This is hands down, the worst car ever made. I have made cars with my Lego sets that are more reliable. Constant transmission problems along with a non functioning Sync system makes this car horrific. However, it is cute to look at; but that's all it has going for it. Don't you dare buy this car!

This is the most fun on 4 wheels I've ever had. I let people drive my car and they compare it to a high performance mini-sports sedan. The thing corners like it's on rails, gets over 40mpg regularly, has one of the BEST sounding stereo systems from the factory and has safety features out the wazoo. The up and coming 2014 Fiesta ST will be incredible. My car, with 120hp, accelerates fine. I can't imagine it with almost 200hp!!

Owned the car for 2 years. No issues with the car that are outside of normal maintenance. The car was great in the illinois. Traveled well, got greatness mileage and was not too bad comfort wise. We recently sold the vehicle because needed something all wheel drive in as we moved to snow belt. This vehicle was okay in light snow but not the greatest in heavy snow. It was a very good vehicle though.

Bought a Fiesta Sedan for a steal back in 2019. Ran very smoothly for about 2 years, when the transmission was suddenly was not working properly. Even getting it fixed, the car was never the same again. Occasional sputtering is what one would experience from this as well.

Adaptive Transmission and Poor Gas consumption issues

We purchased the 2012 Ford Fiesta SE (Auto) in August of last year. Since we have put on over 33,000 km on it. Never had a issue with until last week. While accelerating there seemed to be a slip or clunk in the transmission and there would be no acceleration for a very brief period of time. We also started to notice a dramatic drop in our MPG. The first 8 months of use we would get around 650km per tank of gas on a mixed driving terrain. Now we are lucky to push 425km per tank. Dealer says it was the ATC and said it is fixed now. We will see. I really hope the gas consumption gets resolved.
