The customer came in with a no start concern that required the vehicle be jumped each morning. We performed a warranty battery test and determined the battery was not at fault. At that point we proceeded with diagnosis starting with testing the draw on the system. After letting the vehicle sit and disconnecting anything that may draw on the battery we still found a 3 amp draw pulling from the battery. Upon inspection we found the air bag deactivation light lit on the dash with the key off. Checked the wiring diagram found the airbag light is powered out of the BCM. Unplugged connector C2280G draw goes away. Checked all connectors at BCM, found C2280D with washer fluid in the connector and connector burnt from high resistance. Checked connector C137 at the washer pump found the washer pump leaking into connector C137 and pumping all the way to the BCM along circuits crw23 and crw24. Connector C2280D is not serviced as a pigtail, so a complete harness will be needed to complete the repair. A BCM and washer pump will be needed to resolve this concern in its entirety

The contact owns a 2014 Ford Focus. The contact stated that there were multiple failures progressing without warning. The vehicle lost power and began to stall. In addition, the fuel gauge was not displaying the correct fuel amount. Woody anderson Ford (2500 jordan ln nw, huntsville, al 35810, (877) 315-0514) replaced the clutch assembly, but the vehicle continued to stall. The vehicle was also taken to more than one independent mechanic for diagnostic testing, but was not repaired. The vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 18V735000 (fuel system, gasoline), but it was unsure if the failures were related. The part for the recall repair was not available. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

As I was driving, coming off I-70W ramp onto a main city street, my cars "engine fault, service now" indicator came on the screen. My car was still on but would not accelerate. I managed to get to the side of the ramp through the traffic. I attempted to restart my vehicle but was unable. After letting it rest for a few minutes I turned the key again while giving the engine gas. It sputtered on and I was able to make it onto the street. However, it would not accelerate at usual. Reved at 400, I was still only getting up to 20 mph after about 500 ft. It died again once I got under the underpaid, attempting to make it the remaining three minutes to work. After a few more attempts I was able to get it started again and creeped the rest of the way to work with my hazards on. While working I called my dealership for a tow, since my husband carries an extended warranty and roadside assistance. After having it towed they informed us that it was the wiring harness an that it would not be covered under our warranty. They also then told us that the tow would not be covered either since we did not use the appropriate company for roadside. My husband purchased this vehicle six weeks ago and we are now facing a $1400 repair and a $300 diagnostic and tow. Aftevsome research my husband found that 2014 Ford Focus St had a recall for the exact issue. I feel that the fault may be for more that just the sports addition.

1.) while in driving motion my car acts like it stalls or gets stuck in a gear or has a problem shifting. 2.) while in reverse motion my car sometimes wants to act like it can't go in reverse, like I can't back up or drive. I restart the car sometimes & then it's fine.

Entire electrical sync system has shut down and no longer functions. While the sync was going out, the speakers would crackle and make loud, startling pop sounds. This caused jerky driving as they would pop without any notice, even if the sync system was turned off. Recently, the wind shield wipers turned on and were sporadically increasing/decreasing in speed and would not turn off. The car was on (not the engine) and parked when the wipers turned on. Attempted to turn the car off, reset by opening the doors, and turning the car back on. They paused and then started up again once the car was driving on city streets. The speakers popping and the radio malfunction occurs while driving, while parked, when the car is on, and when it is off. This problem has been getting worse and worse over the past year.

Takata recall amongst the known recalls, is a lot of unsaid issues with this vehicle. It started with the tcm. When I had the dealer fix it, the codes were showing ok but the vehicle continued to display the same issues when trying to accelerate. For some reason when driving, it seems as if I'm driving a manual vehicle instead of a automatic. The clutch is giving me problems. It tend to get stuck in the hill assist mode. A few weeks ago my car just died. It seemed to be the battery. When replaced it was ok for a day or so. I had it checked to see if my alternator was bad. It both places stayed it was fine. Periodically it would stop. It didn't seem like there where any determining factors on when (like cold or hot weather). So I drove it less. One day when driving, going 46 mph, it just shut down. The screen showed 'not in park', starting system fault and it would not allow me to place the vehicle in neutral. It then began to start and stop whenever. The grounds were checked, the starter, the alternator, the fuse and orhers. My horn would sometimes go out for days, up to weeks. When trying to start the car, it would eventually flash 'normal mode'. it's so many things going on here! I fear all the time with this car. When the tcm started acting up, it stopped while driving too. I'm a mother of 5, I've has this car for 4 years as for the past 2yrs I've been living in fear of my children and I dying in this car. I've spent more money buying rentals and having others assist with transportation when this car acts up, I could've paid half of my last 2yrs off. This is not fair because everyone doesn't have the ability to just get up a go trade in a car or walk away. I've been having different problems for over 2 yrs now but when it shut off while driving on the highway, it was in the beginning of September 2018 (this month) it got worst and I had it towed to the dealer.

The contact owns a 2014 Ford Focus SE. While the vehicle was stationary and while driving various speeds, the windshield wipers failed to operate. While the vehicle was idling at a red light, the windshield wipers spontaneously began moving back and forth. Three months ago, while driving various high speeds on the freeway, both windshield wipers spontaneously activated. Once the contact arrived at his destination, the contact turned off the vehicle and the failure recurred. The contact stated that the failure occurred continuously until the fuse to the windshield wipers was removed. A dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 49,000.

My car would stall when I was turning or driving, but at first I could turn it off and back on and it would run just fine. Then my car started showing me that I had a full tank of gas when I didn't. I found out that the issue is the gas tank, a $450 fix. These plastic gas tanks are collapsing on itself, my friend had a 2012 Focus and was told that the gas tank was shrinking and that it would keep shrinking until the gas tank was almost completely gone. This needs to be a recall!!!

"door ajar" warning appears for front passenger door even when door is correctly closed. Leads to a cascade of other issues, biggest safety issue would be doors may all refuse to lock at various times. Also runs various lights after parking vehicle, might affect battery charge. I believe the door closed sensor is failing, this is the lock mechanism that was replaced in an earlier recall. Problem began about a month ago, at around 33,000 miles. My door latches were replaced in December 2017 at 21,000 miles.
