2012 Ford Fiesta consumer reviews

Easy to drive. It's not a big car but you have a lot of space for the legs. Not the perfect 10/10 car, but it gets the job done.

Baight it qith not even 100 000 miles in it at the dealership. 2 week later the air clim stoped working. After it was the informatic system that was bugging. After the 3 years garentie for the painting it starts toshreed. Check engine is like a spooky gost. The batery is xxxx and the mother board can have humidity in is so pieces aee rooting...

So far so good accelerator doesn’t like to be stepped on to heavy at first but once it gets going it’s gone! I love my leather bucket seats! Ice cold air ! Nice sound system with satellite stereo! A little confusing using the different features on stereo! I would say not user friendly! I don’t have a manual so I learn on the fly! Acceleration on freeways is slow at first! You will be asking for more power but it gets going great! 4 cylinder!

I bought a 2012 Fiesta SE with a 6 auto powershift transmission. I bought it brand new for my wife to commute back and forth to work. It goes into get fixed 4-6 times a year on average. I would bot recommend this car if your have all highway driving, unless you buy the standard transmission. The automatic transmission is complete garbage and the repair bill can get very costly. C'mon Ford give us something better than this garbage. 5 years old and the transmission repair cost me 4500 dollars, not to mention all times it had to go in and get the transmission software flashed.

This car gets great mileage, is very easy to drive, and had everything I need, plus heated seats (bonus). I got it for an amazing price.

This car has been very reliable & safe for myself. I have traveled to a few states with this car. Has amazing gas mileage. Very smooth when driving.

I have a 2012 Ford Fiesta, and is the best purchase I have ever made!! Not expensive and super cheap on gas mileage, the interior is awesome and well designed as well for the features! I recommend this car in a heartbeat!!!!

I can say very few good things about the 2012 Ford Fiesta I test drove one day. It looks pretty cool from the outside, and the interior is pretty comfy and roomy for the car's small size. I visited my nearest Ford dealer one fine day to look at a blue 2012 Fiesta I saw on their website. I talked with the salesman and found the car, and right off the bat this little Ford had a dead battery. The car's fault? Probably not. The car had 87K miles, which I felt was a little high for a 2012, but it wasn't too bad, I suppose. The car had a check engine light on, which the salesman said he would fix if I bought the car (I didn't). I started driving the car, and immediately I could feel the cheapness of the interior (so much plastic, and I swear the steering wheel was hollow) and the lack of power coming from this tiny 1.6L engine. It was like a lawnmower. I took it on to a busy freeway. The speed limit on this freeway is 60 mph, but I was only able to get the Fiesta up to 40 on the ramp, it just had no power. Throughout the drive, I noticed something... off... The automatic transmission was slipping! I had read later that this generation of Fiesta, and I believe Focuses of the time, had common transmission issues. After I got the car back to the lot, I thanked the salesman for his time, and walked away. TL;DR: Comfy-ish and roomy, otherwise trash.

It was for the most part an okay daily commuter, not really the kind of car to go road tripping in but more for point a to b.

I currently own a 2012 Ford Fiesta SES Hatchback. To be honest this car wasn’t on my radar. I anticipate this car actually being comfortable for a guy at my size of 6 feet 2 inches. Test drove it and to my satisfaction the ride was comfy. This car handles amazing and is responsive. Only downside is the backseat isn’t ideal for long road trips, it’s pretty cramped for space. I have the top of the line model of the Ford Fiesta and I’m digging the aerodynamic/slick shape. A beautiful yellow blaze and black alloy wheels, absolutely sweetens the look. I like it think of this car as a gas saving SUPERHERO! For someone like myself going through the car buying experience for the first time, this is a car that sets a fine foundation. I bought it used and it had low mileage and an excellent price point. Safe to say this is quite a gem I discovered.
