Description of the problem | Bought a 2014 ford focus 1/17/16and 6 months after owning it, the vehicle shuddered when taking off at a green light, had lost power around corners. Got a recall notice june 2016 got a new clutch and transmission power train. January 2017 problem persisted brought it back to the dealer they said its over 60,000 warranty and have to pay cash for the transmission repair . Could not drive the car safely it would not shift. Brought it back without recall notice june 20, 2017, and the dealer said they will file a 360 on repair of the clutch. Waiting for the dealer to call now 6/21/17 . I need a reliable car for work and my family and can not drive this car. So scared driving it 3/4 close calls and rear ends. It sits as i pay for it every month. |
