Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL. MY TRANSMISSION AS ALWAYS BEEN FUNNY AND TWO DAYS AGO MY CAR STARTED TO ROLL BACK EVEN WHEN I WAS IN POSITION D. THEN THE TRANSMISSION STARTED OVERHEATING AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO AAMCO TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG AND THE MAN SAID THEY GET 2014 AND 2015 FOCUS CARS OFTEN. THE PARTS THEY NEED TO REPLACE ARE THE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY, SLAVE CYLINDER, AND TWO MECHANICAL ACTUATORS. ALONG WITH PRESSURE PLATE. I THINK THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON AND SOMEONE SHOULD KNOW. THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE MY TRANSMISSION WOULD OVERHEAT AND I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER SOMEWHERE REAL QUICK TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND LET IT COOL DOWN. THEN MY CAR WOULD BE HARD TO START AFTER THAT. I HAD TO DO THAT A FEW TIMES BEFORE I MADE IT TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP THAT DAY.
