Consumer Description

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOPPED POSITIONS LIKE WAITING TO TURN, THE CAR WILL HESITATE BADLY WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR AND WILL NOT TAKE OFF VERY FAST. THIS OCCURS ON LEVEL AS WELL AS UNLEVEL GROUND. WE HAVE HAD THE CLUTCH REPLACED 3 TIMES WITHIN 2 YEARS AND CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES. THIS OCCURS WHEN IN DRIVE WHEN TURNING ALL THE TIME. IT ALSO OCCCCURS WHEN WE ARE TRYING TO SPEED UP TO PASS ANOTHER CAR OR GET AHEAD OF ONE. WHEN THE CAR IS ON AN ANGLE THE FUEL GAUGE WILL READ UP TO 30 MILES ON THE TANK BUT WILL STOP AS THE FUEL SENSOR DOES NOT SHOW THE CAR HAS GAS IN IT. WE HAVE HAD THE FUEL GAUGE CHANGED 2 TIMES IN A 2013 FORD FOCUS. THIS OCCURS WHEN PARKING THE CAR IN OUR DRIVEWAY. THIS OCCURS EVERY DAT THAT WE HAVE HAD THE CAR.
