Is the transmission reliable in this car… Thinking about buying one.
This site tracks such things…
Looks like the biggest single complaint is the transmission;
Now is take time for a transmission to fail and it also takes time for people to complaint about any car so… Look at 2015 data, then 2014 data, then 2013 data… transmission problems are the highest complaint in ALL of them.
My conclusion is that the transmission is not reliable in this car.
I have a 2018 Ford Fiesta bought new . The sticker was 17300.00 and we paid a lot less then that. My understanding is that the transmission problem were most likely solved on the 2017 year and on. As used vehicle prices are ridiculous right now I say look at new with full warranty and better loan rates .
