worse car ever!!!!!!

THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF CRAP! I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD AGAIN. I CAN CLEARLY SEE ON THE WEBSITE THIS CAR HAS RECALLS ON IT YET WHEN I CALL FORD THEY TELL ME NO. THIS AUTOMATIC DRIVES LIKE SOMEONE DRIVING A STICK SHIFT AND DOESNT KNOW HOW. IT HESITATES DRIFTS BACKWARDS, STUTTERS LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE OF THE HESITATION IN IT.

Bought brand new 2014 for reliability fuel ecom

Drove it for 3 months and started acting up with a lot of shuttering etc. the interior is very very hard to clean. Don't like at all. Nothing comes clean. My back doors are falling apart which is weird. The tranny I have replaced 4 times and still shuttering. They put it on the computer and if it doesn't read then to bad so sad, so I wait and I drive a car I HATE till it reads on the computer several appointments at the dealership for maintenance. Too bad one dealership said it was the way I drive. LOL and the other said you get what you paid for $23,000.00 to me is a lot of money and payment of 340.00. I just wish someone would make it right. I am a widow and I depend on my car. Makes me sad because the mileage and the looks are great. The performance and maintenance aren't so great. I just wish that ford or the dealership would make it right. They tell me to trade it off no way I don't want anyone to go thru what I have with this car. No way. plus I bought this car to have till paid off not to have another payment. It actually is to bad so sad.

Very Happy with the purchase

I have owned 2 of these so far and when it is time to buy again I'll be hard pressed not to buy a 3rd one, it's been very reliable.

Most reliable car i?ve Owned

Meets all my needs! Great gas mileage. Clutch may do some shuttering but not a big issue. Smooth ride and performance and roomy and comfy.

Looking for new cars. Test drive this one.

It was a really good car. Perfect exterior, a few stains inside on the seats but nothing major. Other then that I had no complaints.

Shame on Ford

The worst car I have ever owned. Transmission is terrible. Among several other things that are malfunctioning. Now I'm stuck with it because the value dropped around $6000.00 because of the transmission lawsuit. There needs to be something done to protect us buyers against Fords colossal vehicles that are junk from the 1 day of purchase.
