 Description of the problemThe same week i purchased my new ford focus, the transmission started to shudder upon acceleration but it wasnt every time i drove it. It would do it for a day or two then stop for several weeks or even months. Then it started doing it every time i drove it.. I contacted ford, took it in and they told me they fixed it. It appeared to be fixed for a while then started doing the same thing again. Once again, i took it back to ford, was told they were having transmission problems with that year and once again i was assured it was fixed. I have taken it back 4 or 5 times now for the same problem and each time have been told ford has found a new way to correct the problem. The last time i had it in was august,7,2015. I was told once again that there was a new fix for the problem and that it was fixed. Within a couple of days it started shuddering again. Its doing just like always . Starts out just every now and then and then gets to be constant. I have noticed a different problem also. Sometimes the transmission seems to want to keep going when i am trying to slow down or come to a stop it seems to stick. Its very scary. I am actually concerned for my safety at this point.
