Used 2012 Ford Fiesta Hatchback Consumer Reviews
beware of oil leak!!
Bought this car yesterday with 20 miles, today at home I woke up and went to see the under of the car and it was leaking oil from the union of the tranny and engine in one of the bolts, so I did research and saw it is a common issue for the fiesta, I got mad and called the dealer and they swap it out for another one which does not leak, make sure to check if it is leaking before you buy, other than that awesome car, also the tranny is very noisy and the automatic shift feels weird. I can't believe a new car can leak oil what a shame ford
Fiesta issues
I bought my fiesta 2 years ago.Within 1 month transmission was stuttering and shuttering.Multiple trips to Ford dealership concerning g transmission. Service was very rude.After several times of calibrating I eS told it needs a clutch. Long story short we have had 3 clutch's put in.The last one is out already.Now I am also having issues with mass air support system and loud noises while I am driving.The car is awful

Unbelievable fiesta
We get 43+ mpg in hwy. Why buying an hybrid. The only fault is the noise in the cabin, all you heard is the road, unless you crank you radio.

don't every buy this thing.
i just wanna say i don't know much about cars but i will never buy a Ford again because of my experience with this Ford Fiesta. I've had this car for just over a year (bought it end of August 2017. currently end of December 2018) and it's been in the shop at least once every two months. the clutch/transmition has been changed MULTIPLE times (at least 3 times) . i really do actually LOVE this car but we are getting tired of it being in the shop so often. I'm a collage students and a part time worker and if i miss theses this often it will ruing a lot. we are currently looking into trading it in and getting a Toyota and driving that instead and finish off paying the loan separately. My family is done buying Fords.

Car is more trouble than it's worth!
I have own my car for almost 2 years and it has been in the shop three times. They replaced the clutch under warranty twice and it looks like it needs it a third time which won't be covered. Apparently there is another problem with the transmission than what Ford is telling the dealerships what to fix. Thanks Ford for the temporary non beneficial fixes.
