Description of the problem | I am making a complaint that my 2016 ford focus with a installed automatic dual-clutch power-shift transmission. I am experiencing severe hesitations when i accelerate. I am experiencing a jerky car movement, as i am driving, this having g the feeling that i could lose control of my vehicle. The driving conditions are the worst in normal city driving conditions, as the transmission is working more than on a interstate or freeway. Most of my diving is in the city. I have take it to local authorized ford dealerships and they say there is no recall, fix, and that it will be $289 to give a diagnosis. There is currently a class action lawsuit that was filed, but is too late to join. I am filing my complaint against how ford is not helping to solve a known issue with my vehicle, without major costs. Ive taken the vehicle to an established auto transmission business and they diagnosed that the vehicle will need a full transmission rebuild or replacement. The |
