WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD WHEN TURNED ON. THIS CONDITION OCCURS REGARDLESS OF SPEED SETTING OR THE INTERMITTENT SETTING. THIS CONDITION OCCURS REGARDLESS OF MOVING OR STATIONARY, SPEED OF MOTION, INTENSITY OF RAIN OR OTHER FACTORS. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY SINGLE TIME THAT I HAVE USED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS.

I EXPERIENCED WHAT OTHERS HAVE CALLED THE 'STOP SAFELY NOW' WARNING LIGHT AND FOLLOWED BY THE LOSS POWER AND STEERING ISSUES ON CITY STREET. THIS ISSUE HAPPENED MANY TIMES RECENTLY ON THE LOCAL STREETS (MARCH - APRIL, 2019). THANKS GOD, THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE FREEWAY ( OTHERWISE, I CAN'T IMAGE WHAT COULD HAPPEN). I FOUND THE TSB 17-0045 ONLINE FOR THIS PROBLEM AND BROUGHT THIS TSB TO MY DEALERSHIP. THEY CHARGED ME $$ TO GET THIS CAR FIXED BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTION OF THIS TSB ( HOPEFULLY THIS GOT FIXED). TSB 17-0045 SPECIFIED THE CARS BUILT 9/15-2011 TO 8/15/2014 MAY HAVE THIS ISSUE. MY CAR WAS BUILT ON JUNE 2014. I STRONGLY REQUEST NHTSA INVESTIGATE THIS URGENT SAFETY ISSUE.

I GOT A LOAN ON THE CAR LAST YEAR OF 2017 AND THE CAR HAD ISSUES ACCELERATING. I DO NOT RECALL THE DATE BUT MY HUSBAND AND WAS ON THE HILL AND I AND IT STATED TRANSMISSION DEFAULT. I TOOK THE CAR TO FORD AND THEY REPLACED THE CLUTCH. FOR ABOUT 2MTHS IT WAS FINE. THEN IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PROBABLY. THE CAR THEN STARTS TURNING OFF IN TRAFFIC AND I ALMOST WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT. I THEN REPLACED THE BATTERY. THEN I FINALLY DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO FORD AND THAT'S WHEN THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED MY ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM REPLACED. I CAN NOT AFFORD THAT AND I AM UNABLE TO PURCHASE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH WILL NOT EVEN COVER THE EXISTING ISSUES EVEN IF I DID PURCHASE IT. I CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE MY CREDIT ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH TO OBTAIN ANOTHER CAR. I PAY A MORE EVERY MONTH AND I NEED SOME HELP.

THE VEHICLE KICKS FORWARD DURING BRAKING. IT FEELS LIKE THIS HAPPENS AFTER A FULL CHARGE THE FIRST TIME THAT THE REGENERATIVE BRAKING MECHANISM TURNS ON. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED A STRONG KICK WHEN BRAKING AND GOING OVER A BUMPS, SUCH AS THE BUMPS THAT ARE ON LANE DIVIDERS.

MY STEERING LOCKED UP WHEN I PULLED AWAY FROM MY HOUSE, BUT I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE UNUSUALLY COLD MORNING. WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL DRIVEABLE, IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT, ESPECIALLY DURING TURNS. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR IN, I WAS TOLD THE ENTIRE RACK AND PINION STEERING HAD TO BE REPLACED, WHICH COSTS AROUND $2,000. THIS PROBLEM, CAUSED BY A SENSOR THAT CANNOT BE REPLACED ON ITS OWN BUT INSTEAD MUST HAVE THE ENTIRE STEERING REPLACED, HAS BEEN NOTED BY FORD AS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM TO THE POINT THAT MEMOS WERE SENT TO DEALERS TELLING THEM TO EXPECT CARS AT AROUND 50,000 MILES TO COME IN WITH THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR IS AT 52,000 MILES.

ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE ON 9/22/2017, THE CAR WHILE IN MOTION HAS ABRUPTLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY LOST ALL POWER AND ROLLED TO A COMPLETE STOP. WHEN THIS HAPPENS A WARNING INDICATOR ON THE DASH READS "STOP SAFELY NOW"! ONCE STOPPED, THE CAR IS UNRESPONSIVE AND CANNOT BE TURNED OFF OR RESTARTED. ONLY AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF WAITING (5+ MINS), THE CAR RESPONDS AGAIN, ALLOWING A RESTART. THANKFULLY, IN ALL FOUR INSTANCES, I HAVE BEEN TRAVELING ON CITY STREETS AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY, BUT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS THE CAR LOSES ALL POWER AND ONCE STOPPED IT WILL NOT RESPOND.

