 Description of the problemI have had my 2014 ford focus for almost 2 years now and it has been giving me nothing but problems with the transmission/clutches. The first time i noticed it was a little after 5 months of having the car i was driving the vehicle on the highway and out of nowhere it died on me shut off while i was in motion in heavy traffic. I was able to pull to the side of the road and turn it off and was able to turn it on and take it to the dealership. At the dealership i was told my computer malfunctioned and needed to be updated. After doing this my car was fine for about another 2 months then it started to sputter, hesitate while turning and in motion and also not shifting gears correctly. I took it again to the dealership and this time they told me my clutches need to be replaced and this happens all the time with my type of car. I was confused about them telling me this because this is very dangerous to be happening all the time. I go the car back worked fine for another 3 months then the same thing again with the transmission. Took it in again and was told again that i needed the new clutches in my car and i said new clutches? Why was i not given a recall on my old one oh because we only change them out if you come in and complain about the old ones what?? Really!! So got my car back and this time 2 months later today 1/23/16 i was driving the vehicle and was mid u-turn and my car turned off in the middle of my u-turn in on coming traffic almost killing me!!! I haven't been to the delaership yet but after numerous attempts with ford corporate to fix this nothing is happening they are not taking blame for anything and refusing to recall these cars. Reading online i'm happy to see that i am not the only one they tell this too and it really makes me upset, angry and frustrated. I'm scared to drive my brand new car because of this please help me and everyone else.
