“The car was purchased last november 2019, during the first month, I noticed that the icp was not properly working while using the GPS- it gives wrong direction even the settings were correctly set, like it was remotely controlled. Besides that my battery was discharged that I needed to jumpstart it and towed it because the 1st time jumpstarting didn't work. It happened 4x, brought it twice to Ford dealer to check everything was okay. It even send me alarm thru Ford app that it was put on sleep mode even it was parked and it is frequently used. …”
