2012 FORD FOCUS Vehicle Speed Control Problems

the car runs without power when shifted to drive gear. It is sluggish trying to speed up. Took to Ford Dealers on a recall with that is suppose to take care of it..nothing seems to have changed. I am not sure anything was done. trans makes a rough sound starting..

On highway with my 18 month old and as a cat merged on ramp I signaled and moved to left lane. I had to move and quickly so that another fast car would not hit me in the rear end where my baby was seated in car seat. In only the 3 seconds I had to make decision which hit would be better for me and my child, my car stuck in the lower gears and I could not speed up to move out of way or pass vehicle parallel my car was losing speed rather than gaining when I pushed in gas to floor

Vehicle won’t start on multiple occasions. Vehicle struggles to turn on and lag to turn off. Vehicle struggles to change gears to speed up

My 2012 Ford SE stalls out between First, second and third gear whenever I am accelerating to 40mph. The Transmission error continues to pop up after driving for a long period of time. Whenever driving 50 mph to 70 mph as soon as I release the gas pedal, the car goes into neutral stall out & whenever I press down on the gas pedal nothing happens and I have to pull over & Turn the car off and turn it back on to reset the transmission computer. If I don’t do that and I press the gas pedal again, the car would jerk and I have to pull over immediately and the car off. I cannot press full on the gas pedal because the car would not accelerate at full speed. Whenever I put gas in the car, it won’t start right away. It would jerk and choke just to...

The transmission module, and Transmission. While on freeway with my family car shut off while driving. Yes , Yes , No there were no warning signs until after the jerking and shaking started after 39 days then the engine light came on. After that a that the sign said transmission over heating pull over and let car cool down. what was most scary is that it shut off while driving.

Only 67867 miles and the transmision is not working . I only drive short distances. Allwise have a problem. Since I buy the car. I never complain because I am very busy. But. know the car stop complete

Transmission over heating stop safely light comes on transmission hot stop wait 5 second I do the restart of the transmission and it keeps doing it

TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE I called for and they now claim my vechile cant be covered because it's out of this stated warranty by a few months. We hThe car has been in for service regarding the transmission on this car multiple times. We have broguht in for service as well as call for many years, over and over again, we've been told there is nothing wrong with the car. even though it has a warning for tranmission malfunction service now. ave been trying to get this resolved since my dad bought the car in 2012! weve been turned away. I need to have this fixed.

-Loss of power from the pedal, not able to accelerate from a stop. RPM rides high until it shifts. "Transmission Malfunction. Service Now" notice. -Unaffected by other traffic but not able to properly maneuver traffic. -Problem has re-occurred but not taken to a service center. -No inspection conducted yet. - No warning lamps appeared until issue occurred a few times.

Transmission has spontaneously went from overheating to not while driving, gears are slipping have speed and when it goes to shift all power lost, then it kicks back in. It was coded with transmission control module failure. The module and both actuators have been replaced now car will not relearn shifting patterns. Spontaneous overheating transmission messages just when car is turned on. Transmission control module has been programmed by dealership but all problems continue to exsist.

I HAD JUST PURCHASED FORD FOCUS USED. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME, THAT MY CAUSE RECALL DOES NOT STAND. BECAUSE IT EXCEEDED OVER 100,000 MILES. THEY SAID IT OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY TOLD ME TO PAY $3,400 ESTIMATION TO FIX THE CAR. I TOLD THEM RECALL DON'T EXPIRE. ALSO THAT FORD MANUFACTURES TELL ME UP TO 2012-2017 HAVE RECALLS ON TRANSMISSIONS ISSUES. I'M JUST UPSET THEY DON'T HOLD UP TO THERE STANDARDS WITH FORD AND I LOVE FORD MOTORS. THEY CAR STALLS AND WON'T GO INTO GEAR. IT HAS DIFFICULTY RESPONDING TO GEARS. I BOUGHT IT USED ABS NOTICE THE PROBLEMS. SO I HAULED IT IN TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP.

