Description of the problem | Car stutters, stalls, jerks, whenever your under acceleration. In the 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears. It shakes, shimmies, and rattles horribly and is a hazard to turn in front of oncoming traffic, even when they are far away (it will bog down). Ford says this car does this for the new dual clutch car. Had it looked at many times and the last time they said its not bad enough to replace trans and they just keep reprogramming it. Problem just keeps coming back. Guess someone will have to get killed first in order to fix this isssue, and as from i can research, there are a lot of focus's with this problem. First and last ford i will own.... |
