ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY MY VEHICLE GOT VERY SHAKY AND UNCONTROLLABLE TO DRIVE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WE NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AND SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AREA. AFTER BEING ABLE TO PULL OFF FREEWAY AND CHECK CAR WE NOTICED A HUGE TRAIL AND PUDDLE OF OIL COMING FROM MY CAR. TURNED CAR INTO FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A OIL LEAK FROM MY ENGINE OIL COOLER AND RESULTED IN A SHATTERED PISTON IN MY ENGINE FROM IT BEING STARVED OF OIL. WAS TOLD BY FORD I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE, BUT RECEIVED A "REMANUFACTURED" ENGINE LONG BLOCK FROM FORD. AFTER ALMOST 3 WEEKS I GOT THE CAR BACK AND THAT SAME DAY THE CAR STARTED TO SHUDDER AND SHAKE BADLY, EVERYTIME I START THE CAR THE CAR WOULD CRANK OVER AND TAKE 5-10 SECONDS TO ACTUALLY CATCH AND START. IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, EXHIBITS GRINDING SCRAPING THUMPING NOISES FROM UNDER THE HOOD WHILE DRIVING LOW SPEEDS. TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, FORGET IT, THE CAR GETS STUCK BUT REVS HIGH EVEN THOUGH THE SPEED WONT CHANGE. ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE LIKE A CAR SHOULD. TOLD FORD AND NOW SENDING CAR BACK AGAIN, BUT WAS GIVEN A TSB THAT THESE ARE "NORMAL" CHARACTERISTICS. IM SORRY BUT THERE IS NOTHING NORMAL ABOUT THAT AND THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP!! *TR

STEERING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD FIESTA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE ABNORMALLY. THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED AND WOULD STEER THE VEHICLE INTO THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION UPON TURNING. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO SEIZED FOR A BRIEF MOMENT. THERE WAS AN ILLUMINATION OF THE TRACTION CONTROL ON AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF WARNING INDICATORS. THE FAILURE RECURRED FOUR TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DETECTED A TROUBLE CODE WITHIN THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR MODULE HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.