WHILE ACCELERATING OUT OF A PARKING LOT TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, ACCELERATING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS, OR TAKING A RIGHT ON RED, THE CAR WILL START TO ACCELERATE AND THEN SUDDENLY AS IT TRY'S TO DOWNSHIFT, IT ACTS AS IF ITS STUCK IN NEUTRAL, AND WONT ACCELERATE AT ALL. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT BY OTHER MOVING VEHICLES. SOME GOING 50 MPH HAVE HAD TO SLAM THEIR BRAKES ON BECAUSE I WASN'T ABLE TO FINISH ACCELERATING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. WHEN IT ISN'T DOING THAT, IT HAS JERKY/ ROUGH/ DOWNSHIFTS. IT ALSO VIBRATES WHEN I TRY TO SPEED UP AND SOMETIMES HAS A HESITATION AND THEN WILL KICK IN TO GEAR. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET HIT BY OTHER CARS IN MOTION MULTIPLE TIMES . ESPECIALLY TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC! I BROUGHT IT TO THE...

AIR COMPRESSION INSIDE HAS ALWAYS HAD AIR COME INSIDE THE CAR NEVER BEING SEALED. CAR ENGINE OVERHEATS WHEN THEY USE THEIR OWN PRODUCTS. TIRE FAULT, THEY CLAIM THEY COULDN'T SEE IT, BUT IF THEY REALLY DO DIAGNOSTIC TEST AS THEY CHARGE, THEN THEY SHOULD SEE ALL THE CODES THAT COME UP ON FAULTS. FORD KNOWS THEY HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE CARS BUT WHEN YOU TAKE CAR IN THEY CLAIM THEY CAN'T SEE IT, CLAIMS TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHICH THEY DON'T. ASK ABOUT THE RESULTS THEY CLAIM THERE IS NO DIAGNOSTIC TEST FOR IT, BUT YET THEY SCAM WITH WARRANTY AND YOURSELF. DOORS LEAK THEY SAY IT'S NORMAL BUT IT BRINGS MOLD INSIDE THE CAR. I START IT UP TO KEEP THE BATTERY GOING AND TO FIND SOMEONE HONEST WHO WON'T CHEAT YOU, CUZ THE DEALERSHIPS ARE SCAMMING FOLKS. SAME THING NUMEROUS TIMES SO I USED THE LAST...

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AROUND 6PM AND TAKING AN ON RAMP ONTO ANOTHER FREEWAY THE FORD FOCUS STALLED MID-DRIVE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ANYMORE OR SWITCH TO HIGHER GEARS WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS PRESSED. THE FORD IMMEDIATELY COULD NOT GO ANY FASTER THAN FIRST GEAR AND LUCKILY WE AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT BY PULLING TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY ON RAMP INTO THE VEGETATION SINCE THERE WAS NO SHOULDER. THERE WAS NO NOISE OR INDICATION THAT SOMETHING HAD HAPPENED TO THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE JUST STOPPED DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING AT AROUND 50MPH. IT WOULD NOT DRIVE BACKWARDS WHEN PUT INTO REVERSE AND WOULD REV UP TO EXTREMELY HIGH RPM WHEN THE DRIVER TRIED TO MOVE FORWARDS OR BACKWARDS. TOWED THE CAR TO THE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC THAT CAME BACK WITH 5 ERROR CODES INCLUDING:...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD FOCUS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE HESITATED WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CURRIE FORD LOCATED AT 2052 W MORTHLAND DR, VALPARAISO, IN 46385 TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000. *BF*JB

TAKI OFF FROM STOP LIGHT CAR IS STALLING, TURNED VEHICLE OFF AND WILL NOT START AGAIN

THE VEHICLE JUST SHUTS DOWN ON THE EXPRESSWAY WITHOUT WARNING WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN OVERHEATING WITHOUT ANY UNUSUAL ACCELERATION. IF DRIVING OVER 25 MPH THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE RADIO COMES ON WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE ENGINE LIGHT AND TRANSMISSION LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON WITHOUT WARNING.

HIGH RPMS DIED IN FLIGHT STALLING JERKING

WHEN FIRST ACCELERATING FROM 0 MPH, THE CAR WILL STRUGGLE TO SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. IT CONSTANTLY JUMPS AND JERKS BETWEEN 10-20 MPH. IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONE WHO IS NEWLY LEARNING HOW TO DRIVE A STICK SHIFT IS SHIFTING THE CAR. AS AN AUTOMATIC, IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH THE CAR. THE FIRST TIME THE COMPUTER HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED.

