No warning lights were displayed on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who failed to determine the cause of the failure. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V550000 (Power Train). The vehicle was not repaired.

Just bought this car not even a month ago. Drove less than 80 miles. After doing my actual behind the wheel test w highway patrol in the car (Missouri) I noticed the car shifting and jerking into gear as I'd accelerate from a stopped or parked position. No warning lights displayed at that time. Husband drove it this morning to work and did the same thing and now the wrench light is displayed. Being towed to the dealership on Monday since everything I've read says do not continue to drive.

My daughter along with my son in law had parked the car under the carport, once parked they got out to get my grandchildren out, My son in law get the baby on the passengers side while my daughter the drivers. My son in law got his side and shut the door. My daughter takes a bit longer because my oldest grandboy has special needs and takes a little longer. Once she shut his door with the drivers door still open the car rolled back. The drivers door struck my daughters knocking her down to the concrete. She had to toss my grandson to get him clear of the car, His head also struck the concrete. The car then ran over my daughters upper right leg. the car proceeding down hill and across the street where it struck the house across the street.

Husband was driving us home. Vehicle lost power, car started slowing down. Had to pull over to side of road. Car would restart but continued to die and would not change gears. 3 occurred for several hours. Got car towed to dealer ship. The next day car started ok.

Just received a call they says it-??s the fuel pump.

Vehicle transmission bucks, jerks, and shutters when accelerating from 0-35 mph. This issue does not allow adequate acceleration when taking off from stop. Slippery road conditions can impact this problem. Problem was confirmed by Dick Smith Ford of Columbia SC on 8 July 2022. Dealership conducted an adaptive transmission learning software reset for $224. Issue has not been inspected by any other entity. There were no warning signs or lamps illuminated during this issue.

Engine cut off while driving at highway speed in heavy dallas traffic. Required coming to complete stop to restart vehicle after crossing three lanes to reach shoulder of interstate. Dangerous. Daylight, mid day, clear weather conditions, had been driving 1.5 hours; mileage only 1,600. Dealer service dept ran computer diagnostics and no codes showed the problem. (numerous online forums have complained about this problem since back in 2005....very dangerous)
