Description of the problem | My 2014 ford focus has the worst shudder and shake when starting out from a stop the the whole vehicle shakes and shudders like the wheels are going to come off. Once you get up to speed it normalizes but as accelerating it is just a paint shaker of a car. I have had my car in 7 times for the transmission clutch problems. It has been replaced 3 times. Twice before the initial warranty was up and then again last year when they extended the one time warranty repair. The clutch issue is still persisting and they made me pay for a throw out bearing last time it was replaced even though that part was directly related to the clutch problem the car has had since purchase. The 4 other times i brought the car in i was just told that it is normal for the car to shake a little. I do t believe that at all and i am tired of this piece a crap car with its transmission issues and ford doing nothing more to help the consumers out with the problem when they fully know it is their problem with the car. When i go to my ford app and look up the service records it is listed as unknown with a 0 dollar amount when the transmission issues were |