MY WIFE WAS TURNING AT A INTERSECTION AND THE CAR LOST POWER AND MOTOR JUST REVVED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. MY GRANDDAUGHTER WAS AND HER CAR SEAT IN BACK AND I WAS IN PASSENGER SEAT. WE ALMOST GOT T BONED BY ANOTHER CAR. LUCKILY WE WERE NOT. . AFTER LOOKING UP THIS HAPPENING TO OTHERS. HOW HAVE YOU NOT LET THE PUBLIC KNOW HOW UNSAFE THESE CARS ARE???

AFTER GOING TO MY FORD DEALER FOR THE LAST 2 RECALLS THAT EFFECT FUEL SYSTEM (LAST ONE WAS RECALL #19S22) MY CAR WAS OK FOR A FEW MONTHS. NOW THAT TEMPS HAVE DROPPED BELOW 50 THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING. WHEN ACCELERATING, THE CAR SHAKES AND SPUTTERS AS IT TRIES TO GO AND I GET ABOUT 18MPG INSTEAD OF MY USUAL 27MPG.

AS MANY OTHERS, NO, RATHER THOUSANDS OF OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THE FAULTY DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION OFFERED BY FORD FAILED AND ALMOST CAUSE AN ACCIDENT THAT COULD OF SERIOUSLY INJURED ME AND MY 2YR OLD DAUGHTER. WILL IT TAKE A DEATH FOR THE RECALL OF THIS FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT FORD KNEW ABOUT, BEFORE ANYTHING IS ACTUALLY DONE? HOW PADDED ARE THEY MAKING YOUR POCKETS? DO YOUR JOB AND SAVE LIVES.

WE PURCHASED A 2012 FOCUS FOR OUR 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AS HER FIRST CAR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AND THE CAR SHUDDERS AS YOU ACCELERATE LIKE ITS SHIFTING GEARS BUT IT'S A VERY AGGRESSIVE JERK. ONCE IT REACHES CERTAIN SPEED IT DRIVES SMOOTHLY BUT IF YOU STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AND ACCELERATE AGAIN IT DOES THE SAME THING. THE FAULT CODE FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STATES IT'S A CATALYTIC CONVERTER PROBLEM. I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND A RECALL FOR WHAT I THOUGHT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE (RECALL 18S32). TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED AND THEY RESET THE PCM BUT TECH TOLD ME THE GAS TANK "PASSED INSPECTION" SO NO FURTHER REPAIRS WERE NEEDED. HOWEVER, THE CAR STILL SHUDDERS AT ACCELERATION. I WAS TOLD I'D HAVE TO PAY $135 FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 FORD FOCUS. THE CONTACT TOOK HER VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER TO BE REPAIRED PER AN UNKNOWN RECALL. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THERE WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT WITH THE THROTTLE BODY AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED AND WOULD THEN VIOLENTLY ACCELERATE SUDDENLY. THE FAILURE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO A DITCH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 119,000.

THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS FROM A COMPETE STOP OR ACCELERATING THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE. MOST RECENTLY THE CAR WILL ACCELERATE WHEN DRIVING OR IN WORST CASES WHILE BRAKING. THE VEHICLE HAS RAMPED UP TO 6000RPM WHILE BRAKING GOING DOWN HILL. UPON CONTACTING LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, THEY STATED THEY HAD NOT HEARD OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE. ADVISED ME TO STOP DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND HAVE IT TOWED TO THEIR FACILITY.

