Ford Fiesta ST

 

1st registered 27th August 2008.

Owned by me since March 2009. Garaged every night.

46,400 miles.

Comprehensive ownership record including all MOT’s.

4 new tyres just fitted.

MOT due April.

 

This car is now 14 years old and because I have owned it so long I am aware of a few “issues”. They are :-

 

The Air conditioning stopped working in 2014.

I paid for it to be re-gassed but it soon stopped working again. It needs a new compressor.

 

A very slight oil leek developed about 12 years ago at the bottom of the engine.

The local Ford main dealer attempted a cure but this was unsuccessful. It is very small and I have lived with it ever since.

 

A slight dent is present on the drivers side back wheel arch. The paint work was not damaged so have lived with it.

 

4 years ago I started getting occasional bogus “passenger door open” warnings. During lockdown I stripped the door and bypassed this sensor. Once the door was all refitted the central locking on that door stopped working.
