- Electrical Gremlins and Battery DrainModerate
General electrical issues include battery drain, infotainment glitches, heated windscreen segment failures and door-module faults. The car can go flat if left unused for more than a few days.
- PowerShift Gearbox Judder (Automatic Models)Serious
The dry-clutch 6DCT250 PowerShift automatic suffers the same judder, hesitation and mechatronic failure issues as other Ford models. Urban stop-start use accelerates wear.
