ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I 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!!!!

Potential Consequences:
TRANSMISSION SLIPS CONSTANTLY. VEHICLE HAS A TRANSMISSION THAT IS MANUAL WITH CLUTCH PLATES BUT OPERATES AS AUTOMATIC. I FIND IT SHUDDERS AT ABOUT 18/19 MILES PER HOURS SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEARS. THIS IS HAZARDOUS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT IS INTERMITTENT AND YOU NEVER KNOW IF YOUR CAR IS GOING TO GO OR SHUDDER UNTIL IT FINDS THE GEAR. THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH PLATES HAVE BEEN REPLACED ONCE AND IT HAS BEEN IN TWICE MORE FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES. NOT WHAT I EXPECTED WHEN I PURCHASED A NEW CAR AND WAS NOT TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS WAS THE WAY THE TRANSMISSION WORKED. VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS BEEN IN 3 TIMES FOR TRANSMISSION AND NEEDS TO GO AGAIN. FIRST ISSUE WAS 12/12/16, VEHICLE WAS 2 MONTHS OLD AND HAS BEEN ONGOING.

ONGOING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN MY FOCUS. AFTER NUMEROUS RETURNS TO THE DEALER, TWICE FOR CLUTCH KIT REPLACEMENTS AND AT LEAST 5-6 TIMES FOR OTHER "ADJUSTMENTS" IT STILL HAS PROBLEMS. JERKING, HESITATION, LOSS OF POWER EVEN WHILE DRIVING. I PULLED OUT OF A SHOPPING PLAZA THE OTHER DAY AND WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. MY CAR WILL FEEL LIKE IT'S DOWNSHIFTING AND DRAGGING, EVEN WHILE I'M DRIVING AT A STEADY SPEED. IT JERKS AND SHUDDERS WHEN I ACCELERATE AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. RPM DIAL OFTEN GOES ALL THE WAY TO 8 OR 9 UNTIL THE CAR FINALLY SHIFTS. DEALER CAN NOT SEEM TO FIX THIS. ALSO, AT TIMES WHEN MOVING AGAIN AFTER A STOP, THE CAR WILL FEEL LIKE IT'S "BANGING" UNDERNEATH. HAVE ADDRESSED THIS WITH SERVICE AT THE DEALER, BUT IT STILL DOES IT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING CONSTANTLY FOR THE TWO PLUS YEARS I'VE HAD IT. I HAVE MANY DOCUMENTS AND REPAIR RECEIPTS TO DOWNLOAD, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHEN AND IF YOU WILL NEED THEM.

Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT SPEEDS AROUND 65-70 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL AND THE VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. PRESSING ON THE GAS WOULD REV THE ENGINE UP TO 4-5K RPMS. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER BUT WAS TERRIFIED OF BEING STRUCK BY A LARGE SEMI TRUCK BEHIND ME UNTIL I COULD GET TO THE SHOULDER. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN RE-ENGAGED THE TRANSMISSION AND IT WORKED SPORADICALLY UNTIL I COULD GET TO THE NEXT EXIT. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE REVERSE WOULDN'T ENGAGE. I DROVE THE CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP. ON THE WAY THERE, THE CAR WOULD JOLT FORWARD IN AN INTERSECTION, ONLY TO SLIP INTO NEUTRAL WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. THIS SLIPPING INTO NEUTRAL HAPPENED TWO OR THREE TIMES ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. ALSO, WHEN COMING TO A STOP, THE GEARS WOULD SHIFT AUTOMATICALLY INTO A LOWER GEAR PREMATURELY WHICH RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE COMING TO A FASTER STOP THAN WAS EXPECTED.
