Rented an almost-new Flex for three weeks while my car was in the shop. It won't win a beauty contest, and it's not exactly macho, but that's pretty much where my complaints end. It handles better than a big SUV, has plenty of power in town and on the road, and is really easy to enter and exit. The third row is easily accessed and there were no complaints by the two adult passengers back there during a 30-minute trip. Seats are a little flat, but comfortable. They heat up quickly. I live in a town of Mercedes, BMWs, Lexuses and Porsches, so it was fun asking the valets to retrieve the black Flex. This is a moderately-priced all-around workhorse of a car that will handle the snow and rain as well as most of the more expensive, less comfortable, clunkier trucks and crossovers. And as far as looks go, you don't notice them when you're inside.

I purchased a used 2019 Ford Flex SEL in July 2020 and I love this car. Rides nice, looks sweet, lots of options. After owning it for a couple of weeks I started to have an issue with every dummy light coming on and it logging a code P2610. Had it to dealer 2 times and they cannot duplicate issue and cleared the code. At one point I couldn’t start the car. The dealer said they need to duplicate the issue while connected to their diagnostic machine. In 2 months it has lit up the service engine light 3 times. The car has 35000 miles on it. We’re afraid to take it too far knowing it may not get us back with out a tow. Each time it failed the engine did not shut down and I lost no control. The alerts were Steering assist fail, oil pressure low, coolant temp high, abs failure , traction control failure and the navigation system failed. Seems no one else online had this issue but it’s a real issue. There are no recalls on my VIN so I’m stuck with a lemon and a car note on something my wife is afraid to drive.

FORD! Bring back the Flex!

Once again, this auto maker ceased manufacturing on an excellent vehicle! Stop blaming the car and start a better marketing avenue! The 2019 Ford Flex handles like a limo. The seating and or cargo area is the easiest to change. The Flex can handle 7 passengers or you can lay all the seating down for lumber, plywood etc. This vehicle is awesome and what a waste that Ford decided to stop production!

The Ford Flex is the best car I have ever driven. I have leased several Flex, and I am very disappointed that Ford has stopped building this model. It has great visibility and maneuvers well. It is a very comfortable car, and easy for older people to enter and exit. The back two rows fold down to allow for transporting large items.
Better than I expected

Despite what others say about its looks, I've always liked the square shape of the Flex and its low proximity to the ground. I think it looks cool. What I didn't know was how fun they are to drive. I have an SEL model, not the Ecoboost, but man, it scoots around really nimble and quick. Which really took me by surprise, ...and other motorists lining up beside me at stoplights. Not joking. I've made a few people mad who thought their sports cars were going to pass me, only to see me pull away. My other cars are a Charger SRT and an Escalade (405hp). And my Escalade has the same effect. Most cars think Escalades are slow. They are not. Try to race one, and you'll be quite surprised, and usually embarrassed. The Charger is a no-brainer. Nobody tries it but Mustangs and Teslas. But the Flex?? ....nobody expects anything from it. Neither did I before I test drove it. Besides its quickness, it's just comfortable to sit in, feel, and drive. Even when you're driving at casual speeds scooting around town. It's fun. What annoys me is the electronics. They seem to come on and off whenever they like. First my headlights and caution lights stopped working, then my interior fan started turning off intermittently, then the rear door hatch kept signaling "Gate Open" on my dash, over and over and over every 30 seconds, even though it was closed. It lasted a week or two, then it was gone. Just about drove me crazy for that week though! What's also puzzling is the Bluetooth that works for phone calls, but not for music. If you're gonna install a Bluetooth connection in your stereo system, ....why would you not allow a music connection?? Just stupid. I noticed however, there IS an Aux line-in, hidden in the arm console. I have yet to try it, but I assume it's for your phone or MP3 music connection. But a strange place to put it, considering you'd have to leave the armrest cracked open to run a line to your phone on the outside of it. Strange. But other than that, I really love the car. When I sell it or trade it in, it'll probably be for another Flex with the Ecoboost AWD. Good car! ...I mean SUV, ...er, what the heck is it??
