277,000 miles here and still going strong. It’s a street legal go kart pretty much, I can throw it in the corners with no brakes and it stops on a dime cuz it weighs like 50lbs😭😭

@notavailable2838 2 жыл бұрын

if you're buying a used fiesta and you drive fast and you bought from somewhere like a rental place or previous owner a old lady I almost guarantee you'll be replacing the throttle within the first year. I bought my car 63k miles previous owner was old lady it was very well taken care of but was never driven past 80 most likely 😂 had to replace my throttle in the first 6/mo other then that no problems. I went thru Ford and paid 600$ and now that I know how easy it is to replace I'm crying 😂😂😂😂 thank you!

@Tealstang1995 Жыл бұрын

My 2011 I bought new never had one issue with it. Still driving strong only replaced the oil and air filter. Front brakes once and shocks. That’s it. Been a great car.

Also don't forget about the PowerShift transmission if you go for the automatic version of any ford car from this gen. My mum's stopped working at like 50'000 km. There's also a class action against ford in the US and Australia regarding this.

@joeyschmoey9138 11 ай бұрын

If anybody considering buying one used get the manual. 2011 here 117k miles 100% reliable. The original front rotors passed inspection every year until I change them recently. Even the headlights are original.

My car has low power and makes a buzzing noise at low RPMs with 10-40% throttle. And it only is a problem with warm air. After a long driving session it occasionally has a rough idle. Couldn’t find a vacuum leak so maybe it’s the throttle or fuel pump. Edit: Yes I had the DCT replaced. Edit: When I say warm air, I mean warm weather. It does get worse after I drive it a bit, but it can be it can happen immediately after start up and is almost nonexistent in weather under 78F.
