Description of the problem | My 2014 ford focus transmission gets hot and is not changing gear while driving after i got it from the ford dealer service center in ga 01/2018. It won't start because the transmission gets hot so i have to let it cool down before i can crank it. It cuts off while i'm driving. I have bought a front and rear dash cam to record and upload live video and an additional cam to for dashboard to show the red (i) light and engine light that remains on while i'm driving. I had a new battery, tcm module, clutch and clutch motor put on 12/2017, but i can't drive the car, it won't back up hills, it looses speed, don't change gears, again, i just got it out the shop!!! I have to drive it because it is the only transportation i have, so i am videoing every trip in case the whilethe car is jumping gear or transmission gets hot and car turn off while i'm driving , i can have an accurate account of an accident due to the transmission issue i am having with. I hope that the overheating doesn't cause a fire, but, if that happens,it would be recorded on my dashcam and i will post in social media. |
