 Description of the problemI bought my ford focus as a ford certified car on 04/06/2015. Car is used, had approximately 22,000 miles on it. About the beginning of may i started having problems with the car shuttering when i would accelerate. It became worse and took it into dealer for service. The service person that it is the clutch. He said that it would take 2-3 months to get the part as the clutch is on back order due to so many cars having the same problem. I asked why i was not told about this defect when i bought the car. Why didn't dealer fix it before selling it. The problem has escalated and i am afraid to drive around with my grandchildren. I am also scared as the shuttering is amplified going up hill and when accelerating. I complained to ford motor but they have not gotten back to me. I feel that i was sold the car under false circumstances. If i had known of this problem i would have bought something else. I am 71, this probably my last car and i cannot even enjoy it as afraid of crash. This not an isolated incident. There are so many clutches that need to be replaced; why no recall?? The dealership has not fixed it and says the car is safe. I do not agree. They said there is nothing they can do until part is in.