WHEN I PUT MY GEAR IN REVERSE, SOMETIMES MY CAR JERKS AND REVERSE FASTER THAN IT SHOULD OR OTHER TIMES THE CAR WOULD IDLE, I WOULD SEE THE RPM GOING UP AND HEAR THE RPM BUT THE CAR DOESNT MOVE. I'D HAVE TO HIT BRAKE AND TRY TO REVERSE AGAIN. WHEN I COME TO A STOP AND TRY TO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE EITHER JERKS OR JUST TAKES OFF. THE PROBLEM ALMOST HAPPENS EVERY TIME. OR WHEN I AM SLOWING DOWN, THE CAR WOULD JERK OR SHUDDER. WHENEVER I TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY JUST TELL ME THE SHUDDER/JERKS ARE IN THEIR NORMAL RANGE READING AND BASICALLY TELLS ME THAT IS NORMAL FOR THE VEHICLE TO DO. ALL THE SHUDDERING, JERKING, AND BEING HESITANT HAPPENS MOSTLY STARTING FROM A STATIONARY POSITION, LIKE AT A RED LIGHT OR A STOP SIGN. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVERY SINCE I BOUGHT THE...

THE CAR VIBRATED VIGOROUSLY WHEN ACCELERATES FROM A COMPLETE STOP, FOLLOWED BY SUDDEN ACCELERATIONS WHEN SWITCHING GEARS. THE CAR HAD ONLY 28K MILES ON IT WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM FORD OF KIRKLAND IN WASHINGTON STATE IN 2016, AND NOTICED DRIVING ISSUES THE DAY I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT. THIS VEHICLE HAS A DPS6 TRANSMISSION AND IT CONSTANTLY JERKS, SHUDDERS AND SLIPS OUT OF GEAR WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. IT OFTEN FAILS TO ACCELERATE OR ACCELERATES SUDDENLY AND OUT OF CONTROL, ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING UPHILL. IT ALSO FREQUENTLY OVERHEATS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IDLING, DESPITE HAVING WORK DONE ON IT SEVERAL TIMES THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME, AND THE DPS6 IS NOT AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AT ALL. I ALSO FREQUENTLY HAVE ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL AND RADIO SYSTEM. THE CLOCK CHANGES RANDOMLY AND THE AUDIO SWITCHES UNEXPECTEDLY TO RADIO STATIONS FROM BLUE TOOTH WHILE DRIVING AND THEN FAILS TO SWITCH BACK TO ANY BLUE TOOTH DEVICE, SOMETIMES FOR...

I'VE EXPERIENCED BOTH HESITATION AND LURCHING FORWARD WITH THIS VEHICLE WHEN ACCELERATING AND TRAVELING AT LOW SPEEDS (5-15 MILES PER HOUR) THIS IS SCARY WHEN MERGING ONTO FOUR LANE OR EVEN WHEN CAUGHT IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON-GOING PROBLEM EVER SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW. THE CLUTCH HAS BEEN REPLACED ONCE OR TWICE, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES.

THE TRANSMISSION IS FAILING CAUSING MY CAR TO OVERHEAT, SLOW DOWN, SLIPPAGE ENGINE REVS BUT VEHICLE DOES NOT ACCELERATE....CAR VIBRATES AND SHAKES.

I WAS DRIVING SOUTHBOUND IN THE LEFT LANE ON I-495 FROM MD INTO VA, ABOUT TO GET TO THE EZ PASS CAMERA. I SELDOM USE THE PASS, THEREFORE IT IS NOT AFFIXED TO THE WINDSHIELD. I HAD PLACED IT ON THE DASHBOARD IN ANTICIPATION OF THE UPCOMING CAMERA. TRAFFIC WAS ALTERNATELY SLOWING DOWN AND SPEEDING UP TO APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. THE DRIVER AHEAD OF ME SUDDENLY SLOWED NEARLY TO A STOP, SO I PRESSED MY BRAKES, WHICH CAUSED THE EZ PASS TO SLIDE ACROSS THE DASHBOARD AND UP AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD. UNABLE TO REACH IT WITH MY SEATBELT ON, AND BECAUSE THE CAR WAS BARELY MOVING, I UNFASTENED THE SEAT BELT TO RETRIEVE THE PASS. AT THE SAME TIME THE DRIVER AHEAD OF ME SLIGHTLY INCREASED HER SPEED, THEN SUDDENLY SLOWED AGAIN, WHICH I DID, TOO. HOWEVER, THIS TIME I HAD TO PUNCH THE BRAKE. IT WENT STRAIGHT TO THE...

