NHTSA Complaint #10689584 — 2012 FORD FOCUS

WHILE THE TRANSMISSION DOES ACT DIFFERENT THAN A NORMAL AUTOMATIC I'VE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS UNTIL NOW I WAS DRIVING 35 MPH AND SUDDENLY THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD ANY MORE THE ENGINE WOULD JUST HITS HIGH RPMS WHICH IS FUNNY CAUSE THIS CAR HAS NEVER HIT A HIGH RPM WHILE NOT IN GEAR IT HAS A REV LIMITER ANYWAY I COASTED TO A STOP I TRIED TO USE THE SPORT OPTION TO GET THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT NOPE SO I TURN THE CAR OFF NEVER TO START AGAIN THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR ON DASH SAID CAR WAS IN DRIVE EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFTER WAS IN PARK MY MAIN CONCERN HERE IS WITH ALL OF THE COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS TRANSMISSION AND IT WOULD TAKE ME WEEKS TO READ THEM ALL WHY HAS THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. HAS NOT ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS TRANSMISSION THAT IS STILL BEING PUT IN NEW CARS TODAY AND HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AND CAN CAUSE A VERY REAL SAFETY CONCERN WHY IS IT THAT PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE AND THE COMPANY IS HELD RESPONSIBLE. *TR