FURTHER ERROR MESSAGES OCCUR REGARDING LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL, USUALLY OCCURRING AT AROUND 5 MPH IN NEIGHBORHOOD.

OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS, THE VEHICLE DISPLAYS "STOP SAFELY NOW" AND ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SHUT OFF IMMEDIATELY AFTER OR SOON AFTER THE MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED AND THE CAR HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS OCCURS AT LOW CITY SPEEDS (20-30 MPH) AS WELL AS HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60-70 MPH) LEAVING THE DRIVER AND IT'S OCCUPANTS SITTING VULNERABLE TO BEING HIT BY MOVING TRAFFIC. THIS USUALLY OCCURS WHILE BRAKING TO SLOW OR STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED 15-20 TIMES OVER THE LAST THREE YEARS. WE HAVE BROUGHT IN THE CAR FOR SERVICE FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM 3-4 TIMES EACH TIME BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS DUE TO VARIOUS REASONS (HARNESS, LOOSE CONNECTIONS, FAULTY CIRCUITS, ETC.). NO FIXES TO DATE HAVE PERMANENTLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. USUALLY, THE PROBLEM IS TEMPORARILY RESOLVED WHEN THE VEHICLE COMES TO STOP, IT'S PLACED IN "PARK" AND THE CAR TURNED OFF. AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO, IT CAN BE RESTARTED AS NORMAL. HOWEVER, SEEING AS THOUGH THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY AT ANY SPEED, TAKING THE WORKAROUND STEPS DESCRIBED IS UNACCEPTABLE ON THE HIGHWAY OR AT INTERSECTIONS WHERE CAR OCCUPANTS CAN BE STRUCK AT ANY MOMENT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC GIVEN THE FREQUENCY OF THE ISSUE.

I HAD YET ANOTHER "STOP SAFELY NOW" WARNING IN WHICH THE CAR COMPLETELY LOST POWER TO THE DRIVETRAIN WHILE IN MOTION. I HAD PREVIOUSLY TAKEN IN THE CAR FOR THE RECALL IN JANUARY AND WAS TOLD THAT WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS POPPED UP AGAIN. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS THING TO HAPPEN TO HAVE A CAR SUDDENLY LOSE ALL POWER WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. FORD HAS CLEARLY NOT FIXED THIS PROBLEM YET.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT FREEWAY SPEED, IN COMMUTE TRAFFIC, AND THE POWER SHUT DOWN AND AN ALERT SHOWED ON THE DASH "PULL OVER SAFELY". THERE WAS NO POWER LEFT IN MY ELECTRIC VEHICLE, SO I COASTED OVER TO THE SHOULDER. THE CAR WOULDN'T DRIVE. CAR WAS TOWED TO FORD, WHERE IT HAS TAKEN OVER 2 WEEKS, AND THEY ARE STATING THE WHOLE MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE ARE ONLY 17,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. I "GOOGLED" THE "PULL OVER SAFELY" ALERT, AND HAVE FOUND THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR FOR MANY PEOPLE, AND THAT FORD HAD RECALLED OVER 2,000 FORD FOCUS EV CARS, MODEL YEARS 2011-2013, FOR THIS EXACT REASON.

AFTER TWO REPAIRS FOR RANDOM LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER, WITH TWO REPLACEMENTS OF HIGH-VOLTAGE WIRE HARNESS, CAR CONTINUES TO DISPLAY "STOP SAFELY NOW" WARNING ON DASH AND LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER. OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY HAZARD AS CAR HAS LOSS POWER IN TRAFFIC SEVERAL TIMES, FORTUNATELY WITHOUT INJURIES OR DAMGE. I AM RETURNING VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP FOR THIRD TIME TODAY FOR SAME ISSUE. FIRST REPAIR WAS IN BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER, 2015 AND SECOND REPAIR WAS DONE AT THE END OF APRIL 2016.

