Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THIS CAR AS A PRIVATE SALE FOR $4,000 DOLLARS, I HAD THE CAR LESS THAN A YEAR AND SUDDENLY THE CAR STOPPED ON THE HIGHWAY. COME TO FIND OUT THE TRANSMISSION IS NO GOOD. DOING SOME PRIOR RESEARCH BEFORE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2011 FORD FOCUS AND FIESTAS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION BEING NO GOOD. PRIOR BEFORE THE CAR STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER I WAS DEALING WITH A LOT OF HESITATION THE CAR SHUTTING OFF IN SLOW DOWN TRAFFIC AND BUCKING. I ALSO DID CAR FAX AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS INDEED A RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION. ALSO FINDING OUT RECENTLY THAT THE LATCHES FOR THE DOOR WAS RECALLED AND AS WELL AS THE AIR BAGS THAT HASN'T BEEN FIXED.
