Description of the problem | Transmission causes car to consistently lurch, sputter, and stall when attempting to accelerate through the first three gears. It's annoying, but more importantly, it's dangerous on hills, in intersections, etc. I've been told it's not something i can "fix," as it is normal for focus models in my year. Hard to believe. |
