Description of the problem | My 2014 focus is part of the group of cars that has a terrible clutch slippage problem. It's so bad that ford has offered to replace the clutch on extended warranty through a customer satisfaction program. Only one problem, because my car has a restored salvage title, that program doesn't include me. Ford has replaced this clutch once a while back, the car had a restored title then as well. So this clutch that is bad is the replaced clutch that should have a warranty regardless of the title status of the car. If this had been listed as a recall, it would have covered me, but because it's called a "customer satisfaction program" they won't cover me. Ford claims they came to that consensus with the help of the nhsta, if this is so, please extend the clutch coverage to people like me! We have the same problem clutch as cars with a clean title, and the clutch didn't go back because of an accident! It's a terrible product that ford discontinued for good reason. Please reconsider and make this a recall....... |
