Consumer Description
I AM MAKING A COMPLAINT THAT MY 2016 FORD FOCUS WITH A INSTALLED AUTOMATIC DUAL-CLUTCH POWER-SHIFT TRANSMISSION. I AM EXPERIENCING SEVERE HESITATIONS WHEN I ACCELERATE. I AM EXPERIENCING A JERKY CAR MOVEMENT, AS I AM DRIVING, THIS HAVING G THE FEELING THAT I COULD LOSE CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. THE DRIVING CONDITIONS ARE THE WORST IN NORMAL CITY DRIVING CONDITIONS, AS THE TRANSMISSION IS WORKING MORE THAN ON A INTERSTATE OR FREEWAY. MOST OF MY DIVING IS IN THE CITY. I HAVE TAKE IT TO LOCAL AUTHORIZED FORD DEALERSHIPS AND THEY SAY THERE IS NO RECALL, FIX, AND THAT IT WILL BE $289 TO GIVE A DIAGNOSIS. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT WAS FILED, BUT IS TOO LATE TO JOIN. I AM FILING MY COMPLAINT AGAINST HOW FORD IS NOT HELPING TO SOLVE A KNOWN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE, WITHOUT MAJOR COSTS. IVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO AN ESTABLISHED AUTO TRANSMISSION BUSINESS AND THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WILL NEED A FULL TRANSMISSION REBUILD OR REPLACEMENT. THE 'CHECK ENGINE' LIGHT IS ON AND THE DIAGNOSIS CODE IS INDICATING 'TRANSMISSION ISSUE' ONLY. PHOTOS ARE ATTACHED.
