 Description of the problemI placed my car in reverse at an incline on my driveway i triple checked the tail lights, gears on dash and on shifter knob to verify that the car was in fact in reverse however my car instead moving in reverse was moving forward. I checked again and let go of gas and again it crept forward. Placed it in neutral and it too went forward as well (triple checked the vehicle to be sure i was in the right gear). This car gave no warning of what it was doing or that the transmission was malfunctioning. Other problems the transmission does is that it shudders on acceleration, meaning its shakes like a manual transmission car when this car is in fact an automatic. It's shakes a lot in turns, low speeds, and just on acceleration without a full and complete stop. I have taken this vehicle time and time again to ford and i they are only doing the minimal work. Ford has restarted the transmission computer and only once did they remove and changed a part of the transmission (clutch was removed and changed). I believe that they are waiting for a fatality to happen in order for ford to have a recall. I know i am not the only person having these issues. People driving the 2013 focus and fiesta are having similar issues. I have tried the lemon law only to be told that i was aware of what i purchased and that is that.... They may tell what technology is in the vehicle and how this saves gas however they forget that the consumer is not an expert mechanic! Please help!
