Focus

  • 191,000 miles
Immediately upon starting my car... my fuel gauge would flash on and off like as if it was low. I noticed that the weather was damp and a fog in the air. The fuel gauge was flashing with a half tank of gas in my vehicle. Upon driving off slowly, my rear hatch unlatched and my dashboard lights turned off. This occurred 4-5 times... before I was able to get my trunk to latch. Although I was able to drive down the highway eventually without my rear hatch unlatching, my dashboard lights were completely off.
