I bought a 2013 Ford Fiesta in 2015 with low miles. During 9 months of driving the car, I started having engine problems. The car would "jerk" forward uncontrollably which made it undriveable. I didn't have enough money for repair in addition to my car loan payment. Ever since this incident, I vowed never to own a FORD car again. They are not as reliable as Honda, Toyota and Hyundai which I've owned and driven over the years without problems.

First off I want to state that I am 5 foot 8 and 270lbs. I just lost a 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis that this 2013 Fiesta replaced I could not get over how comfortable I am in and driving the vehicle Great and fun to drive I actually dont miss my grand marquis I cant believe that I actually just wrote that but this Fiesta is just about perfect I wish Ford would advertise this car more It is a superior value and just great to drive. Down falls are the automatic transmission that is rough to get used to and back seat room but hey I dont sit in the back seat The S should still come with a CD player and an interior truck release but these are the only complaints Great job Ford.
Great Car

So here goes: I have owned this car since Oct., 2014. I now have 66,000 miles on the odometer. Aside from gas and oil changes, and the 60,000 mile trans service which I did myself this car has cost me very little. I have consistently gotten 41.5 mpg on the freeway and a combined mpg of 36. This car performs pretty well in that it is peppy, handles like it’s on rails, and has the ride quality of a much bigger car. Is the dual clutch transmission a little hard to get used to? Yes. Why? Because it is basically a six speed manual that is electronically shifted. Sometimes you get clutch shudder. But the cure is simple. Make three or four wide open throttle runs from a standing start to 70 mph and it will scrub the clutches in. The complaints that the car will roll on a hill have not been present with my car which begs the question,”How steep of a hill are you trying not to use the brake on?” All of my automatics will roll somewhat on a steep incline. With the exception of my truck which has a extremely low torque converter stall speed. Would I buy another? Certainly. This has been an excellent car that is insanely cheap to own, yet doesn’t “feel” cheap when you drive it. Great little car. And this is coming from a man who is 6’ tall so don’t think there isn’t plenty of room. So after 5 1/2 yrs., this car has proven to be very reliable. It still nets 39-42 mpg depending on the quality of gas, and the octane (yes, even a small engine will get better gas mileage on premium). My only complaint:If you have the s model that comes with plastic wheel covers, be prepared to replace them often, or put a set of wheels on it like I did. After a trip to Illinois, the car that left with all four wheels covers arrived with only three. I be the people behind us got either a good laugh, or had to have the seats surgically removed after an avoidance maneuver. Aside from that, it has proven to be a VERY good car.
