NHTSA Complaint #10592386 — 2012 FORD FOCUS

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN DECEMBER OF 2012 AND BY MAY OF 2013, THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP FOR MONTHS. THE MOST SUBSTANTIAL ISSUE WAS AN ISSUE WITH SPEED CONTROL IN THE CAR WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. AT ABOUT 20 MILES AN HOUR THE CAR WOULD HAVE DIFFICULTY GOING UP TO 40MPH, BUT WOULD THEN JERK UP TO HIGHER SPEEDS AFTERWARD. THE CLUTCH SYSTEM WAS REPLACED IN THE CAR ON MAY 24, 2013 AND SEEMED TO BE FINE, BUT I STILL FILED A CLAIM WITH THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY. LAST WEEK ON MAY 14, 2014 THE BEGAN TO HAVE THE SAME TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I CONTACTED FORD AGAIN AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT IN, AS IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE 12 MONTHS/12000 MILES EXTENDED PARTS WARRANTY. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY BACK IN THE SHOP AND I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS ISSUE WILL NOT BE RESOLVED. I'M ALSO CONCERNED THAT THERE WAS ALREADY A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE IN 2012 FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND LITTLE IS BEING DONE NOW TO RECTIFY THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. *JS
