While i am driving down the road, it feels like the vehicle shuts off. i am still able to accelerate, steer and stop; however, the lights, heater and radio shut off and all of my gauges quit working. my dashboard says "check charging system" but the source of the issue has not been found. i have already replaced the starter (was making a clicking noise at times), battery and alternator. this has happened several times on different road types and varying speeds.
Dash cluster died unexpectedly while driving. found problem to be shoddy solder work on the circuit board causing multiple failures in the dash cluster and fuel system. happened during highway driving at 60 mph.
Vehicles says awd malfunction and traction control sensor won't shut off while driving on highway. the power locks also malfunctioned shortly before the awd malfunction, making it where it was unable to shut. the power lock was unlocked/locked a couple times fixing the issue for now.
My mom's 2006 ford freestyle, surges forward when using the air conditioner or defroster. there has been many times it has done this almost rear ending the vehicle in front of hher.this has been going on since beet and my deceased father have own it.(2010?) her instrument panel goes bonkers now, and sometimes the car won't start and the panic alarm goes off when we get out of the car.
All engine lights come on at various times with no working gauges, but car drives. withing past year, had instrument cluster replaced 2 times, alternator replaced twice, injector coils & spark plugs, cleaned/replaced, battery replaced, throttle body assembly & gasket, . had diagnosed at 2 ford dealers in different states and neither can figure out what is causing all the dashboard lights to stay on. both dealers were adament it was the instrument cluster, which clearly it is not since the error lights are still on. have been told it could be electrical or rcm, but there is no way to test for either. dealer wants me to foot the (hourly / union) labor rate while they try to figure it out. currently car is currently with local mechanic who is going over the car to figure it out. nothing has been determined yet.
I am having the issues that the investigation with the electric throttle body. they have a customer satisfaction program called 12n03 and it didn't last long enough for me to get the car that i purchased (this year) fixed. i have 66k miles on the car and the dealerships are using the 10 years or 150000 miles to mean that since my car is older than 10 years i don't qualify to get my car fixed to working order. when i use the key to start the car, it doesn't accelerate. the rpms lurch like the car is going to go somewhere and it doesn't and the wrench light comes on. i got this car 3 weeks ago and the dealership isn't fixing it and the ford dealerships aren't fixing it. i had no control over whether the previous owner got the message to get it fixed or not or whether they took the car to get fixed. now i have a car that i cannot drive and if it does "reset" (because turning it off and waiting a while used to kind of reset it to where it would work) ...
I left work at 8:10 p.m. starting driving home and my battery light came on while driving on a major highway and then everything shut down radio a.c. all gauges windows power locks lights . i was panicked i had just picked up the car the afternoon before from the ford dealership for a recall fix because this same thing happened already i was told the recall fix would solve the problem obviously it did not. now ford wants to charge a diagnostic fee to find the problem after failing to fix the problem to begin with . this is a real safety issue and should be dealt with i am a mom and a grand mother and always have a child in my car this issue should be a great concern to ford .
Car accelerating when ac in on and after ac has been of after that 1 day use. ac not working property. sensor issues. electrical issues, example window no longer rolls down. taken it to different mechanics but they can't find the problem. know it's turning off all in a sudden and having issues with the car brakes to kick in. had that check but they said everything is good, brakes and etc.... have already put around $5,000 and still not getting it to work safely. also stearing wheel gets stuck as if you can't turn the wheels on the car and then turns of after seconds.
My car surges and the rpms move without touching the gas. it tries to throw me into traffic when at stoplights and stop signs. it tries to throw me at people when driving slowly through parking lots. i have to put my car into neutral while at stops so that my family or other family's don't die because of a malfunction that ford had with the car when they sold it. i was never told about the malfunction and they say i'm years past the warenty and 20000 miles past the warenty milage. so because my car is 20000 over i guess it's okay for my car to kill me and my children or other people?
