Consumer Description
2012 HATCHBACK FORD FOCUS AUTOMATIC THE VEHICLE STALLS WHENEVER ACCELERATED. IT FEELS AS IF THE COMPUTER SENDS THE SIGNAL TO MAINTAIN THE SPEED OR SPEED UP BUT THE TRANSMISSION CAN NOT KEEP UP WITH IT, THEREFORE IT STALLS. IT DOES IT WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET AND ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SPEED DOES NOT RELATE TO WHEN IT OCCURS. IN ORDER WORDS, IF I AM DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED FOR A LAPSE OF TIME IT WILL STILL STALL AND IF I NEED TO SPEED UP, FOR EXAMPLE WHEN MAKING A TURN ONTO A STREET IT WILL STALL OR WHEN MAKING A LANE CHANGE.
