Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE SINCE OCTOBER OF 2017, AND HAVE ALREADY HAD TO GET THE CLUTCH REPLACED ONCE. THIS IS THE SELECT SHIFT AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND EVEN THOUGH FORD HAS REPLACED THE CLUTCH ONCE ALREADY, I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH WHAT SEEMS LIKE THE CLUTCH SLIPPING WHICH IS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SHUDDER/JERK WHEN GOING FROM FIRST TO SECOND (ACCELERATING). IT HAS STARTED OCCURRING MORE OFTEN THAN NOT AND I HAVE TAKEN THEN VEHICLE BACK INTO TO FORD MANY TIMES FOR THEM TO JUST TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY VEHICLE, AND THE SLIPPING IS 'NORMAL' FOR THIS TRANSMISSION. I DRIVE THIS CAR ON A DAILY BASIS TO AND FROM WORK AND WHAT IT IS DOING DOES NOT SEEM NORMAL. YOU CAN ALSO HEAR IT CLUNK WHEN DECELERATING WHEN APPROACHING INTERSECTIONS.
