THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

I WAS INSTRUCTED TO GO TO SERVICE CENTER WHEN MY FOCUS STARTS JERKING, STALLING, SHAKING, AND STALLING OUT. I HAVE BEEN AT TO MANY INTERSECTIONS WHEN MY CAR ALMOST STALLED OUT WHICH MADE ME FEAR OF MY SAFETY AND A FEW NEAR COLLISIONS. VEHICLE HAS BEEN STATIONARY AT LIGHTS AS WELL AS IN MOTION ON CITY HIGHWAYS AND ON T

I HAVE A 2015 FORD FOCUS HATCHBACK AND THE TRANSMISSION HAS ALREADY FAILED AND MY VAN IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST EVEN THOUGH THERE'S BEEN A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT GO INTO SECOND GEAR I'M ONLY DRIVING FIXED.

WENT INTO A STORE, PARKED IN PARKING SPOT, CAME OUT, GOT IN CAR, PLACED CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF SPOT, CAR BEGAN TO BACK UP, THEN SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED WITH ENGINE STILL ON,. I THEN PLACED CAR IN DRIVE, WENT FORWARD, THEN ATTEMPTED TO BACK OUT AGAIN, CAR BACKED UP, THEN SLOWED DOWN AGAIN, THEN JERKED REALLY HARD. AFTER WAITING FOR THE CARS PARKED ON THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OF ME TO LEAVE, I PLACED CAR IN REVERSE AGAIN, IT STOPPED AGAIN, I PLACED CAR IN DRIVE, CAR ACCELERATED SLOWLY, THEN GAVE A HARD JERK AGAIN, AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FORWARD AND MAKE A COMPLETE CIRCLE, AND DRIVE FORWARD OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT A HALF A MILE HOME . UPON ENTERING MY DRIVEWAY, CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE AND STOPPED WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR SAT FOR 24HRS, I THEN TRIED...

ROUGH SHIFT STARTING AT 1ST AND GOING INTO SECOND THAT VIBRATE AND RATTLES ENTIRE CAR. THE BUCKLE MAKE IT SOUNDS LIKE BONES ARE BEING BROKEN . THIS HAPPENS DRIVING ANYWHERE AND CHANGING GEARS. STOP AND GO TRAFFIC IS THE WORSE. HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE GOTTEN FROM FORD DEALERSHIP.

THIS VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR SHUDDERING AND HESITATION, IT WAS WORKING FINE BUT LATELY THE PROBLEM IS BACK.

I HAD MY FORD FOCUS TRANSMISSION REPAIRED AT LEAST THREE TIMES SO FAR. AS OF TODAY, THE CAR IS STILL STALLING AND JERKING. I SCHEDULED A SERVICE MAINTENANCE TODAY. BUT, I WAS TURNED DOWN BY TODD ( SERVICE REP) AND BOB (SERVICE MANAGER) BECAUSE THE LEVEL OF EFFECTIVENESS WAS NOT AMOUNTED TO 250. THEREFORE, THEY RECOMMEND THAT I SHOULD CONTINUE DRIVING THE CAR AS IS AND RISK MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY LIFE IS WORTH MORE THAN $3000.

I HAVE A 2015 FORD FOCUS THAT I GOT FINANCE THROUGH MARIN COUNTY FORD, APRIL 2017. I HAVE TAKEN MAY CAR TO MARIN COUNTY FORD AND RECENTLY HILLTOP FORD REGARDING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.

THEY BROKE THE COOLANT TUBE AND CHARGE ME TO FIX IT. THE ISSUES HAVE NOT BEING RESOLVED AS OF MAY 21, 2020 MY CAR IS UNDRIVABLE AND I HAVE TO REGISTER IT NEXT MONTH BY JULY 7, 2020 AS NON OPERABLE. HILLTOP FORD REFUSE TO HONOR THE RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. *TR

THE DRAIN PLUG FOR THE B6 6-SPEED TRANSMISSION COMES LOOSE AND CAUSES THE TRANSMISSION FLUID TO BLEED OUT. CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO BURN UP. THIS IS A FACTORY SHIELD SYSTEM NO WAY TO CHECK FLUID LEVEL. APPARENTLY THE FLUIDS LEAK WHILE TRAVELING. *TR

THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON THIS VEHICLE ALONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION. WE LIVED IN THE DESERT AT THE TIME (PHOENIX METRO/SAN ANTONIO TO BE EXACT); YET WHEN WE TOOK IT IN FOR WORK THE MECHANIC HAD FOUND EXTENSIVE RUST DAMAGE TO EVERYTHING. PAID OUT-OF-POCKET FOR A NEW STEERING COLUMN AND REBUILT TRANSMISSION. NOW, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE RADIATOR COMPARTMENT. I BELIEVE THAT SOMEWHERE THERE IS DAMAGE BECAUSE ONCE WE ARE DONE DRIVING FOR A BIT, THE ENTIRE RESERVOIR WILL LEAK OUT ONTO THE GROUND. *TR

TRANSMISSION- WAS DENIED SERVICE FOR CLUTCH REPLACEMENT DUE TO MILEAGE OVER 100,000. THOUGH I FILED COMPLAINT AT 90,000 MILES. ALSO, TRANSMISSION LEAKS DUE TO THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION.

DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE AND MY 2015 FORD FOCUS WOULDN'T SHIFT CORRECTLY. THEN A LIGHT CAME ON SAYING "TRANSMISSION FAILURE. SERVICE NOW." I WAS ABLE TO CRUISE TO SAFETY BUT IT WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION WITH 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR!

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR IS FINE, HOWEVER WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE, MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO STICK... THEN IT CAUSES MY CAR TO SHUDDER AND SHAKE. THIS ISSUE ALSO OCCURS DURING ACCELERATING AT LOWER SPEEDS (10-30MPH) AND CAN OCCUR DURING ACCELERATION WHEN A COMPLETE STOP HAS NOT BEEN MADE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE WAS 16,320.

ON JUNE 15TH 2019 I WAS INVOLVED IN MY FIRST ACCIDENT. I WAS AT A STOP GOING STRAIGHT AND IN FRONT OF ME WAS A CAR TURNING TO GO SOUTH ON THE STREET IN FRONT OF ME. AS I WAS GETTING MY FIRST GEAR READY TO GO MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED FORWARD AND I T-BONED THE PERSON TURNING. I HAD MY CHILDREN WITH ME AND AFTER THIS ACCIDENT I FEEL VERY UNSAFE IN MY CAR, I LOST TRUST IN FORD KEEPING ME AND MY FAMILY SAFE. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN RECALLS BUT WHEN I TAKE IT IN THEY SAY IT JUST A SOFTWARE UPDATE OR SOMETHING ABOUT A FUEL TANK. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL IN REGARDS TO MY TRANSMISSION AND I HAVE MENTIONED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY GIVE ME THE RUN AROUND AND SAY THAT THEY DON'T SHOW THAT IN THEIR SYSTEMS SO THEY CAN'T DO...

I LITERALLY JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR AND THE STEREO IS POPPING VERY LOUDLY WHEN IT IS TURNED OFF , LOUD, LOW NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK BUT TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON. THIS A EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD FROM BEING SCARED FROM THE POPPING NOTICES OUT OF NO WHERE TO MY HEARING ON THE ROAD WHICH IS A DANGER. I HAVE READ MANY MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS HAPPENING BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. I AM ALSO HAVE POWER ISSUES TO WHERE MY CAR JERKS AND SHUDDERS AFTER A COMPLETE STOP LIKE IT DOESN'T WANT TO TAKE OFF WHICH IT SHOULD NOT DO. I HAVE READ MANY DEFECTS ON THIS PROBLEM TOO

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR IS FINE, HOWEVER WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE, MY CAR'S TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO STICK... THEN IT CAUSES MY CAR TO SHUDDER. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME MY CAR HITS 1600RPMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD FOCUS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE STOPPED ABRUPTLY WHILE DRIVING. IN ADDITION, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED SIMULTANEOUSLY. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO CAVALIER FORD GREENBRIER (1515 S MILITARY HWY, CHESAPEAKE, VA 23320, (757) 424-1111) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE KEY FOBS AND BATTERY WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

