I had to take my car for a fuel pump module they that is under warranty ford said that the headlights are not covered. There are no cracks in the headlights the service writer said that the seals must be bad to me that sounds like their is a defect in the seals, this is also a safety hazard consider my car is only a 2016 2 years old this should not be happening.

I first noticed when I went up an incline that the transmission seemed to have a slight stutter. Then on a recent trip to north carolina and was going up a long hill that the transmission shifted out of gear and the RPM reveved up then it slipped back into gear.also in future you might put the trunk button in a different place so it is not hit every time you turn off the head lights. But by the time I got back to texas the transmission had shuttered,slipped and gone back into gear many times. When I would kick the car down to get into the passing lane and pass someone it would try to stall which can cause accidents if its heavy traffic situations. And these were in highway situations like I-20 in dallas and on the road outside of areas like that. It was less noticeable with intown driving but still there.the lesser problems started approx. Three weeks after I got this car and always at a street by the elementary school here in clyde because its the route I took to take my grandson to school. The major problems I had were on the trip to and from north carolina where my sister was on her death bed and the doctor told the family to get there.
