Listen.. I’m honest and I’m not trying to slander Ford here. But within the first 20,000 miles my TCM (trans control module) needed to be replaced. Which is actually out for a recall and luckily my warranty covered it so I was okay with that. But then my ACM (audio control module) went out.. this is by far the most annoying thing I’ve had to deal with any of my cars. This is not covered on the warranty yet thousands of customers reportedly have had the same issue. Your cars radio will stop working and you get really loud random crackling and popping sounds! This becomes super distracting and it’s scary because you don’t know when it’s going to happen.. I called ford and they said they wanted $150 to diagnose the problem.. okay so I paid it. THEN they tell me it’s the ACM and they want $800 more dollars to replace, install and program it!! Now why should I have to pay for something I didn’t know was defective? It’s also a huge safety hazard when you’re driving!! I’m not the only one with this issues and it SHOULD be covered in the warranty. Anyways.. the controls modules in these vehicles are crap. Don’t buy this car unless you want to deal with shifting issues and radio issues. No help from Ford what so ever. I won’t be buying another.

Worst purchase EVER!

Not worth the gamble! Sure some of these cars are fine, but there seems to be a high percentage of true lemons. Despite an extensive test drive to stay clear of the bad DCT and all, a few hundred miles later, I seem to be the lucky winner of one of the worst of the worst. This car started going downhill fast once about 4 or 500 miles was put on it. This car is now as loud as a soft top jeep on the highway, and with the dct transmission is one of the poorest driving cars I have EVER experienced. This car is 110% poorly constructed junk. Frankly I would rather walk then drive this loud bucking surging grinding rattling embarrassing piece of excrement. Worst purchase I have ever made.

I find myself looking out at it or taking quick glances at it when I am at home...I researched a long time to locate the car I wanted, and I found it. at firs,t I didn't care about the color because I would have been happy with a few other choices, but the color is actually one of the things I like best about it. I chose a dark, sparkly pewter color. It looks understated and classy. The other thing I adore about it is the quiet drive. I can shut everything out and just drive...awesome!

Everything's working except (1) rear view camera screen losses the electronically superimposed guidelines by itself, occurring nearly every other day, (2) A/C button on climate screen is lit after start but manual control screen says AC is off. Gas mileage ok, but not impressive, only 29 mpg compared to my '03 Murano's 21 mpg for the same driving. Handling and ride are decent, bordering on fun. reasonably quiet with bare minimum acceleration power. Braking is not confidence inspiring.
From a happy owner

I have owned this manual focus for almost four years by now. Absolutely no problems and it needs no major services other than regular oil changes. It now has over 45000 miles and is still running like new.
