Hi,
My 1st post here. I live in the southern USA, 71yo, retired, not that much of a Ford fan, but I do really like the looks of the Flex - ever since their introduction, I have found the design to be eye-catching - to me, anyway.
I know nothing about these cars, though I'm wanting to learn. What years to stay away from, what sort of problems with the various powertrains, etc. I DO NOT work on my own cars any longer, so anything needing to be done will have to be done by someone else.
I keep seeing the term "Ecoboost". I browse internet ads for these vehicles, and this term pops up quite a bit. I know nothing about trim levels for these, but I tend to like top of the line cars.
I would enjoy hearing comments about which years to avoid, which powertrains are problematic. What years have engine issues, what years have transmission issues, wiring issues, A/C issues. etc.
Thanks in advance for all comments. Looking forward to hearing from you.
