Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had several problems with my car. it shakes and vibrates really bad. the first time it was taken to the ford dealership, i was told that it was a normal characterisic of the motor. well, it was getting worse so i took it to another ford dealership and was told that the motor mounts needed replaced. i had all of those replaced. it still shakes and vibrates a lot. it only has 32,000 miles on it. it shakes so much that my hood becomes loose and has to be tightned up. it wouldn't go out of park either so that had to be fixed. now, it won't start. it's at the ford dealership yet a third time because it will only start if it's jump started. if you try to use the air conditioner, everything electrical in the car goes haywire. they think it's an electrical problem now. please look into this car as it only had 15 miles on it when i bought and it ran smoothly. now it only has 32,000 miles on it but it shakes and vibrates like it has over 100,000 miles on it.
