Description of the problem | Transmission in the new 2014 ford focus started shuddering and slipping. It would roll backwards on hills. It would slip in slower traffic. On takeoff it would shudder. Took this in to have fixed. And has been in shop 3 times. This is dangerous in traffic. 4 different times was almost hit by another vehicle when i would try to take off and they would slam on their brakes behind me. And it would just ram on take off at a light and almost hit vehicle in front of me. This is dangerous and many have reported this to ford. Seems no one can get anything done. This is a major problem with the transmissions. This should have already been on the recall list. Please help all of us whom have suffered and been scared for our lives. Please look into this thoroughly. So many many complaints |