MY FOCUS HAS HAD NUMEROUS TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. MY CAR WOULD RANDOMLY NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR AND WOULD LEAVE STRANDED. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR WOULD RANDOMLY NOT SHIFT GEARS, ALLOWING ME TO GO A MAX OF 10 MPH WITH MY CHILDREN IN MY CAR. MANY TIMES MY CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. SOMETIMES WHEN IT DID START, I COULD NOT EVEN TURN MY WHEEL. I HAD THE COMPUTER CHIP RESET AND WITHIN 4 MONTHS MY CAR BECAME INOPERABLE. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THEY SAID MULTIPLE SERVICE BULLETINS WERE FOUND FOR MY TRANSMISSION THAT CAME BACK IN THE DIAGNOSTICS AND TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP. WHEN I WENT THERE I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE MINIMUM $2K TO GET THE INTERNAL CLUTCH FIXED, IF THAT WAS THE ISSUE, UPWARDS OF $5K FOR THE OTHER TRANSMISSION...

CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE INCLUDING SHUDDERING OVERHEATING LACK OF POWER JERKING MOTIONS AND CONSTANT REPLACEMENT. FROM 2013 TO CURRENT DATE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY IN A 55MPH SPEEDZONE, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS, AND THEN MY CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 35 MPH. AFTER TAKING IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SIMPLY SAID I WAS "DRIVING THE CAR INCORRECTLY" AND PERFORMED SOME KIND OF SOFTWARE REBOOT. NOW, WHEN TRAVELING AROUND TOWN, MY CAR (WHICH IS AN AUTOMATIC) SPUTTERS WHEN CHANGING GEARS AFTER IT IS STOPPED LIKE AT A STOP SIGN, RED LIGHT, OR IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, OR GOING UP STEEPER HILLS. IT ACTS LIKE IT IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHEN A GEAR IS MISSED OR ITS BEING CHOKED.

I HAVE A 2012 FORD FOCUS TITANIUM HATCHBACK. I TOOK MY CAR INTO BOB TOMES FORD FOR A SHUTTERING PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD TO WAIT AND SEE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR. MONTHS LATER I HAD THE TCM REPLACE AND NOW MY CLUTCH IS OUT. THESE WERE ALL ISSUES AT THE TIME I ORIGINALLY BROUGHT MY CAR INTO FORD. AFTER THE TCM WAS REPLACE I TRIED TO PICK UP MY CAR FROM BOB TOMES FORD SERVICE CENTER AND THE SERVICE TEAM COULD NOT START MY CAR OR GET IT IN GEAR( YET SOMEHOW THEY "TEST DROVE" IT). MY CAR HAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME, MY TRANSMISSION IS OVERHEATING AND ASKING ME TO PULL OVER AND WAIT 5 MINUETS. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS I AM A MOTHER AND HAVE UP TO 3 CHILDREN WITH ME AT ONE TIME. I CAN NOT...

I OWN A 2012 FORD FOCUS SE THAT CONTINUES TO DISPLAY ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THIS INCLUDES DELAYED ACCELERATION, JERKING, AND BUCKING. WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE FAILED RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE UNABLE TO SHIFT PROPERLY. THIS ENDANGERED BOTH MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF THE OTHER PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. MY FORD FOCUS HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE MULTIPLE TIMES AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS TO INCLUDE THE DEALERSHIP PURCHASED FROM. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED BOTH UNDER THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND STILL DISPLAYS ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I AM HAVING A HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING WHY THERE IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IF EVEN AFTER I CONTINUE TO EXPLAIN WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE VEHICLE THE DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS MY SAFETY AND WHAT FORD MOTOR COMPANY PLANS TO DO....

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000.

CAR HAS 60000 MILES AND HAS EXACT SAME ISSUES AS EVERYONE ELSE IS POSTING. SHUTTERING, SLOW STARTS, LOSS OF POWER ON HIGHWAYS! HOW IS THIS NOT ON A RECALL LIST BY NOW OR DO WE WAIT FOR FATALITIES? THESE CARS ARE UNSAFE FOR THE ROADS! I JUST HAD CLUTCH REPLACED AND I AM EVEN SCARED TO GET THE DANG CAR BACK AND DRIVE IT. RIDICULOUS SOMETHING ISNT BEING DONE BY FORD. WONT BE BUYING THEM ANYMORE UNLESS WE GET SOME HELP.

