Heleas03 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Hello, As the title suggests, I would like to buy a 2015 1.5 Petrol Mondeo (EU), and I would like to ask your help about any common issues or what to look for before buying a 2015 Mondeo. Currently I have a 2006 Ford Focus 1.4 hatchback. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 The 2015 Mondeo is currently facing a big problem with the bolts that hold the power steering motor, they are breaking and you are left with a £1800 bill to fix it. Ford issued a recall in the USA but not here, not yet anyway. I am admin on the most active UK Mk5 Mondeo Facebook page, this and many more things are discussed. If you join and ask the same question there then you will get lots of information. https://www.facebook.com/groups/693277794183606/?ref=share 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heleas03 Posted January 22, 2020 Author Share Posted January 22, 2020 Thank you, reading about it just now.. It seems like a huge issue.. But some state that it have been fixed from 2015/03 till present vehicles. Is it true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Potentially, we are still trying to get more data together so I wouldn't like to say for certain. I'm doubtful that it's as early as that. Also don't forget it's not date of registration, it's the date it came off the production line. I've seen '65 plates with failing bolts. If you are buying from a dealer then get them to change the bolts before you buy it, or at least get them to inspect them and let you know if they are aluminium or steel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Well I don't know who you are on the group (at least yet haha), so can't deny nor confirm lol. But most likely someone else, the closest I've come to having a go at someone (which really wasn't having a go) was for nonchalantly claiming that the 6F35 gearbox didn't need any oil changes for it's life time. But good to have you on there as I'd say you're probably one of the few people on there with actual technical knowledge, going by your posts in this forum 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
