Description of the problem | I purchased my used 2013 ford focus on august 4th 2015. Since then it has been in the shop four times to address the dual clutch system being faulty. The car will shutter between gears, struggle to accelerate, it will roll backwards/forwards at stops while the car is still in drive and when i am going to park. It also will rev up randomly and almost lurch forward when its trying to shift. I bring the car in and they "fix" it, when i pick it up from the shop it runs smoothly for a short period of time before it starts all over again. |
