 Description of the problemI was driving on my way home, and my car stalled in the middle of the road. I had to throw the car in neutral and crank it back up and slam it into drive and speed off, because i was going to get hit both directions. The transmission shudders hard in between gears, stalls out on hills/ struggles on hills, it fails to accelerate in the moment, the car fails to know what gear it wants to be in. That's just the beginning. I live in the city a small area not very populated but i still deal with stop and go traffic the transmission jerks hard if you don't start moving at a steady pace. The highway though it does relatively well, but that's when other problems start i have loss of power at times while in cruise control, it will bounce back and fourth like i have bad gas or something, it also has a very bad glitch with the windshield wipers (they hit each other). I have had the upmost problems with this car primarily the transmission, but that's not all folks. I do however feel this car is such a safety hazard to people, i have a "dont buy a focus" sticker going down both sides of my cars windows. I'm stuck with this car because of credit issues so i'm going to let everyone know my story if i can save them having problems not even a year after buying this brand new focus. All ford had to say is it's a clutch problem if completely safe. That's even when i told them i didn't feel safe and i didn't want to drive it till they did something about it. I'm not on transmission clutch set #5 i've dealt with so much lost time because of this matter and ford should be held completely responsible. Start date for the problems is the day i bought the car. Dont buy a focus!!!!
