NHTSA Complaint #11317051 — 2014 FORD FOCUS

AT AROUND 20K THE CAR STARTED JUMPING AND SHUDDERING FROM A STOP AND WOULD ALSO ACCELERATE AND THE RPM'S WOULD INCREASE ON ITS OWN WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, VERY SCARY. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER.I TOOK IT BACK AT AROUND 40K AND THEY INSTALLED THE NEW TRANSMISSION, SO THEY SAY. I TOOK IT BACK AT JUST OVER 60K (AROUND 60,500) AND THEY SAID IT WAS A BAD TRANSMISSION AND IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WOULD COST AROUND $1,600 TO $1,800. THEY GAVE ME THE RUNAROUND AND I LEFT NEVER WANTING TO DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN. THE PROBLEM HAS INCREASED IN FREQUENCY TO THE POINT OF INSECURITY. MY ODOMETER IS AT ABOUT 118000. I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT THEN AND I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT NOW. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO? I'M AT WITS END.
