I was driving to work on december 11, 2013 down rte 3a at approximately 8am. When i took a left onto westford rd., and accelerated up the hill the vehicle suddenly cut out to the point it would not go any further. I almost was hit from a car from behind me who also was accelerating up the hill, but fortunately he swerved around me in time. I called triple aaa and they towed it to palmer''s automotive.

During an oil change, the mechanic noticed that the right front turn signal was not working and changed the bulb. When the new bulb didn't work, he checked closer and determined that it was flashing very dimly . The dealer informed us that the smart junction box is the problem and will cost $600 to replace. There was no indication to the driver that a turn signal was not working and it was simply luck that the issue…

The front left turn signal is not working and the vehicle gives no warning of this fact (like when the bulb goes out and the turn signal blinks faster). The bulb and fuse are fine and according to the dealer it is the smart junction box which costs six hundred dollars to replace. My research online indicates that this is a common problem and i fail to see how ford does not consider inoperable turn signals to be…

Came home from work , went back out to car to go to store noticed left front turn signal bulb was on steady. Changed bulbs stayed on still. Had it checked out said it was the smart junction box. This is a common problem many people are having and something needs to be done to fix it. Ford needs to do a recall and make it right ! *tr

Airbag light stays on for the driver's side; sometimes i can get it to turn off if i restart the car. Not sure what would happen with the indicator light on; afraid that the airbag may deploy. Electrical: two things with the electrical. The first is the compass error. This actually occurred january 2012 (don't remember the mileage). I was parked in a parking lot and turned my vehicle on to have it warm up while i…

2007 ford fusion--my keys are getting stuck in the ignition which to me cause a risk of someone stealing your car. The key will not release and if the warranty or extended warranty has expired, ford will not pay to have the car repaired. This problem has been in existence with the focus & fusion since 2003 and ford has not issued a recall. I had to leave my car unlocked after lunch because i could not get the keys…

We replaced the ignition switch, and the ignition switch sensor and it still…
