Same problem as previous. Initial road trip with car, on the freeway, intermittent odd noise coming from rear of vehicle. The heat shield over the muffler and catalytic converter tore loose due to poor design and had to be replaced. Should wait until repeatable.Īpplied TSB to address the stall no start issues that occurred last month Expected symptom after previous problem could not be reproduced- dealer said vent valve failure was likely with time, but driving was safe. Gas filler tube assembly gasket released gas tank pressure, dealer re-seated the gasket and couldn't reproduce the noise.Ĭheck engine light was on, car had difficulty starting after refueling. Took it to Ford where they performed TSB 13-12-12, changing wires.Ĭheck engine light on, loud thumping/flatulence sound from the rear of the car.

Dealer noted that the coolant level was low added coolant. Returned to dealer for engine overheating. Problem not resolved has happened once since then. Taken to dealership dealer was unable to replicate. A sensor on the emissions system had gone bad.Įngine overheated on several occasions while idling with the A/C running. EVAP control.Ĭoolant overflow bottle had stress cracks on the underside of the bottle causing a small leak, dripping on the right side engine mount.Ĭheck engine light illuminated. Jumped battery to no avail.Ĭheck engine light came on. No crank, light, radio, and everything else worked. No heat caused by radiator cap not being secured previous trip. Coolant bypass solenoid failed, which from what I can gather, seems to be a modern day interpretation of a thermostat. P26B7 CEL, + little heat + poor fuel mileage of 16mpg. Gas mileage is suffering is since noise developed. Turbo got very loud, dealer replaced 'entire system' but wasn't forthcoming with better info, still not happy.
