NHTSA Complaint #11079735 — 2014 FORD FOCUS

WHILE UNDER WARRANTY I WAS DRIVING AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER ON THE EXPRESSWAY. THIS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES DURING THE WARRANTY AND 6 TIMES SINCE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN AND I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE STALLED FOURS TIMES AND THREE OTHER TIMES IT ALMOST STALLED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND ONLY ONCE THEY SAID THEY FOUND A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THEY REPLACED SOME SMALL PART BUT IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. ONE OF THE TIMES IT STALLED I TOOK A PICTURE OF THE MESSAGE ON THE DASH BOARD. IT SAID: ENGINE FAILURE SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. I SHOWED THAT PHOTO TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND MECHANIC AT FORD. BOTH OF THEM SAID THE SAME THING: "I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE". MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD ABOUT THE CAR YOU BOUGHT FROM THEM.ALSO, THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WON'T OPEN MOST OF THE TIME ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. I HAVE TO PULL THE HANDLE TWO OR THREE TIMES BEFORE THE DOOR WILL OPEN. FOR REPLACED SOME PART ON THE DOORS BECAUSE OF A RECALL BUT THAT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. IT STILL DOES IT. THIS POSTING ASKS YOU TO SPECIFY THE DATE OF OCCURRENCE. IT HAS HAPPENED SO REGULARLY NOW THERE ARE TOO MANY DATES TO LIST. I LSTED MAY OF 2014 WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. FROM THEN ON IT HAS HAD PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM.
