problem #1

May 142014

Focus SE 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 19,335 miles

I bought this car because I had an accident with my 2009 Ford Focus, (which I loved and didn't have any problem with) purchased it in Feb.

In May I began having problems when pulling away from a stop/or light. Went to the dealer and was told this car had a clutch installed by Ford to enhance the performance (ha ha) My dealer replaced the original clutch in July (and I was told there was so much trouble with this clutch that they couldn't fill all the orders for replacement) Now in July 2015 the clutch has gone again :(:(

I contacted my dealer and they still have a stack of orders waiting for the clutch to be replaced since Feb. :(

I sent a complaint to Ford (haven't heard back) but, my salesman said this problem is world wide so may not hear from them. They are supposed to have perfected the problem in the 2015. (but who knows if that is true)

When I purchased my other Focus (2009) it was the first time I had bought a Ford, loved it, and love my 2013 Focus Hatchback, but, now I don't know what to do, looks like the replacement clutch is no better than the first one they put in. :( :(

TO ALL YOU GUYS OUT THERE... YES, THERE IS A CLUTCH IN A CAR THAT IS AUTOMATIC :) :)
