Description of the problem	I went and traded in my mustang for something with better gas mileage which ended up being a 2013 ford focus (manual automatic transmission). The first one i got was in the shop 4 times for grinding noises when it tried to shift into gear. The first time they barely had it a day and told me there was nothing wrong with it. The second through the rest of the times i had it out there they just rebooted the computer and said it is fine and will be fine. Not even two days later i was on the side of the road and could get the car to move. I barely made 3 payments on that car. I kept telling them this was a lemon and they wouldn't take it back. When i took it back to the dealership the lady i talked to said "well my sons focus hasn't been giving him any trouble. That made me really pissy. I told the lady i didn't care about her sons car you should fix mine. I went to another dealership to see if they had another focus that didn't have the "manual automatic transmission" and they did so i got that one instead of the piece of crap i had. Now i have not even made a single payment on this new car and it is doing the same thing again. They keep telling me this is normal. I will never purchase another focus or ford again. I don't care what kind of ford it is. *tt
