Consumer Description

TRANSMISSION IS JERKY, DIFFICULT/SLOW TO ACCELERATE MAKING FOR UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE CAR HAS OTHER IS ISSUES BUT THIS IS THE WORST. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND FAILS TO ACCELERATE WITH POWER OR SPEED WHEN PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP, CHANGING LANES, GETTING ONTO A FREEWAY, OR DURING TYPICAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. FORD MAKES EXCUSES - FIRST IT WAS THE COMPUTER, NOW IT IS THE CLUTCH. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE I LEASED IT AS A BRAND NEW CAR DEC. 2014.
