NHTSA Complaint #11281894 — 2012 FORD FOCUS

FORD DEALERSHIP STATES "CLUTCH SHUDDER PROBLEM" OCCURRING, BUT THERES A SERVICE CALL ON IT ONLY TO INFORM ME THAT THE WARRANTY HAS RUN OUT AND THE EXTENSION ON THE REPAIRS OF THIS HAVE EXPIRED. I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF THIS REPAIR, HAD MY SERVICES COMPLETED. WHEN INQUIRING TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP THAT SERVICED THE TRANSMISSION FOR $249 LAST MARCH,AS WELL AS FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONS DEPT, I WAS INFORMED BY BOTH THAT UNLESS SOMEONE COMES IN WITH THIS COMPLAINT THEY DO NOT REPAIR IT. LUCKY ME IT HAS LASTED 9 MONTHS PAST THE "SERVICE CALL EXTENSION DATE", 9 MONTHS PAST THE "MANUFACTURER WARRANTY". THIS I ALSO BELIEVE IS THE RESULT OF THE GAS VALVE NOT MALFUNCTIONING SINCE PRIOR TO THE RECALL FOR THAT-BACK IN 2015 I REPORTED THIS AND IN 2016 PRIOR TO THE SERVICE CALL FOR THE TCM I HAD IT SERVICED AS WELL! NOW THEY ARE ACTING AS IF THEY DID NOT KNOW THE DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION WAS FAULTY AND ARE REFUSING TO REPAIR THEIR FAULTY PARTS! I'M A NURSE FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, I JUST WANT TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK IN THE VEHICLE I PAY FOR (7 PAYMENTS REMAINING BY THE WAY)!! MAKE THEM FIX THEIR MISTAKE! THE GAS VALVE STALLING THE CAR PROBABLY RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS NOW HAVING IT HAD STALLED THE CARS BEFORE THEY OWNED THAT PROBLEM!! FOR THE RECORD THERE WERE FAR LESS MILES ON MY CAR WHEN THEY HAD TO REPAIR THE TCM!
