Consumer Description

1. MY 2012 FORD FOCUS IS STALLING OUT AND REVVING UP AT HIGH RPMS THEN STALLING OUT FOR THE LAST 4 MONTHS. 2. THIS IS THE FOURTH OCCURRENCE FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS. 3 TIMES IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS. 3. THE FIRST TWO TIMES, FORD COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND RELATED TO DRIVING AT HIGH RPMS OR SPINNING ON GRAVEL WHICH NEVER OCCURRED. I ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD REV AT HIGH RPMS BUT NOT GO ANYWHERE THEN STALL, NOT ON A GRAVEL ROAD BUT A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING 55-60 MPH. TWICE THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED. THE OTHER TIMES I COULD DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT 30MPH BUT IT WOULD CONTINUOUSLY STALL OUT. THE THIRD TIME THEY REPLACED THE COMPUTER WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE FOURTH TIME OCCURRED AND MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR A OVER A WEEK AND THEY STILL CANNOT FIGURE WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. MY VEHICLE HAS 41,000 MILES AND STILL COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN. FORD IS REFUSING TO BUY THE VEHICLE BACK UNDER STATE LEMON LAWS AND NOT GIVING ME AN OFFER FOR DIMINISHED VALUE FOR THE HIT I AM GOING TO TAKE ON THE TRADE IN ONCE I HOPEFULLY GET THE VEHICLE BACK OPERATIONAL. *TR
