Sometimes my car is good but about 2-3 times a month it just won't start. It takes about 5 minutes to get it going. I have called Ford and they told me to have my car towed the next time it happens and they will look at it. The only problem is, after a few minutes it will start and run fine. My father in law is a mechanic and has looked at it but can't find anything wrong. I have had this car for 3 years and it's always had this problem. i am definitely looking for something else, probably a Honda
