Description of the problem | I purchased my vehicle in sept 2013 brand new with 23 miles on it. I have no medication done to my car, and for the past few months i've noticed a small miss every once and a while. This problem started getting worse at times my car would accelerate without me pushing the throttle. On 21 june 2014 the problem got much worse and started to stall when i am in neutral, and the throttle is all over the place. The car is currently at the ford dealership, this problem is all over the internet, with quite of few 2013 ford focuses effected this is a problem that need to be raised. It is a major safety concern that if left untreated could result in someone losing their life. |
