SOMETIMES CAR SEEMS LIKE IT WAS A MANUAL SNUBBING OUT. ALSO THE MPG INDICATOR WOULD NOT FLUCTUATE AND STAYED AT 29.9MPG, HAD BEEN STUCK AT 29.9 MPG FOR A FEW MONTHS. SERVICE REPAIR = REPLACE BOTH FRONT SPRINGS AND BEARINGS. 11/05/12-11/07/12, 10950K MI, LAST REPAIR DID NOT FIX THE GRINDING NOISE. MAKES THIS GRINDING NOISE ALSO WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. WHEN SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEARS. SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID THEY COULD HEAR IT SOMETIMES, BUT COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND INSTRUCTED ME TO KEEP DRIVING THE CAR UNTIL IT MADE THE NOISE ENOUGH FOR THEM TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. 05/15/13-05/17/13, 13514K MI, CAR WOULD HAVE TROUBLE ACCELERATING, WAS JERKING WHEN TAKING OFF FROM STOPS, MADE GRINDING NOISES WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. 06/12/13, 14103K MI, SINCE CLUTCH REPLACED CAR ROLLS BACK, ON A FLAT SURFACE AND MY CAR ALMOST ROLLED INTO THE CAR BEHIND ME. 07/17/13-07/18/13, 16007K MI, WHEN CAR SHIFTS GEARS IT IS JERKING REALLY BADLY, CAUSING PASSENGERS UPPER BODY TO JERK FORWARD AWAY FROM THEIR SEAT. SHUTTERING AND THE CAR MAKES A BAD GRINDING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING. ONE INSTANCE I WAS ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, AND GOT HALF WAY THROUGH FIRST GEAR AND THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING. CAR ACCELERATING BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR-ENDED MY CAR. 7/18/2013, 16043K MI, SHUTTERING STILL THERE. AS I EASED OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC, THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AFTER REMOVING MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR. SAFETY ISSUE! *TR

STEERING
THE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILS WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED. IT JUST CUTS OFF AND STEERING BECOMES EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. RESTARTING THE CAR SEEMS TO RESET THE PSA AND I CAN DRIVE AGAIN. BUT THIS HAS HAPPENED 7-8 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. I'VE GONE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES, AND EACH TIME THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THE ERROR, BUT CANNOT REPLICATE IT AND THEY DO NOT MAKE ANY CORRECTIVE REPAIRS OR ACTION. THEY JUST EXPECT ME TO DRIVE OFF WITH THE CAR WITH THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM STILL IN EXISTENCE - AND THEY'RE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM! AND THEY DO NOT APPEAR TO BE RESEARCHING IT. THIS IS MY FAMILY CAR, AND THIS IS JUST IRRESPONSIBLE OF FORD. PSA IS NOT AN OPTIONAL FEATURE THAT WE CAN LIVE WITHOUT. WE'VE BEEN FORTUNATE THAT THESE FAILURES HAVE OCCURRED UNDER 45MPH AND ON MOSTLY STRAIGHT RESIDENTIAL ROADS. WHAT ABOUT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR AT A SHARP BEND? WILL IT TAKE LIVES LOST BEFORE THEY EVEN BEGIN TO FIX THE PROBLEM? AND GOOGLE SEARCHES SHOW THAT THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM AND MANY OTHERS ARE GIVEN THE SHRUG OFF. FORD KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM, BUT ARE NOT ADDRESSING IT PROPERLY. PLEASE HELP. *TR

2012 FORD FOCUS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION OCCURRED, A DAY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED.

POWER TRAIN
WHEN WE DROVE THIS BRAND NEW FORD FOCUS OFF THE DEALER LOT WE NOTICED A SUDDEN JERK IN THE TRANSMISSION. WE DID NOT KNOW IF THIS WAS A FLUKE OR NORMAL SO WE DROVE IT ABOUT A THOUSAND MILES. THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO JERK MORE, JUMP, STALL, HESITATE, AND REV UP NEEDLESSLY AND SEEM TO GET STUCK IN GEAR. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER WITH OUR COMPLAINTS AND THEY REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER AND TOLD US TO GIVE IT ANOTHER THOUSAND MILES TO IMPROVE. AS OF THIS DATE, WE HAVE HAD THIS CAR BACK TO THE SHOP 7 TIMES WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. AT ABOUT 36,000 MILES THEY DID PUT IN A CLUTCH KIT WHICH HELPED IT FOR ABOUT EIGHT THOUSAND MILES. UNFORTUNATELY, THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED. IT IS AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE FOR US. WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HESITATE GETTING OUT INTO TRAFFIC...AND WE HAVE BEEN CLOSE TO AN ACCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES. THIS LAST TRIP TO THE SHOP, JUST FRI THE 19TH, THEY TELL US THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO...JUST LIVE WITH IT. I KNOW WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM, THE TECHNICIAN TOLD US THAT OUTRIGHT. WE ARE SICK OF THIS CAR AND WE HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL OUR RESOURCES. WE WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW THIS IS NOT A SAFE CAR SO THAT IS OUR REASON FOR THIS LETTER. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
INCIDENCE OCCURRED TWICE IN 2 DAY PERIOD. "STOP SAFELY NOW" ERROR OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. 1ST INSTANCE WAS WHILE BREAKING AS APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT. 2ND INSTANCE WAS WHILE ACCELERATING ON FREEWAY ONRAMP. BOTH INSTANCES I LOST ALL ENGINE POWER AND COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. I HAD TO COAST TO A SAFE SPOT TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE BUT WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AND DRIVE TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN WITH THIS VEHICLE AS DRIVER MAY NOT HAVE ABILITY TO COAST TO SAFE STOP WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY OR BUSY TRAFFIC. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, THERE IS RAMPANT OCCURRENCE OF THIS EXACT FAILURE BEING DESCRIBED ON VEHICLE OWNER FORUMS FOR FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC BOTH 2012 AND 2013 MODELS. *TR

