The moon roof window opened with out any button being pressed. Storm rain was starting. There was a lot of auto traffic. I was driving , my wife was sitting next to me and there was a car coming out of a parking lot to the left of me and perpendicular to my car :what happened next simultaneously was: a. Auto went into "collision avoidance mode"; windshield several red LED warning lights began blinking, and alert noise from auto started , and steering wheel shuttered. The later two actions are not terribly clear to me b my wife started to shout for me to watchout. C I started to press on brakes. Thus avoiding a collision between my car and car to be moving across my path I was told that the car does not stop in any type of collision mode. It just slows down. I did not know whether this avoidance mode was present (at the slow speed I was going in. I did know that when the car was in cruise control and this mode was activated and that avoidance reactions were activated. . I am very concerned that this may happen again. With serious consequences occurring.

While driving to work on the highway 65-MPH the engine shuts off without warning, the instrumental panel starts acting up as if you are turning on and off the key. They found a lose wire to the instrumental cluster on the second time they replaced the instrumental cluster. It has been taken back six times and now the dashboard shuts down and I lose lights, signals, and other electronic features. I have lost power steering and brakes in between. They offered me an extended warranty??? It is a shame that a consumer who buys a car from a dealership has to go through the grinder just to get out of their lemon. I just want to get out of this vehicle.

I was traveling at about 40mph and a message flashed on my gauge stating something to the effect engine lower temp. I continued to drive the car and message went away. I later found out that my car had been recalled for possible fire due to engine overheating. I assume that this message is the pre-cursor to what could be a possible fire. I took my car to the ford dealership and I am awaiting a response from ford on a possible fix. The car was only 1 week old. I have requested ford to take the car back and get into a non-affected engine type.