SIX TIMES MY CAR'S ENGINE HAS STOPPED WORKING. EITHER I AM DRIVING AND IT GIVES ME A 10 SECOND WARNING BEFORE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF OR I AM PARKED AND IT WON'T START UP PROPERLY. EVERY TIME IT GETS TOWED OR I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE UPDATED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND IT SHOULD BE FINE. FORD'S CORPORATE OFFICE HAS SAID RESULTS ARE INCONCLUSIVE AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP ME. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ONLINE, IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

"STOP SAFELY NOW". WHILE DRIVING, POWER TO THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED MULTIPLE TIMES. "STOP SAFELY NOW" MESSAGE SHOWS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 7 TIMES. THE FIRST WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY IN FEBRUARY. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF WAY OF TRAFFIC BEFORE IT CAME TO COMPLETE STOP. I TOOK IT TO FORD ON 2/24/16 AND THEY STATED THERE WAS A RECALL TO FIX THIS (I NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL). THEY MADE THE REPAIRS AND SAID IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. ON 4/18/16, THE CAR AGAIN COMPLETELY STOPPED AS I ENTERED AN INTERSECTION AND "STOP SAFELY NOW" MESSAGE APPEARED AGAIN. A SEMI-TRUCK BEHIND ME CAME TO A SKIDDING STOP, A FEW FEET FROM MY BUMPER. I WAS VERY LUCKY ONCE AGAIN TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE CAR TO NEWARK FORD AGAIN ON 4/18/16 AND THEY SAID THEY HAD TO UPGRADE THE SOFTWARE. I ASKED IF WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY SAID "ABSOLUTELY", THEY DON'T SEE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. ON 4/21, THE CAR AGAIN SUDDENLY STOPPED WHILE DRIVING 50MPH. THE SAME MESSAGE"STOP SAFELY NOW" APPEARED. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS OF THE LAST TWO TIMES THIS HAPPENED. I CALLED FORD CORPORATE OFFICE AND THEY SAID IF THE MECHANICS SAID THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE, IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. I SAID I DON'T FEEL SAFE SINCE THIS KEEPS HAPPENING AND THEY OBVIOUSLY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG. HE SAID IF YOU DON'T FEEL SAFE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DRIVE THE CAR. I TOLD HIM THAT IS NOT A GOOD SOLUTION AS I AM PAYING FORD TO LEASE THE CAR AND NEED TRANSPORTATION. HE SAID THERE IS NOTHING FORD CAN DO, IT HAS TO GO THROUGH THE STATE, FORD IS NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. HOW CAN I FEEL SAFE DRIVING A CAR THAT MIGHT SUDDENLY STOP AT ANY TIME?? I DRIVE 50 MILES EACH WAY TO WORK ON THE FREEWAY. I AM EXTREMELY SCARED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS GOING TO CAUSE ME TO GET IN A BAD ACCIDENT. WHY DOESN'T FORD ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS CAR AND THE EXTREMELY UNSAFE ISSUES?

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WITH NO POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND DISPLAYED A YELLOW TOOL WRENCH THAT READ 'SEE MANUAL' AND THEN WOULD CHANGE TO A YELLOW TRIANGLE WITH A RED EXCLAMATION MARK THAT READ 'STOP VEHICLE SAFELY.' HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AV FORD AND THEY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT UNHELPFUL. THEY STATE IT'S WATER INTRUSION TO THE CONNECTORS AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE MANUFACTURE WARRANTY AND TO FILE A CLAIM WITH MY AUTO INSURANCE COMPANY. THEY CANNOT PROVIDE ANY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING TO CONCLUDE THEIR WATER INTRUSION TO THE CONNECTOR'S THEORY. WE HAD A RAINSTORM THE DAY BEFORE I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO THEM. THEY ARE USING WATER INTRUSION DAMAGE AS A SCAPEGOAT TO FIXING THE REAL ISSUE WHICH IS A DEFECT TO THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE. FORD DID HOWEVER PROVIDE ME A WRITTEN ESTIMATE OF REPAIR FOR $33,160.42. THIS IS ABSURD AND IS MORE THAN THE CAR IS EVEN WORTH. THESE CARS CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE DESPITE OF THE RECALL THEY HAD FOR THIS PROBLEM. FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES THAT WERE NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2013 ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER BECAUSE THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED.

IT HAPPENED TO ME ON FREEWAY WITH KIDS ON BOARD AND WAS VERY SCARY. FORD WOULD NOT HELP. MY CAR IS NOT ON RECALL LIST THOUGH THIS IS EXACT SAME ISSUE REPORTED ON NHTSA WEBSITE ABOUT THIS CAR. DEALER IS SUPER BUSY AND I DON'T EXPECT MY CAR TO BE LOOKED AT FOR DAYS. ITS REALLY FRUSTRATING TO BE HELD HOSTAGE ON THIS, BEING STUCK WITH NO CAR TO COMMUTE TO MY WORK WITHOUT ABSOLUTELY ANY FAULT OF MINE.