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, POWER TRAIN
1. MY 2012 FORD FOCUS IS STALLING OUT AND REVVING UP AT HIGH RPMS THEN STALLING OUT FOR THE LAST 4 MONTHS. 2. THIS IS THE FOURTH OCCURRENCE FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS. 3 TIMES IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS. 3. THE FIRST TWO TIMES, FORD COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND RELATED TO DRIVING AT HIGH RPMS OR SPINNING ON GRAVEL WHICH NEVER OCCURRED. I ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD REV AT HIGH RPMS BUT NOT GO ANYWHERE THEN STALL, NOT ON A GRAVEL ROAD BUT A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING 55-60 MPH. TWICE THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED. THE OTHER TIMES I COULD DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT 30MPH BUT IT WOULD CONTINUOUSLY STALL OUT. THE THIRD TIME THEY REPLACED THE COMPUTER WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE FOURTH TIME OCCURRED AND MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR A OVER A WEEK AND THEY STILL CANNOT FIGURE WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. MY VEHICLE HAS 41,000 MILES AND STILL COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN. FORD IS REFUSING TO BUY THE VEHICLE BACK UNDER STATE LEMON LAWS AND NOT GIVING ME AN OFFER FOR DIMINISHED VALUE FOR THE HIT I AM GOING TO TAKE ON THE TRADE IN ONCE I HOPEFULLY GET THE VEHICLE BACK OPERATIONAL. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
I SEE HERE THAT SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS COMPLAINING HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINTS THAT I DO, THE INCLINE PROBLEMS, THE VEHICLE SOUNDING LIKE IT IS GOING TO DIE ON YOU. THE PROBLEMS WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD THAT PROBLEM FROM THE TIME WE PURCHASED IT. I AM THINKING IT IS THE TRANSMISSION. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GUIDE ME. I STILL HAVE YEARS ON THE NOTE AND IT IS NOT FAIR TO PAY ON SOMETHING THAT IS AS MENTIONED BY SOMEONE HERE, IS "EMBARRASSING TO DRIVE WITH A PASSENGER". THE SPEED DOES NOT MATTER IT KEEPS MAKING THIS RATTLING NOISE WHEN YOU ACCELERATE. PLEASE RECALL THESE CARS. *TR

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUMPY ROAD AT 40MPH THIS MORNING, CAME TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN, ATTEMPTED TO TURN RIGHT AND MERGE ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH AN 50MPH SPEED LIMIT, THE CAR STARTED TO GO AND THEN ALL POWER CUT OUT WITHOUT WARNING AND THE "STOP SAFELY NOW" AND "REFER TO OWNERS MANUAL" WARNINGS CAME UP ON THE LEFT SCREEN! LUCKILY, I WAS NOT FULLY INTO THE TRAFFIC YET AS THERE WERE SEVERAL SEMIS COMING. I VEERED TO THE SHOULDER AND STOPPED. IF I HAD GOT GOING EVEN FOR A SECOND MORE I WOULD HAVE BEEN OUT IN TRAFFIC IN THE PATH OF A SEMI COMING AT OVER 50MPH. IT TOOK A FEW MINUTES OF TRYING TO TURN IT OFF. EVENTUALLY I OPENED THE DRIVERS DOOR AND THAT SEEMED TO FREE IT UP TO TURN IT OFF. I WAS THEN ABLE TO START IT BACK UP AGAIN AND CARRY ON WITH MY DAY. *TR

ENGINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WAS NOT ABLE TO SAFELY ACCELERATE WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED WHEN I DOWN SHIFTED A GEAR TO PASS SOMEONE (MANUAL TRANSMISSION). THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT HAD ABOUT 30% POWER. I WAS FORCED TO PULL OFF OF HIGHWAY. ONCE VEHICLE WAS SHUTOFF AND TURNED BACK ON IT RETURNED TO NORMAL. I HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH OR ANYTHING. IT JUST HAPPENED ALL OF THE SUDDEN AND WAS VERY SCARY. *TR

