Consumer Description
I HAVE A 2014 FORD FOCUS THAT IS CURRENTLY HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A FORD DEALERSHIP HOPING IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THAT THEY WOULD FIX IT. THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY SINCE IT WAS BUILT IN NOVEMBER OF 2013 AND THAT 14M01 ONLY APPLIES TO THOSE THAT HAVE CARS BUILT BEFORE JULY 3, 2013. MY ISSUE WITH THAT IS THAT FORD NOTED THAT "VEHICLES HAVING A BUILD DATE OF JUNE 6, 2013 OR LATER HAVE IMPROVED TRANSMISSION INPUT SHAFT SEALS THAT ARE NOT LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE LEAKS." OBVIOUSLY THEIR "IMPROVED TRANSMISSION INPUT SHAFT SEALS" ARE NOT IMPROVED SINCE MY CAR WITH 60,000 UN ABUSED MILES HAS ENCOUNTERED TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SEE WHAT MY LEGAL OPTIONS ARE WITH THIS LAWSUIT AS I DON'T THINK ITS RIGHT MY VEHICLE IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THIS LAWSUIT. I BELIEVE THAT FORD NEVER IMPROVED THEIR INPUT SHAFT SEALS SINCE I ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS RECALLED.
