NHTSA Complaint #10617138 — 2013 FORD FOCUS

SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IS BEEN HAVING A LOT OF ISSUES WITH CHANGING GEARS,I CALLED AND FORD SAID IT WAS NORMAL.BUT I HAD AN INCIDENT IT WAS VERY SCARY EVERY TIME YOU ARE IN TRAFFIC AND THE CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP, IF YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE THE CAR IT GOES HARD AND FAST I ALMOST CRASHED THE PERSON RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.THE OTHER INCIDENT I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND HAD THE CAR ON REVERSE AND THE CAR ACTUALLY WENT FORWARD IT WAS VERY SCARY I WENT ONLY AND SEE MANY CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT SIMILAR ISSUES I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARE TAKING SO LONG TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS MODELS IS VERY DANGEROUS THEY NEED TO AVOID ANY FURTHER INCIDENTS I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN DANGER TO FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD BE AVOIDED. I REALLY PRAY AND HOPE THAT THEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT NOW THESE CARS NEED TO BE OFF THE STREET NOW. *JS
