Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Bolt sheared off in the transmission while on the highway causing the car to stall out & be unable to go into any gear, gates for the gears seemed to be gone as shifter knob could move freely around. It did re-start once, just long enough to get off the highway, then immediately stopped working again. Got the bolt replaced with a ford bolt, it sheared off again while driving downtown within 4 days, had it replaced and bolted through a 2nd time, and it sheared off yet again while merging onto the highway, 2 of the three times this happened car was above 30mph, one time i was only going about 15mph. Car is still not functional & ford has stated thus far, their suggestion is replacing the transmission, which seems to be a temporary fix, as everyone else who i know/have looked up that's had this done only gets the vehicle working for a short period of time and then the vehicle stops working again when the bolt shears off. This seems to be a common issue for the 2012-2016 ford focus, though i don't know if it's just manual or both manual & automatic transmissions.
