When I almost stopped couldn't steer at all. Purchased october 27, 2020, it is currently january 13, 2021 and has 601 miles on it. It has been in the shop for 3 days. Ford dealership verified that is was a factory weld failure. The piece that broke off made a notch in the tire which will be shown in the photos. …”

“I bought this car on 12/15 with 97k miles on it, and the second day it started jilting very badly when SLIGHTLY acceleration. Now, I have noticed when I am at a stop light, it takes an additional 2-5 seconds to “Jult” back up to speed while everyone else that was at the light is very much so ahead of me. There were a few times the car didn’t accelerate, and the person behind me almost hit me.”
