Having to buy extra security systems and devices to supplement a flawed and inadequate OEM system is something I expected to do in the 1980's on a second hand car - not 2015 on a brand new car

Fiesta ST3. Cars for a lot of people are their pride and joy. Having such a security flaw is sickening to know and ruins the enjoyment you should get from ownership. All we can ask is that this is addressed in some way.

Everyone knows about this OBD problem. If Ford doesn't sort it out my next car will NOT be a Ford.

As much as this effects the ST's, it's also a flaw in the whole range for fiestas and focuses etc. It's on the rise and something needs to be done!

Can't believe in this day and age there is such a simple method for stealing a car - glad I've got a Disklok

It's a well known about problem. Ford you make plenty of money from your mostly loyal buyer's, so time to sort the problem out for them.

Ford please sort this problem out as you have a massive fan base who pay thousands for your cars, so the least we expect is good security measures.

Come on FORD get this sorted out, this is clearly a design fault with your system so you need to take responsibility and help your loyal customers out
