When does the New Ford Fiesta come out?

Ford Fiesta keeps cutting out and all the dash lights come on?

  • I have a 1996 Ford Fiesta LX 1.3. The car cuts out often when slowing down at lights ect and occasionally the fuel gauge drops all the way down, the fog lights and dash lights come on and the car is really jumpy and shuddery to drive. When this happens with the headlights on the idle is very jumpy and will eventually cut out, however when i turn the headlights off the idle quality improves. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

  • Answer:
