In September 2022 we are visiting my son it-€™s his first year off to college.. We were pulling out of the parking lot of my sons dorm. We turned the car on and started to drive, all of sudden the car stopped moving it would not move forward or backwards..It was the transmission, we have order the parts but they have been on back order. It-€™s Dec. 30 we have been without a car and parts. Almost 4 months we have been dealing with this..

At intersection making a turn when vehicle wouldn't move forward. Transmission stoped working. Dangerous vehicle position. Signal light changed. Several cars honked horn and had to go around. Car was in gear (drive). After several minutes shifting into drive and reverse and back into drive I was able to complete turn and pull over to side of road.

The door latch chrome has delaminated and acts like a razor blade severely cutting my finger. This is the second time that this has happened. It occurs when I am opening the door and the chrome detaches from the latch and cuts.

My vehicle tints in the back and passenger front side are staring to warp. This make it difficult to view where I'm turning. I can roll down the passenger window for visibility but can't do this for the back, which sucks. I don't have the funds to have tints redone. What do I do in this situation?

My 2017 Ford Fiesta has a malfunctioning canister purge valve. I am having the same exact problem for which the 2018 Ford Focus cars were recalled. My car is only 2 & 1/2 years old and it is stalling after I fill it up with gas. After filling up at the gas station, it will not start on the first try. It starts on the second, third, or fourth try. The check engine light is on now as well. The dealership says it is not covered by my warranty. I have 56,000 miles on it. This car needs to be recalled. They will not pay for the costly repairs due to their faulty purge control valve. The 2017 Ford Fiestas need to receive the same recall that the 2018 Ford Focus cars did. This is the same problem! (I do not know if the evap system is considered to be under powertrain or fuel/propulsion system.)

Seats are poorly made. The hard plastic piece where the seat adjustment is located broke on my 2 year old vehicle. Broke while stationary.
