford Fiesta. While coming to a stop, the vehicle began to rev while in neutral at high speeds. The vehicle would decelerate intermittently as if it would stall, but then suddenly began to accelerate. The failure recurred while driving approximately 30 mph. The contact depressed the brake pedal, but the vehicle failed to stop until the anti-lock brakes were activated. The dealer stated that the electronic throttle body failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The part for the repair was on back order. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the repair was no longer under warranty. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 62,143.

Driver side doors lock. Passenger doors do not. Car won't start. Battery is good. Fuel is good.

I bought my car in 2011, and since 2012 my air conditioner only blows hot air. I have had it replaced multiple times, but it continues to break. My transmission, after several recalls, has continued to slip and mess up. Now, in the 4th year of me having my new car, I cannot pump gas at any station. When the nozzle is in the fuel tank, it continues to cut off, causing me to take 10X the amount to pump gas as it used it.

Many times with in the last few months my Ford 2012 feista will just turn off while driving, it does not matter if its hot or cold, flat driving or mountain driving.the car really does not perform well in traffic situations, and the failure occurs more during stop and go type of driving. When this happens the engine malfunction light will turn on. At that time you have to turn the ignition switch off and restart the car, sometimes the signal will turn off, sometimes it does not. This failure has happened in the middle of intersections, on the freeway or just driving through town. The car will shutter sometimes before it shuts off, or just starts to stall. When this happens I am able to move to the shoulder or pull off the road to restart the car. This failure of the car just stopping while running while has a high potential of me being in an auto accident. Since this failure happens at any time and cannot be predicted I take my life and my families lives in danger every time we get into this car. I can only take guesses at what the problem is, it could be the fuel injection, transmission, or some type of engine misfire. I have had nothing but problems with car since we bought it. I have read many complaints of this type of failure for this vehicle when reading reviews. It is my hope this issue can become a recall or that Ford will take action.

When car is stopped or driving the transmission feels like it is going to slop. Feels like it is going to stall. Went T dealership and they said this is normal. This is not normal. Jerks and feels like chocking when driving or stopped. When accelerating jerks and feels like the transmission slips and isn't shifting. Went to dealership several times and they will not look into this. Looked online and noticed several forums and other people having the same troubles with the car. Needs to be corrected as it is a safety issue. Expressed. Concern with dealership that it was having troubles that it was either the transmission but looked at me. Like I did T know what I was talking about because I'm a chick.

Ford Fiesta 2012 transmition shakes everytime I go from stop to first and second gear, it vibrates and hesitates horrible, and the dealers keep saying it is "normal" even though I test drove a new Ford Fiesta and it does not have the same issue. I really do not know what to do now. I would not be able to sell it like this, and it can not be repaired because it is "normal"!

- El Paso, TX, USA

Today, 1/19/2016 is my 6th visit to Ford dealer service since 2014 August. My car has been towed in to service location with condition of transmission shudders excessively. I was not able to drive the car with a in-operating transmission. It is very sad, I do not feel safe to drive the vehicle no more than 15 miles if I can. Transmission and clutch has been fixed for 3 times. Every time I have talked to Ford customer rep. They are telling me I should be okay because they extend my transmission coverage to 100.000 miles. Should I toss my car after 100.000 " I definitely do not feel I can make it to 100.000 without an injury!!! will company wait until someone get injured for a buyback policy? who is responsible for the time I spent on the issue"

- Dallas, TX, USA

Several recalls for different parts have been issued since the purchase of this car. The transmission does not engage all the time causing the car to jerk and move forward quickly without notice and cause damage to the car. Go up hills the transmission has cut out before and then shot forward as previously described. Door latches can and will come open allowing for the door to open while the car is in motion. This vehicle is not safe and now I am stuck with it.
