The driver-??s seat will work fine on one side but the other side will not go back and forth. This causes problems while driving as my knees are toward my chest and my ability to break is impaired.

For the second time my heated/cooled seats failed. This time Ford replaced the connector with an updated module with additional ground wires. The original connector showed burns and the issue presents a fire hazard under the passenger seat. While Ford gave me a "break" on replacing with the upgraded connector, it still cost me $250+ and doesn't address the fire hazard that the original connection presents to the car that they have not fixed.

After driving and washing my car for a few months I've noticed that my rear end bumper paint was bubbling up almost as if it wanted to melt. A few weeks ago I got stranded at the gas station because my car wouldn't turn on. It completely died, randomly. I needed a jump. Just recently I noticed my driver seat stitching was unstitching. My vehicle only has 35K miles.
