2007 Ford Freestyle Owner Comments

problem #1

Freestyle 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

Vehicle is a 2007 Ford Freestyle ltd with continuously variable transmission. The haldex traction control coupler between the front and rear wheels seems to work normally when on slick pavement and the traction control 'active' light on the dash flashes to show it is working. However, the same light comes on on dry pavement and will not go off until the engine is turned off. It may come on each driving cycle, or only occasionally or even while parked and idling. The dealer has replaced the pump in the haldex coupler but the erroneous tc light still comes on at random times. Others on the Ford forums have reported the same symptoms and and obdii code of P1889 (oil pump failure.)
