Apr 201833600 miUS $719 | There was a water leak that showed itself on the driver side windshield. 4-5 weeks later there were about 10 additional water leaks throughout the windshield. Upon Ford inspecting the vehicle they found that the water leak was due to water gathering under the roof rack, settling within the seal, and running down to the top of the windshield. The water was also running to the back of the car down the same seal and was exiting within the panels by the rear passenger door and passenger side trunk. The seal on the roof had to be replaced and panels removed so interior can be fully cleaned and dried out to avoid mold problem. I had noticed that the climate control in the car was not working correctly. After the vehicle engine was warmed up it would still blow out cold air, even when reading 75+ degrees. In order for warm temperature to come through the car it had to be manually turned to at least 77 degrees. Additionally the outside temp gauge on the My Ford Touch (MFT) display would consistently give VERY inaccurate readings. On a day where it was 40 degrees the display read anywhere from -6 to 77 degrees. I believe the two issues may had been interrelated. Upon Ford inspection the found the issue to be caused by a Ambient Air Temperature Sensor. The sensor itself was faulty and broker and needed to be replaced. After replacing the sensor the technicians found that whenever the harness it is connected to is moved the temperature readings become inaccurate. Upon additional inspection they found the pin connector for the sensor was broken and also needed to be replaced. Once replaced the Climate Control and Outside Air Temp readings appeared to be functioning correctly. |

Aug 201718903 mi | After 20 minutes, the dash vents would close. Fan works okay, I hear the air coming out, it's just not able to come out of anywhere I can feel. Turning the car off and on fixes the problem. The dealer tracked it down to SSM 45383 and reprogrammed the HVAC module. The repair seemed to work, but when I drove it the following day, it happened again. The handle for the cargo hatch broke off in my hand the first night I had the car. The dealer replaced the handle. The day after I picked up the car, the problem happened again. All the vents closed up, the fan works perfectly, but no air comes out of any vent. I was close to the dealership, so I came right in. The manager, the writer and two techs saw the problem. I was hoping to get an answer that afternoon. The next day, I was told it would be ready on Monday, on Monday, I was told that they weren't able to fix it, and that they had a "call into the Ford hotline." I took it back because I couldn't afford to pay for a rental anymore. I called Ford corporate, they referred me to another Ford dealer about twenty minutes away. All the vents closed up, the fan works perfectly, but no air comes out of any vent. After calling Ford corporate, they told me that I had to go back to the original dealer. I left several messages until he finally called me back, and told me to bring the car in. Several days later, a part was replaced, but they declined to give me the repair ticket, saying they wanted to keep the repair order open in order to stop the factory warranty from expiring. A few warm days later, it seems to be working. The recirculation button still turns off and on from time to time, and in order to change the setting, I still have to push it twice. I didn't push it, I will ask them to look at it later. | ||
Nov 201725295 mi | I'd earlier heard running water behind the dashboard, especially when starting or stopping. The Internet said it was a broken heater core, but they checked everything and said it wasn't doing it now, it could have been an air bubble that resolved itself. While the car was in the shop for the dashboard noise that wasn't there, a sharp eyed mechanic noticed insulation missing under the hood, and rodents nests made behind the fenders and under the alternator. The dealer removed the fenders to eliminate the nests and resealed all the damage done. Luckily, no wiring damage or live rodents were found. | ||

Jul 201847210 miUS $613 | Just like last summer, the floor mats continued to be wet and the interior smells moldy as a result. This time though, they found a loose [A/C] drain hose and fixed it.

The rear hatch is closing slowly, I asked them to replace the struts. |
