 Description of the problemThis is my third ford focus se in less than a year. My first was a manual transmission and after a few hundred miles i had difficulty getting the stick into reverse. I took it to the dealer who after a day of testing told me nothing was wrong. They were never able to re-create the problem but it always came and went over time. I eventually traded it back in for the automatic early 2014. The car drove like a dream until 600 miles the car was in drive while going 45mph and all of a sudden it acted like it was in neutral. The motor would just rev but there was no power to the wheels. I pulled off the road and selected park, drive and reverse but they all acted as neutral.... The dealer came and picked the vehicle up and did some sort of reset on it in the parking lot. The car then drove but they still took it with them to the dealer. The next day they told me they drove and tested the vehicle on a machine and all the parameters were fine.... I told them "you reset my car before testing so ofcourse its acting fine now." i told them i did not want the car back and nor did i want another ford focus. Mind you i had to carry negative equity from the first one to this one. The dealer agreed to buy the vehicle back at its reduced sticker price only which left me with a substantial amount of negative equity yet again which the only vehicle on the lot that could hole it was of course.... A ford focus... I am now in my 3rd 2014 focus se and it hesitates and jerks from time to time and once the transmission fault light came on but disappeared after i turned the car off and then back on... This car is unsafe and has caused a burden on me financially. I am an active duty military member and all i wanted was a safe car to get me to work. I pleaded for them to just take the car back and settle the negative equity they created... Ford did not care.
