This car has a lot of engine noise. Ford needs to bring a Lexus into engineering dept and listen to how quiet the motor is, inside cabin and out. Also way too many squeaks from front suspension. Would not and have not recommended this car. |

I had to impress upon the dealer that I was very unhappy with the quality of the seats/material. Replaced entire seat bottom. |