I BOUGHT AS A FORD PRE-OWNED. I DID NOT NOTICE THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERING. AFTER OWNING THE CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK. I STARTED NOTICING THE TRANSMISSION STARTING TO GET JERKY. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY PERFORMED THE UPDATE BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THAT IS THE WAY THE NEW TRANSMISSION ARE.IT IS NOT GETTING ANY BETTER. IF I COULD I WOULD BE TRADING IN AND GETTING ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TR

THIS CAR HAS HAD THE PROBLEM WITH ROUGH SHIFTING AND ROLL BACK ON HILL ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASED IN MAY . I REPORTED INCIDENT TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY DID NOT DO ANYTHING BUT LATER IN MAY 2012 RECEIVED THE SERVICE NOTICE FOR REPROGRAMMING. IT HELPED IT BUT DID NOT FIX IT AND THIS PROBLEM RETURNED AND ACTUALLY GOT WORSE. WE JUST TOOK IT TO OUR DEALER FOR SERVICE ON 6/21/13 AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A CLUTCH ASSEMBLY PACK THEY REPLACED. ONCE AGAIN THE CAR IS DRIVING BETTER BUT STILL NOT WHAT I CONSIDER NORMAL (SMOOTH SHIFTING/ACCELERATING) FOR ANY CAR. I AM CONCERNED THAT ISSUE WILL RETURN WITH TIME. FORD NEEDS TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION ONCE AND FOR ALL. WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN ORDER TO HAVE A RECALL? *TR

STEERING, POWER TRAIN
MY FIRST INCIDENT WAS DRIVING OUT OF A PARKING LOT, THE POWER STEERING MESSAGE APPEARED WITH A STRANGE BEEPING NOISE FOLLOWED BY AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MOVE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN I TURNED OFF MY CAR AND GOT IT BACK ON, THE POWER STEERING WAS BACK TO ITS NORMAL LEVELS. LATER THE NEXT DAY, THE CAR WAS IN MOVEMENT OVER 30MPH WHILE DRIVING THROUGH THE HIGHWAY AND THE POWER STEERING MESSAGE CAME ON AGAIN MAKING MY CAR TOTALLY UNRESPONSIVE CAUSING ME TO ALMOST CRASH. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET THE CAR OUT OF THE HIGH WAY IN ORDER TO HAVE THE STEERING LEVELS BACK BY TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. TODAY I TOOK MY CAR TO THE FORD SERVICE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS IN ORDER TO GET MY CAR CHECKED BUT THE SERVICE MANAGER INDICATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO ABOUT THIS INCIDENT FOR WHAT SUGGESTED ME TO CONTACT ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE DURING THE NEXT INCIDENT AND HAVE THEM TAKE IN MY CAR TO THERE SERVICE TO FIX IT AT THE MOMENT. I MENTIONED THAT IF THAT WAS TO BE DONE MY CAR WOULD OBVIOUSLY HAVE TO BE TURNED OFF AND ON IN THE PROCESS CAUSING THE ISSUE TO MOMENTARILY DISAPPEAR FOR WHAT HE WOULD STILL NOT BE ABLE TO WITNESS THE INCIDENT AS HE REQUEST, JUST LIKE TODAY. HE REFUSED TO MAKE ANY FURTHER COMMENTS INDICATING THAT WAS THE BEST THING HE COULD DO. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
SUBMISSION FROM CONSTITUENT RE PROBLEMS WITH 2012 FORD FOCUS. *SMD THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SEEMED A BIT JERKY AND IT SHIFTED MORE OFTEN. WHEN THE CONSUMER VISITED THE DEALER TO HAVE THE OIL CHANGED AND THE TRIES ROTATED, SHE MENTIONED HER FINDINGS TO THE MECHANIC, AND HE INDICATED THERE WAS AN UPDATE AVAILABLE THEY WOULD PERFORM. WHEN SHE PICKED THE VEHICLE UP LATER THAT DAY, THE PROBLEM WAS MUCH WORSE. THE TRANSMISSION HESITATED AND SHUDDERED EVEN MORE THAN BEFORE THE UPDATE AND THE NOISE WAS SHE WAS HEARING, WHEN THE VEHICLE SHIFTED WAS LOUDER AND SOUNDED AS IF CANS WERE IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONSUMER, TO GIVE IT A WEEK, BECAUSE THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO REPROGRAM ITSELF. A WEEK LATER, THE DEALER CALLED THE CONSUMER, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS STILL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO DEALER. WHEN THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS STILL NO CHANGE. OVER TIME, THE PROBLEM DID NOT RESOLVE ITSELF. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE DEALER, WHERE THEY TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE, AND CLAIMED THE IT WAS PERFORMING WITHIN FORDS SPECIFICATIONS AND THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE THEY COULD DO. THE MECHANIC DID ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A JERK IN THE TRANSMISSION, IT SHUDDERED AND HESITATED, BUT STATED, THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THE NOISE AS OF YET.
