While driving vehicle would shut down. Happened at stop light or signs. Contacted Ford manufacturer & informed consumer to take vehicle to dealer. At dealership, mechanic placed vehicle on diagnostic machine & no codes appeared. Transmission could not shift properly into either 1st or 2nd gears without making grinding noises. Mechanic refused to repair vehicle due to being out of warranty.

Vehicle would not start. Consumer had car towed to dealer, and they said vehicle needed a tune up and coil pack replace. Dealer said that plugs would not come out because they were stuck. So consumer was not able to drive vehicle because the plugs won't come out. Dealer charged a $1000 to take them out. The light at the rear of the vehicle failed. The starter failed three times. A/C failed. The gear shifter failed. The exhaust system failed. Brake caliper and rotor failed. Wires underhood rust out. Power steering hose failed.
