Good Car Reasonably Priced

Great leg room for me and my family. Drives really well sound system is ok. Needs a better set of rims and 4wd.

Ford Flex is a GREAT family vehicle! Wow.

We researched family vehicles such as mini vans etc for almost a year before finally deciding on a Ford Flex. And wow...Are we happy we chose this vehicle! 2009 with 116,000 and it runs like new and is in excellent condition. What a nice ride for the family; TONS of room! A+!

Easiest car to drive

We love our Flex and are sad to see Ford will discontinue the model. This car is a tank (protective)! It's comfortable for family road trips and few others can compare to its unique looks and space.

Mixed feelings

I loved the inside of my Flex. It was loaded with many very nice features. We all loved our big glass above us to see out as well as we did. The movie theater was a life saver for long trips. Had a 110 outlet which was great for the many electronics that had to be plugged in. We never had it in the shop for any major repairs so I'd say it was a long lasting ride for us. It was 187,000 miles and counting when traded in for smaller. Loved how the back seats all laid down. I called it my indoor truck. I was able to haul many things. The glass. Above did eventually start to leak on us which discolored the head liner. Didn't like that. I didn't like the body style, to long and very boxy looking. Not my husband's take on it though. It was my first time to have leather seats and taught me I prefer them. As an over all vehicle it was more of a plus then a minus. Very smooth ride and very quiet running.

Wow..what a car

I owned a 2009 Ford Flex AWD from 2014-2016. I wish I had never sold it..I broke up with a single mom w/ 2 boys and thought I didn't need it as a single dad with a son 50% of the time..I regret selling this car.. it had it all, comfort, space, headroom/legroom, great sound system, bluetooth, camera, navigation, power, good enough on gas for a big safe car, sunroof..seated 7 if needed. The engine is pretty bullet proof..

Perfect vehicle for my family!

Very comfortable and roomy I love everything about this vehicle! I love the third row seating plus there's still room in he back most cars the third row left no room in the back to put anything. I go camping and fishing a lot so this vehicle is perfect for that so much room it's enjoyable for the whole family!!

cooling system problems

We bought a 2009 for flex used last year from a dealership. During the summer we tried to run the AC and the car overheated. Had it hooked up to the computer and nothing. Cooling fans stay on after the car is turned off. They said that it could be a lot of things wrong with it and that they would have to fix it one by one. This was after I had to have them change an actuator in the dash AND the front struts. This was from a ford dealership in Jackson Ohio.
