Description of the problem | At about 20,000 miles, the dps6 transmission started shuddering and vibrating during acceleration. It got progressively worse, and at 21,988 miles, on 6/12/2019, i took it to the dealer from whom i had purchased the car new on 6/20/2016. A technician performed labor code #160109a. He then noted, "found some clutch shudder still present but fewer than 250 rpm, ok per ford." after i complained, the service manager sent me a letter offering me a free oil change (which i declined). Today, 7/17/2019, at 21,988 miles, the transmission is still shuddering. I am waiting to see what happens on the ford focus/fiesta transmission settlement. My claim id no. On this settlement is 10612086. |
