Freestyle2006 • 9 years ago

06 Freestyle is doing same thing. Took it in they could not find problem with machine, but did order new ABS censor & had it replaced. Test 100.00 part 200.00. As I drove out of the lot the same thing happened, so made new appointment. This time I never shut the car off so the ABS light stayed on. They are now saying that it is further down the wiring harness. Every time it goes for test it's 100.00. If they keep replacing parts that are not gone it cost more money till they find the part that is gone. grrrrr

Rich B. • 5 years ago

I dont really believe it is your ABS censor these vehicles had bad soldering joints in the instrument cluster main board from the factory which will make your vehicle act up in different ways ! My 2005 Ford Freestyle has that issue the check oil light and Emergency brake light will come on together on the dash thus making the turn signals not show up blinking in the instrument panel but outside the vehicle they are working normally but while those two lights are on in the panel my reverse lights are actually on while im going forward down the road ! Definitely should have been among lots of other major issues like the with the CVT transmissions in the 2005 - 2007 models as well but weren't because those recalls would have cost Ford Motor company hundreds of thousands of dollars and then they would have to need bailed out like the other major car companies !

It is the sensor. They crack. It's a little gear around the axle shaft. Mine did it, and guarantee that is the problem

Joe Boucher • 4 years ago

Is it the sensor that cracks or the gear around the axle?

Ryan • 4 years ago

The gear around the axle

2002 f-150 horn will blow at times in the middle of the night, what could be the cause of this??

Rolleth • 8 years ago

You need to reset your tire sensor indicator by turning your key forward 3 times butnot cranking and then press braek once and turn it forward 3 more times not cranking and the horn will honk once, then take your tire valve magnet tool and hold near valve stem outside of front left tire valve and truck will honk once, go to front right and when it honks go to back right tire valve holding tool near valve (sensors are inside) and then to the back left = this should reset it and do away with the noise at night

The most likely possibility is that you inadvertently left your dog in your truck and he is hungry, uncomfortable, or just plain misses you, even though he is angry at you for leaving him in there all night long without even a bone.

Sam • 6 years ago

The engine on my 07 Ford Escape xlt just died. I purchased the car less than 3 months ago, it only has 94000 miles on it. Oil was changed less than than a month.
Seen a lot of complaints about 07 Ford Escape,
Does anyone know if there is a recall or a way to fix this?
Any help would be appreciated

Erica Monrreal • 7 years ago

Im very scared to get near it and dont know what to do with my 2000 Ford Expedition. It makes clicking noises like blinker is on or wipers and at times goes real fast. I felt water droplets on me while driving and noticed that floors were wet front and back. The radio changes stations by itself or turns off. The a/c turns on or off or blows air hard when i turn engine off. If i tilt steering wheel lights flash on dash or the wiper light comes on and i hear clicking. Now if engine is On just few seconds but not driving it the engine made a loud scary noise like if metal hit metal hard might spark. Noticing its more severe when it rains. What can i do? Im affraid to get inside and turn it On. Air was blowing inside last night after i parked and turn off engine. I left it like that now i dont know if it went dead. My battery is only 3days old just bought it. I need help, ideas please.

John • 7 years ago

My cousin has a 99 F350 SD that is having some of these problems. It turns out the metal around the top of the windshield is rusting and leaking down the roof supports and into the dash causing corrosion and electrical problems including shutting itself off whenever and wherever. So that is probably your problem,

Erica Monrreal • 7 years ago

John yes yes you were right!!! You mentioned rust. In order to take a real good look i went to buy a step stool because my Expedition is lifted and its hard for me to see. And yes, I saw rust and corrosion under the ski rack so when it rains the water must get inside. Makes my truck feel like its possessed when lights go on, 4X4 on and off on the fwy, radio went nuts too.Finally it never came back on until the rain season ended. Now im thinking it probably went out as a protection because wires were getting wet. Dangerous right. Anyways thank you for that suggestion i was sad thinking i had to put my truck to rest but i dont.She has a great engine after all these years.I still have so much fun driving it. Its all good right now but what will i do when it rains again? Im thinking of neatly sealing it myself with a can of that liquid rubber stuff.

Steering column randomly locks up when driving down the road on 2006 ford Mustang. .any suggestions?

Rolleth • 8 years ago

if it does it when it is only going slow then it is a tube in the fuel system clogging a sensor making it lock up. Run premium, clean your throttle bottle and fuel system, change fuel filter

HELLO ALL..MAYBE SOMEONE CAN HELP..2006 ford escape 4 cyl auto with 155k on clock. when keys are removed from the ignition, most of the dummy lights stay on.jf j do not remove the fuse to the gauge cluster, the battery dies in two days or so. alternator was done. plugs were replaced. what could be causing this to happen? all connections to the computer on firewall were checked and also check this out, i unplugged that computer , all three plugs and the dash dummy lights still stay on....any advice will be appreciated/ thanks

Tim • 8 years ago

Is your ignition switch good, if you have alot of keys on your key ring it tends to be too much weight for the switch to handle. If you have power to the radio with the key off it sounds like your ignition switch is bad

I have a 98 Ford Contour, the battery light comes on at speeds of 60 0e higher. Then it will go off at speeds 55 and below.

Elyne Strauss • 8 years ago

Just bought a 2015 Fiesta (with 6 gears) last Monday. I heard and felt it shift hard at 5-8 mph intervals. Also, found the car not starting on first attempt. The dealership said it would be good to step on the brake when you have a push button. I told him that it didn't have a button. Last night (5/3/15) I found grease all over the front hub caps. The salesman at Community in Mooresville sold me the car with a $1000 rebate (?). I hope this isn't a lemon. And, I hope I don't have to wait 1500 miles to get it fixed!

I drive a Ford Ikon. Three weeks ago my front left wheel "Steel Rim" broke in two and fell off while I was driving. After weeks of fighting with ford we discovered after I took the car to the AA that all the wheels including the spare was cracked. They are replacing everything now free of charge.

Ford Taurus X 2009 bucks and misfires at speeds of 40-60 mph. Loses power! Intermittently usually when engine is warm. Sometimes does not do it at all when driving. However when you suddenly lose power when it acts up it becomes a safety hazard. Replaced transmission , motor mounts, axels, coil packs. 7,000 dollars! Camshaft issues??? Many blogs with same issue for this engine. Why had Ford not done a recall!!

Tiffany • 9 years ago

I have a 2003 ford explorer xlt and ive been having problems with it starting. It turns over but when my boyfriend went to the part store they said it was the fuel pump. But they said that there was a button you hold that is a fuel reset button or somthing like that on the passenger side, then you turn the key to almost start 9 times til your truck restarts. You would think it wont happen again but it still is. Im so confused tired of problems is there a recall?