TAKATA RECALL TRANSMISSION LIGHT COME ON LOSE REVERSE AN DRIVE CLUTCH STICK ITS AN AUTO

LAST MONTH CHECK ENGINE CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. CAR JERKED AND ACTED AS IF IT WANTED TO CUT OFF AND WHEN PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE THE CAR WOULD NOT GO IN REVERSE. WHILE DRIVING ON JULY 14TH AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO FORD DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY REPROGRAMMED TCM THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE SAME CODE AS BEFORE ABOUT SHIFT FORK B ISSUES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR JERKED A COUPLE OF TIMES AND ACTED AS IF IT WANTED TO CUT OFF AND NOT ACCELERATE. FORD STATES THEY WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE UNLESS FOR THE CURRENT RECALLS ON THE CLUTCH AND TCM FAILURE.

TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH THIS CAR HAS STOPPED RUNNING, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON AND IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THE MOST RECENT TIME, MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING BACK TO SCHOOL IN LUBBOCK, TX GOING 80 MPH WHEN IT SHUTDOWN. SHE TRIED TO PULL OVER BUT ALMOST WRECKED DUE TO THE FACT SHE HAD NO POWER BRAKES. I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS ON THE INTERNET AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS DOCUMENTING THE SAME THING SHE HAD HAPPEN TO HER. WHEN SHE TOOK IT INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP THEY OF COURSE COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE AND THEY WOULD NOT GIVE HER A LOANER OR RENTAL CAR DURING THE TIME IT TOOK THEM TO LOOK AT IT. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE WITH FORD NOT HAVING A FIX. AT THIS POINT, IF I WASN'T UPSIDE DOWN ON THE CAR, I WOULD TRADE IT IN ON SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND IT WOULDN'T BE...

THE TRANSMISSION KEEPS SLOWING DOWN THE CAR. WON'T GET UP TO SPEED, CANNOT EXCEED 25MPH.

TAKATA INFLATORS: THIS VEHICLE IN THE "DRIVE GEAR" LUNGES WHEN GAS IS PRESSED AND QUICKLY TAKES OFF AT THE SLIGHTEST PRESS OF GAS MAKING FOR A DANGEROUS TAKE OFF FROM STOP LIGHTS AND TRAFFIC SIGNS WHILE ON MAJOR ROADWAYS. THIS VEHICLE WHEN PLACED IN THE "PARK GEAR" JERKS WHEN PLACED IN PARK AND FEELS AS IF IT WILL ROLL BACKWARDS WHILE IN PARKING LOTS OR HOME DRIVEWAY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPORTED MULTIPLE TIMES TO FORD DEALER FOR ASSESSMENT AND/OR REPAIR AS "SHAKING" AND "SHIMMIES" WHILE DRIVING, TO PREVENT THIS FEELING, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS USED OFTEN. ONCE, THE VEHICLE ACTUALLY ROLLED BACKWARDS IN THE THE "DRIVE" GEAR BUT WAS IDENTIFIED AS A DEFECT AND REPAIRED BY A FORD DEALER. WHEN PLACED IN "DRIVE" AT THAT TIME IT WAS SHOWING ON THE DASH AS IN "PARK". THIS TOO WAS CORRECTED BY FORD DEALER BY REPLACING TCM. ALTHOUGH REPAIRS HAVE BEEN...

HAVING PROBLEMS MAINTAINING SPEED ! WHEN I EXCELERATED IT DOESN'T WANT TO PICK UP SPEED THEN SUDDENLY IT PICKS UP SPEED AFTER PRESSING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. VERY DANGEROUS. I SAW THIS VERY SAME COMPLAINT FROM ANOTHER FOCUS OWNER DATED IN MARCH 2016 . VERY SCARY!

I WAS DRIVING TO GET ON THE FREEWAY AND AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE IT WOULD NOT GO ANY HIGHER IN SPEED OF 25MPH AND THEN IT SPEEDS UP DRASTICALLY.
