It so painful to pay such a huge amount of money only to find that the car is giving me such problems meaning that the car that I bought brand, new, will always surprises me with new problems each an everyday. I would understand if I a bought the car as a demo or second hand. It is really sad indeed buying a brand new car that is forever going to ford to be fixed, or booked for this and that as if it 10 yrs old, the problems with this car are growing everyday, one problem after the other.

I was told to bring back the Car at the dealership , I took the car at the dealership the following day, it was booked for three days, I was told the car had a problem with calibrations, after three days the car had the same problem, I told Danie, car was booked to the fixing again . The day when I took the car for fixing, I told Danie that the rear Sensors are a problem and malfunctioning I am not happy at all , and there is No Bar that shows which side is the object that the car senses. He responded positively by email, please refer to communication attached by emails . I have been communicating with Danie about the Bar which he told me, that the Bar for the rear sensors were ordered I must just wait for the delivery, when the bar has arrived he will personally come fetch the car for fitment, because Bar form part of the rear sensors they come standard. Until today that has never been realized, on my last communication with the dealership, I was told Danie has left the company, as if that was not enough. 2016 history: Last month I noticed that the brand new car ST has a problem with the air conditioning, it is malfunctioning at times it hot, at times is cold, changes by itself, the headlights deem, I couldn't see the object that were far, I wrote an email to the dealership, I was asked to bring the for diagnosis, which I was told it was fixed, even though it was out of hustle and after I wrote numerous emails to ford head office. 2016 history Today when I was washing the car I realised the sensor inside the car are not working, it cannot sense if there anyone in the car, before it could sense if there is a n object or an intruder when the car is locked, it could alarm or if I left the windows open, then trying to take something in the car the would alarm. 2016 history It is sad indeed buying a brand new car that is forever going to ford to be fixed, the problems with this car are growing everyday, one problem after the other. Now I am awaiting for the rear sensors to be fixed, I am told the machine for the sensors is not working since I was told last week, no one at the dealership is communicating with me about progress, hope that one day this email will receive your utmost attention, and someone from the dealership will remember and call me to update me. I am really tired of a car that is always fixed with one problem after the other whereas the car is brand new, The your positive response shall change the perception I have now 2016 For how long will I live with a car that is forever going to a dealership for fixing or for diagnosis? Is it fair that I buy a brand new car at ford 3-6 down the line the car goes to a dealership for it to be fixed? Please refer to communication with the dealership and the salesperson and pictures attached for areas and where the car needed attention. Faults with the car 1) Air con was not working properly. 2).
