TRANSMISSION SHUDDERING AND LOCKED UP IN TRAFFIC I HAD TO CYCLE THE IGNITION KEY TO GET THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. I HAVE 2 FIELD SERVICE ACTIONS FOR MY VEHICLE HOWEVER FORD WON'T REPAIR MY ISSUE DUE TO THE VEHICLE HAVING A BRANDED TITLE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE FIRST TRANSMISSION DUE TO A CYCLING INSIDE TRANSMISSION WHICH ENDED UP BUSTING TRANSMISSION CASE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE CAR DISPLAYS THE P0902 OBII CODE. THE ENGINE STALLS AND WONT CHANGE GEARS PROPERLY. THIS IS SPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN TURNING SINCE THE CARS BEHIND YOU CAN'T SEE YOU'RE STALLING AND MAY CRASH INTO YOU. SOME TIMES IT GETS SO BAD THAT THE DASHBOARD DISPLAYS A MESSAGE THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAS HEATED UP AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR WON'T EVEN RUN OR CHANGE GEARS AT THAT POINT. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING. SPECIALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IDLE FOR A WHILE.

I HAVE TRIED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED BECAUSE IT SHUDDERS, JERKS AND HESITATES EACH TIME I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULDN'T FIX THE RECALL OR WARRANTY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DIAGNOSTIC WASN'T SHOWING ANY PROBLEMS. THE CAR HAS CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME BUT NOW I'M TOLD THIS IS THE PROBLEM BUT IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THE MILEAGE IS AT 119,000 MILES AND IT EXCEEDED THE 100,000 MILES FOR THE WARRANTY. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP IT WAS UNDER 100,000. I THINK I'M BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BECAUSE FORD NEW OF THESE PROBLEMS AND I DON'T BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A TIME OR MILEAGE LIMIT. THE VEHICLE HAS STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF EXCELERATING, IT JERKS WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO PULL OFF AND SHUDDERS WHILE IN MOTION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
1. CLUTCH SLIPS IN TRANSMISSION CAUSING VEHICLE TO STALL OR REACH DANGEROUS RPM'S BEFORE SWITCHING INTO ANOTHER GEAR. 2. REPAIR WAS DENIED BY FORD STATING THAT IT WASN'T RELATED TO THE CURRENT RECALL BUT WAS THE CLUTCHES THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. CLUTCHES ARE GOING OUT DUE TO THE TCM THAT WAS RECALLED ON THE VEHICLE. 3. HORN HAS DECIDED TO STOP WORKING ALONG WITH CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL DUE TO A WIRING ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. FUSES HAVE BEEN CHANGED ENSURING THAT IT IS A WIRING ISSUE. 4. HAZARD LIGHTS AS WELL AS HALF THE BUTTONS ON THE DASH INCLUDING RADIO, ETC. HAVE ALSO DECIDED TO STOP WORKING DUE TO A WIRING ISSUE IN THE VEHICLE. NO HAZARDS MAKING IT A RISK AND UNSAFE TO PULL VEHICLE OFF OF ROAD IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY. 5. FORD DEALERSHIP THAT CAR WAS TAKEN TO STATED ALL RECALLS WERE COMPLETED BUT WHEN VIN IS ENTERED THROUGH FORDS WEBSITE IT STATES THAT ALL RECALLS ARE INCOMPLETE. FORD SENT ME A NOTICE FOR REPAIRS ON TRANSMISSION STATING IT WILL BE ALMOST $1400 TO REPLACE CLUTCHES IN TRANSMISSION. THERE WOULD BE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CLUTCHES IF THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE TO BEGIN WITH. REPAIRING THE TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT BE ON THE OWNER OF THESE VEHICLES AND FORD SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR THE REPAIRS TO AN ISSUE THAT WAS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO CORRECT FROM THE BEGINNING AND WAS NOT CORRECTED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

I BOUGHT MY SON A 2014 FORD FOCUS TWO YEARS AGO IT WAS A REBUILT/SALVAGED TITLE THAT HAD BEEN FULLY REPAIRED. IT WAS A NICE CAR AND IS. I TOOK IT TO ROCKWALL FORD FOR RECALLS DOOR LATCH AND TRANSMISSION CLUTCH ISSUE. THEY WERE NICE AND SAID THERE IS NO NEED TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH UNTIL IT STARTS ACTING UP. BUT WE ARE GIVING YOU 100K PLUS MILES EXTENDED WARRANTY. FAST FORWARD TWO YEARS MY SON IS DRIVEN THE CALL 20K PLUS MILES AND NOW IN TUCSON AZ ATTENDING COLLEGE AND TUTTLE FORD IN TUCSON, AZ SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED BECAUSE THE CAR HAS A SALVAGED TITLE. THIS IS NOT RIGHT, THE SALVAGE TITLE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH A CLUTCH RECALL. HE SAID THE OTHER DAY HE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT DID NOT WANT TO GO.

HAS ANYONE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH POWER STEERING? I HAVE A 2014 TITANIUM AND FOR THE LAST MONTH OR SO I'VE NOTICED MY POWER STEERING TAKING A COUPLE SECONDS LONGER TO KICK IN WHEN I START MY CAR. LAST WEEK, AN ALERT CAME ON STATING 'POWER STEERING ASSIST MALFUNCTION'. I TOOK IT INTO A FORD DEALER TO GET LOOKED AT, AND THEY SAID THE CODE THAT CAME UP FOR THEM SHOWED A POWER STEERING MODULE/POWER STEERING GEAR ISSUE. THE WHOLE THING NEEDS REPLACED.
