There is an electrical issue where the whole interior/dash system and door panel buttons fault. There is no heat or air flow and the windows will not roll up or down. If the windows are rolled up during summer and it faults the car gets up over 100 degrees quickly. This could kill me and my passengers. Also if it is cold or raining with there being no air flow the front windshield fogs and there is no defrost causing visibility to completely diminish. We have taken to a Ford dealership for repair and they did not fix the issue. This has been an ongoing issue for 2 years. We have also attempted to replace the whole control module and this did not fix the issue. I do not have any more money to put into this car in an attempt to fix the issue and it may not work. This is very unsafe for myself as well as the children in my care with child death tolls growing due to heat exposure in hot cars or freezing in the winter. This is at no fault of my own. No warning signs show on the vehicle prior to this happening.

April 13th, 2018 approximately 4:45pm. Picked up my kids from school get back into my car, start ignition and start driving home from school. Air conditioner stops working, locks lock, windows won't go down. There is no way to get air into the car.I took the car to peoria ford on april 16, 2018 and they had the car 2 weeks and 1 day and replaced the electronic board. I received the car back on tuesday may 1st. I drove the car on sunday may 6th to take my kids to their fathers house. The air conditioning once again went out while driving, doors automatically locked and windows wouldn't roll down. The temperature was 101 when this happened. I drove it home and it sat in my driveway until monday, may 7th. It had to be towed to the dealership as it was to hot to drive that day and the air conditioning would not work, windows wouldn't roll down and doors would lock upon driving. The radio also gets stuck into high volume so you have to turn the blue tooth on to get silence. This also happened early august 2017 and the engine was replaced in september/october 2017. This is a dangerous situation as the only way to get air to me and my children is to stop the car and get out. This does not work when you are in highway traffic. This happens both stationary and driving.

I picked my daughter up and started the car. The radio was blasting. I couldn't turn it down. The air conditioner wouldn't come on. There was a message on the display panel warning of "temporarily lost communication with the climate system". When this happens the check engine light comes on, the air conditioning stops working, the windows will not roll down, the touch screen does not work, and the radio cannot be adjusted. Locks on doors are also frozen. Seats will not adjust. We are basically trapped inside the car with no air. It was 95 degrees outside and there was no air flow. This is very dangerous. Both my kids were with me. This happens when car was stationary and in motion.
