IF I CRANK THE CAR SOON AFTER CUTTING IT OFF, (WHILE IT'S STILL WARM) ENGINE SPUTTERS THEN QUITS, AS IF IT ISN'T GETTING ENOUGH FUEL. SO WHEN GETTING GAS, I HAVE TO HOLD DOWN THE GAS PEDAL OR ENGINE QUITS. AS SOON AS I START PUMPING, THE ENGINE STARTS CHOKING. I CAN'T TURN OFF THE IGNITION WHILE PUMPING GAS BECAUSE IT WON'T STAY CRANKED ONCE I TRY TO DRIVE AWAY UNLESS I REV THE RPM'S UP REALLY HIGH FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. I'VE HAD IT LOOKED AT SEVERAL TIMES AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR OVER A YEAR. AND NOW WHITE SMOKE BILLOWS OUT OF THE TAIL PIPE WHEN IT'S CRANKED. SECOND PROBLEM....ELECTRICAL. SOME OF THE STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS, SUCH AS CRUISE AND HANDS-FREE CALLING STOP WORKING OVER TIME. THIRD PROBLEM.... FRONT CV JOINTS WEAR OUT WAY TOO SOON. I HEARD OF A RECALL ON THE NEWS A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO FOR MY CAR THAT SOUNDED LIKE MY ENGINE ISSUE, BUT NOW I CAN'T LOCATE THE RECALL ANYWHERE. THEY EVEN TOOK IT OFF OF THE NEWS CHANNEL'S WEBSITE. DURING THE BROADCAST, THEY SAID THE RECALL WOULD BEGIN DECEMBER 10TH. WHAT HAPPENED??? DID FORD CHANGE ITS MIND? SURE WOULD HELP ME OUT! I'M ENTERING THE OCCURRENCE DATE 1/1/17, BUT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON WELL OVER ONE YEAR, MAYBE 2.

SHIFTER BUSHING CABLE - THIS PART BROKE OFF FROM MY VEHICLE BACK IN JULY. THE BUSHING CONNECTS SHIFTER ARM TO TRANSMISSION. WITHOUT THIS PIECE, MY VEHICLE NEEDS ASSISTANCE TO COMPLETE EVERY SINGLE SHIFT. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MOVE FROM PARK TO DRIVE, I HAVE TO GET OUT OF MY VEHICLE, OPEN THE HOOD, PLACE THE SHIFTER DOWN ON THE TRANSMISSION ARM, THEN SHIFT THE CART. TO GO FROM DRIVE TO PARK, I HAVE TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BREAK, GET OUT OF THE CAR, POP THE HOOD, REATTACH THE SHIFTER ARM, THEN SHIFT THE CAR. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE JULY 2018 WITH NO NOTICE FROM FORD ON WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS SPECIFIC PART IS NOT SOLD ON THE AFTERMARKET EITHER, MEANING THAT I DO NOT HAVE ANY WAY TO FIX MY CAR AND THUS HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. I'M VERY CONCERNED THAT ALL OF THIS SHIFTING AND OPENING AND CLOSING OF MY HOOD IS CAUSING LONG-TERM DAMAGE TO THE CAR (THAT FORD WOULD MOST LIKELY NOT FIX). I HAVE CALLED FORD OVER 8 TIMES TO COMPLAIN AND HAVE RECEIVED NO ETA ON PARTS, NO OTHER WAY TO FIX THE ISSUE, NOR ANY COMPENSATION/HELP TOWARDS ME BEING ABLE TO USE MY CAR. RECALL WAS ISSUED ON JULY 20TH, 2018; OVER 3 MONTHS LATER, NO REPLACEMENT PART HAS BEEN PROVIDED.
