Ford Fiesta 2011 to 2019 Common problems, issues, defects, recalls and complaints

[@neilhampson2843]

That's a long list of faults, throwing money at a car, solves the problem,

[@Keque]

Ford Fiesta Ecoboost 2015. My Timing belt has broken (luckily nothing was damaged), my transmission control module needed replacing and my clutch has been giving issues. What have they done with this design?

[@jackbeames7643]

Is the sync problem only US cars or U.K. too? As my radio keeps freezing and turning off

[@jessesan2003]

I had problems with my radio, took to a car radio repair shop for loose solder joints and rebuild the pc board. Works fine now, $300. Used one would have cost the same and problems.

[@carolynburton1628]

USA here we have to click on sync then on bottomed of screen and clpa more things then it works.ours freezes but that's due to the signal or tunnels.

You can add bearings in manual gearbox on 1L ecoboost around 50-60,000 miles.

My Ford Fiesta Ecoboost 2017 with 64,000 km on the clock .. 2 months ago, the clutch & transmission died. Cost me €2,500 to get new clutch & transmission !! Now, the clutch is stuck in Reverse and they cannot fix it as yet ?? Absolute nightmare !! Will never, ever, ever, ever, buy a FORD again .. even if FORD offered me a new car.

What about the coolant problems.

[@luispolino3927]

What kinda of coolant problem?

[@vilefiles5998]

just found out mine has a recall for a coolant level sensor. randomly overheated while parked 2 times. hope the recall fixes the issue…

[@lea-rw5cb]

Mine is losing coolant think may be waterpump as no smoke at back if it was going into engine and no visible leakage on pipes

[@stevieboy6286]

​@@luispolino3927sudden coolant loss but cars were recalled and a different pipe fitted

[@erin19030]

Looks like a nice dependable basic car too me.

Not is a fiesta with out problems!!!

[@keithdmaust1854]

10 second overview: vehicle is Ford junk, designed to fall apart at 30.000 miles.

[@2BuckShot]

Sounds like your problem since you dont know which ones to avoid and which ones to get🤷

[@keithdmaust1854]

2BuckShot - well, not really. I was willed my 2016 Fiesta to me by my elderly mother when she passed away. It only had 20,000 miles on it. The battery had EXPLODED at 10,000 miles. The climate controls failed at 25,000 miles. Factory tires shot at 30,000. Windshield gasket is failing. Now the front struts have completely failed at 35,000 miles. And both her and I totally baby the car. Your response???

[@besuw1]

My ford fiesta has 200,000 miles on it... easier to maintain then newer cars are not as expensive either

[@joeyschmoey9138]

What year and is it manual or automatic trans? 2011 and 117k miles here zero issues, if I bought the automatic I'm sure it would not have lasted this long.

[@willie9560]

@@joeyschmoey9138 It depends on you what is your problem when driving.

[@johnjacobsen4003]

Crap cars.. Solution? Stop making them! Oh, they did already, thanks Ford.

[@willie9560]

In Northen America only FORD!

[@bongodave13]

Get the 1.6 with a manual, or the ST. Reliable little cars. The auto trans is junk. The 1.0 EcoBoom has problems, too. Stick with a 1.6 with a manual. The ST is quick and fun to drive.
