-TRANSMISSION IS VERY JERKY -CAR HAS A LOT OF HESITATION AFTER ACCELERATING FROM A LOW SPEED OR A STOP -SHUDDERING AND GRINDING NOISE WHEN STOPPING AND ACCELERATING WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR THESE ISSUES WERE MINOR AND I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GO AWAY ONCE THE CAR GOT USED TO MY STYLE OF DRIVING BUT NOW THEY HAVE BECOME MORE SEVERE AND HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY MAKING THIS CAR A SAFETY ISSUE.

WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE WHEN GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY TO GO HOME FROM WORK IT WILL NOT LET ME AND TRY TO STALL AND IT WILL TAKE IT QUITE A BIT OF TIME TO FINALLY LET ME PUSH ON THE GAS AND GET GOING AGAIN. IT HAS DONE THIS A COUPLE OF TIMES NOW AND A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN LEAVING AN INTERSECTION AFTER STOPPING AT EITHER A STOP SIGN OR A STOP LIGHT. *TR

ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE BEGAN AS SOON AS WE GOT IT. CAR CONSTANTLY STUTTERS LIKE IT'S ABOUT TO STALL (WAS TOLD BY SALESMAN THAT IT WAS BECAUSE CAR WAS BRAND NEW AND ONCE WE "BROKE IT IN' THAT WOULD GO AWAY). IT HAS NOT. DOES NOT ACCELERATE WHEN IT SHOULD AND DOESN'T DECELERATE WHEN IT SHOULD, NO MATTER HOW HARD OR SOFT YOU PRESS THE PEDALS. CAR SEEMS TO HAVE A MIND OF IT'S OWN. LIKES TO ACCELERATE WHEN HAVE BRAKE PRESSED, HAVE ALMOST REAR-ENDED CARS IN FRONT BECAUSE OF IT'S LURCHING FORWARD. WHEN USING SPORT MODE, CAR WOULD NOT HAVE ANY MORE P…

MY 2014 FORD FIESTA SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING ON THE INTERSTATE 4 DURING RUSH HOUR (APPROXIMATELY 5PM ON MAY 12 2017). THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND IT STALLED RANDOMLY. I RESTARTED AND IT WOULD NOT RUN. AFTER TOWING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY DETERMINED IT WAS DUE TO A FUEL PUMP MALFUNCTION. IT WAS MENTIONED HOW UNUSUAL IT IS FOR THIS TO OCCUR ON A CAR WITH RELATIVELY LOW MILEAGE. THERE WAS NO WARNING BEFORE THE CAR BROKE DOWN. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS. NO STRANGE NOISES. IT JUST STOPPED. THIS COULD BE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. AFTER BEING INFORMED WHAT THE…
