Hello everyone,
So I bought a Bmax 1.6 power shift approximately a month and a half ago and so far have had a new clutch pack fitted due to the judder on low gears.
Have had numerous other bodywork issues aswell but that's dealer related.
Latest problem is with the indicating system which the car has gone back to the dealer for a third time today.
I noticed that when I approach a roundabout and signal right, the moment the wheel turns left to begin the manoeuvre the indicator clicks off. Ford mechanic stated that it was the stalk control unit which was replaced but never rectified the problem. It has gone in again fo another part to be changed, but the mechanic says that he does not think it will resolve the issue and has since noticed it on nearly every 2012 onwards ford model that he drives.
He states that if as he thinks this does not resolve the problem then, he will have to submit a service report to fords who will only investigate a potential design flaw if enough people raise the problem with them.
Does this seem fair? I mean it's clearly a fault and I'm sure that the police would not accept a faulty indicator if I was pulled over for not having them on, when in fact it was the car that had switched it of!
I really don't know what to do, this along with the continued bodywork issues the car is suffering with, I am at my wits end.
Anyone else having this issue and if so what was done or changed to stop it from occurring.
Thanks
