THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT INCIDENCES THAT HAVE OCCURRED. (1) WHILE TURNING A CORNER OR SLOWING DOWN THE A/C WILL SHUT DOWN. (2) THE CONTROL PANEL INSTRUMENTS WILL GO ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE RIGHT AND THEN SURGE FORWARD WHEN TURNING A CORNER. (3) CAR HAS DIED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ESPECIALLY WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE ONTO HIGHWAY. (4) A/C WILL TURN ON BY ITSELF AND BLOW ON MAXIMUM EVEN WHEN POWER SWITCH IS TURNED OFF. (5) WHEN CAR LOSES POWER, ALL CODES ARE RESET SO DEALER IS UNABLE TO GET A CLEAR REASON WHY CAR IS DOING THIS. WE HAD A BLACK BOX INSTALLED FOR TWO WEEKS WITH SOME RESULTS PINPOINTED BUT AFTER IT WAS "FIXED" WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. DEALER CONNECTED A COMPUTER WHILE WE DROVE AROUND BLOCK AND THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT WE WERE PUSHING THE BRAKE AND GAS AT SAME TIME...NOT POSSIBLE! THE READING WAS THAT THE BRAKE HAD BEEN TOUCHED MORE THAN 2000 TIMES WHILE DRIVING 20 MILES. WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR IN REPAIR SHOP 8 TIMES AND NO RESOLUTION YET. DEALER SAID THEY WOULD STAND BEHIND VEHICLE WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AT NO COST WHILE WE TRIED TO FIND PROBLEMS BUT NOW WARRANTY IS UP AND THEY WANT US TO PAY FOR EXTENDED WARRANTY. WE WERE TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT IF WE APPLY FOR LEMON LAW THAT WE WOULD MOST LIKELY LOSE THE CASE AND IT WOULD ONLY COST US MONEY. ACCORDING TO TEXAS LAW...THIS CAR DEFINITELY QUALIFIES~ WE ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM OUR ATTORNEY. I HOPE NO ONE ELSE BUYS THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE~ *TR

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW. IT WAS REPAIRED ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASSIONS FOR PROBLEMS STEMMING FROM THE WINDSHIELD SENSOR AS WELL AS THE MOLDING WAS NOT CORRECTLY PUT ON THE DOOR. NOW THE BENCH SEAT WILL NOT FOLD DOWN. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY APPARANT ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL ACCORDING TO THIS WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.FORDFLEX.NET/FORUMS/VIEWTOPIC.PHP?F=14&T=5363 THE CAR IS THREE YEARS OLD AND HAS 59K MILES ON IT BUT FOR A FAMILY WITH ONE CHILD, THIS MECHANISM SHOULD NOT BE DYSFUNCTIONAL. ITS NOT AS IF IT WAS GETTING A LOT WEAR AND TEAR FROM ACCESSING THE 3RD ROW SEATING AREA. IS FORD REVIEWING THESE COMPLAINTS? *TR
