Dash lights do not work. Cannot see any dash gauges. Speed unknown. Dealer says unknown problem. Cannot fix. Non dearer repair shop gives same answer. Not safe to operate. Unknown speed , fuel level etc. also loud thump in transmission , has done this since purchased in 2010. Dealer has looked at this many many times and says nothing wrong. Many complaints on internet about both of these problems.
Issue: Abrupt engine shutoff while driving at high speed. Occurance: While driving on an interstate highway at approximately 70MPH in far left lane, the vehicle abruptly shutoff. With no power, the power steering also did not function, however, had enough speed to safely pull onto the grass median. It appears the problem is with a known issue to Ford, which is the fuse for the fuel pump (#27 in the engine compartment PDB) will melt and cause either intermittent or complete failure even while driving at high speeds. Given the conditions I was extremely lucky to have been able to pull off, and then back on to the roadway safely. Ford has a fix available Fuel Pump Jumper Harness Kit. Kit Terminal Part #: WT56872 (14293) as a result of this problem, yet it seems there is no active recall for this to be installed. WHY??? This could have resulted in multiple deaths and injuries for a single incident - I think that's unacceptable and hope the federal safety agency will concur and compel a recall to fix this issue.