#1- ON AN INCLINE: AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, TRANSMISSION PERIODICALLY SHUDDERS AROUND 15-20 MPH WHEN SHIFTING GEARS AUTOMATICALLY. ALSO OCCURS FREQUENTLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO 10 MPH FOR A SPEED BUMP, THEN ACCELERATING MODESTLY; USUALLY OCCURS IN 15-20 MPH RANGE. #2- AFTER TRANSMISSION HEATS UP (DRIVING FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES), TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AFTER COMING ALMOST TO A COMPLETE STOP, THEN TURNING ONTO ADJACENT STREET AND ACCELERATING MODERATELY. AGAIN, MOST OFTEN OCCURS BETWEEN 15-20 MPH. #3- HILLSIDE ASSIST ON AN INCLINE: SOMETIMES TRANSMISSION HOLDS VEHICLE IN PLACE, SOMETIMES VEHICLE ROLLS BACK. #4- FROM A DEAD STOP, ENGINE BOGS DOWN A LITTLE UPON INITIAL ACCELERATION UNLESS GAS PEDAL IS STRONGLY DEPRESSED. VEHICLE PURCHASED SEPTEMBER 2019 FROM DEALERSHIP, MULTIPLE EVENTS (OVER TWO DOZEN) OCCURRED BEGINNING ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AND CONTINUING OVER A THREE-MONTH (APPROXIMATELY 1,400 MILES DRIVEN) PERIOD.

WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP OR ACCELERATING THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND SUDDENLY GAINS TRACTION. NOTICEABLE SLIPPING AND MISSED SHIFTS ARE ALWAYS OCCURING.

MY VEHICLE ACCELERATED WHEN I WAS SLAMMING FULL PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE AND CAUSED ME TO HIT A STORE, THANK THE LORD I HAD FULL COVERAGE AND IT ONLY DID COSMETIC DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE, I'VE ALSO HAD TIMES WHERE IT WILL SAY THE TRACTION CONTROL IS OUT OR IT HAS NO UPHILL START, MY MODEL DOESN'T HAVE THAT. I WOULD LIKE A REFUND ON MY VEHICLE BUT IT HAS ISSUES ALREADY.

THE VEHICLE CONTINUALLY SURGES WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN IN REPEATEDLY AND I AM TOLD THAT THEY UPDATE SOFTWARE ON A MODULE. AM TOLD IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT BECAUSE IT IS IN LITIGATION THEY CAN'T REPLACE TRANSMISSION. I WANT A SAFE CAR. I AM AFRAID TO LET MY GRANDCHILDREN RIDE IN IT. DATE BELOW FOR EVENT DATE IS MOST RECENT.

WHILE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THE VEHICLES DPS6 DUAL-CLUTCH "POWERSHIFT" TRANSMISSION FAILED TO DOWNSHIFT PROPERLY CAUSING THE CAR TO REAR ENDED THE CAR IN FRONT OF IT. IMPACT WAS ROUGHLY 15-25 MPH.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES CLUTCH SHUDDERING ON LIGHT ACCELERATION. FORD HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BUT REFUSES TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AS THE SERVICE TECH ADVISES, AFTER DRIVING IT, THAT IT ISN'T SEVERE ENOUGH YET, PER FORD'S ARBITRARY STANDARDS. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE SHUDDER OCCURS WHEN FIRST STARTING OUT FROM A STOP. THE NORMAL REACTION WHEN THIS OCCURS IS TO GIVE IT MORE GAS, RESULTING IN MORE RAPID ACCELERATION THAN PLANNED OR NECESSARY. THIS MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON WET OR ICY ROADS. IT IS A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT, ACKNOWLEDGED BY FORD, BUT FORD REFUSES TO REPAIR IT, GAMBLING THAT I'LL SELL IT OR TIME ON THEIR EXTENDED 'WARRANTY' WILL RUN OUT BEFORE IT GETS BAD ENOUGH TO MEET THEIR ARBITRARY REPAIR THRESHOLD.

DURING THAT TIME I'VE EXPERIENCED A RECURRING, PERSISTENT AND SEVERE TRANSMISSION SHUDDER THAT MAKES THE CAR LURCH AND LAG WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP OR SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR (ALTHOUGH IT IS LESS SEVERE - STILL VERY NOTICEABLE, BUT NOT SCARY WHEN SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND).
