[Fiestaman]

Have to agree with mik. The dealers are facing vehicles that are radically more complex than they were 20 years ago and the number of possible problems has increased exponentially. To my mind the Fiesta is needlessly too complex. I want a small good handling, economical car but what I have is voice recognition, electric windows, electronic computer "brain", and all sorts of other electronics that can give problems. I think Ford needs to "dumb down " Fiestas and aim to give a simple and practical car for everyday use -and reduce the price by $3,000 for all the "junk" they could strip out of it.
I can honestly say that over the last seven years I have had more problems with cars than in the previous 20 years - most of it related to electronic problems.
