My 2014 Ford Focus has a automatic clutch problem. It was replaced 2 years ago by the dealership and is now having same issues only worse. As I am driving the car won't go faster as I'm passing a car and when I stop at a traffic light it jumps as I go. Unsafe. I don't feel safe driving.

Problems I have had was slipping, bucking, jerking, and suddenly accelerate. In addition, the transmissions caused delayed acceleration and delays in downshifts, cuts off in traffic.

I was driving down the street, and my car lost power in the middle of traffic. I couldn't do anything except let the car coast to the nearest side street. This is the first time it has gotten to this particular degree. Before this happened, I was on my way home and as I was leaving the stop light, the car hesitated and took a while before the speed would pick up. It also did some weird things that I can't explain, but know that it shouldn't have happened. After this first incident, I immediately contacted Ford and complained about the problem. I was advised that the car had two extended warranties and I should take it into a authorized dealer and have the vehicle diagnosed and that if it was a transmission module issue or something to that effect, it would be covered under the warranty and the repairs would be done at no cost. I took the vehicle to a Ford dealership in Tennessee and was told that my vehicle had an branded title and the dealership refused to put the car on the machine unless Ford corporate called them directly with an authorization code. I called Ford corporate back and explained to them what the issue was and the agent put me on hold and called the dealership and gave him all the information he needed to start the work on my vehicle. About three hours later, I was contacted by the dealership and was told to pick up my vehicle because someone from Ford had contacted him and said that my warranty was no good. I emailed the CEO at Ford corporation, and after two weeks, still haven't heard back from him. I called the corporate office again and was told the same thing as before, which is that my car has two extended warranties and the work should have been done because one warranty covers the transmission whether it has a branded title or not. Now, I have a car sitting up, unnecessary expenses and a dent in my back bumper.

Back at the end of June, first part of July I had a check engine light on and then the next day it was off but some stupid "my key came on and not it regulates my speed and volume. I am not paying over $200 to have it removed. But the most important thing is the clutch on my transmission is out and Ford won't replace it for free and I dont have the money to fix it. I believe Ford should fix it for free since they can't build good transmissions.

Engine stopped while in motion on freeway. Entire electrical system and acceleration would not power back on. Steering and brakes were still operational. After pulling over, the car will not turn on, and doors will not remain locked.

Clutch was repaired and now a part of the new clutch needs replacement and they don't want to help me! I know it's part of the recall!! now I can't use my car because I have to pay $2K out of pocket to get it fixed! when I know it's the recall. It's the clutch!!! also.. the attached work orders.. were not given to me when I purchase the car. But they were in the car manual book. And it's says the car was already having transmission problems at 15 thousand miles! if I would've known. I would have never purchased this vehicle! this car is a lemon!!!

I purchased this vehicle in 2016. A week later I took it back to the dealership, they drove it said nothing was wrong. 8 months later I took it back over the transmission, they drove it, said nothing was wrong, about 7 months ago I took it in over the recall on the door locks, requested the transmission be checked as well. Nothing was done on the transmission. I just learned from the Ford Motor Company about the extended warranty on the transmission module and clutch assembly. The dealership did not tell me about this. I now sit with this vehicle with no way to get it to the dealership, and no offer of help from them. They want me to have it towed and pay $ 110 dollars to put on a machine. I am on a fixed income and can not afford to do this. This issue should have been addressed one of the three times I took it in. The transmission has jumped, jerks, lunges, reduces speed pull out since I bought it. Now it goes to neutral while driving and you have to pull off and put it in park, wait and put back in drive and hope it catches. It's to dangerous to drive now so it's parked.

Repeatedly the speakers will randomly pop very loudly, even when radio is off, and the speakers will not function again until car is restarted. The loud noise is very startling and dangerous. It occurs at irregular intervals, when moving and not, and with radio on or not.

It clicks constantly - I have start the car with a battery charger although I just put a new battery in the car, I have had the transmission clutch and parts replaced twice. - its still slipping out of gear it sound like grinding metal. Im so done with this car.

- Houston, TX, USA

Was driving and heard a very loud pop and crack noises. There was no audio and the car wouldn't let me turn the radio on nor off. While this was happening the pop and crack noises still continued. I did some research and it turns out these Ford radio are known to do this and I just want to report it as a safety issue due to the fact that when my radio is off the noises are still going on and they are very loud. This could cause other people accidents and is very irresponsible on Ford behalf.

I've not had a fuel gauge since my 4th warranty repair (turbo replacement turned catastrophic and incurred warranted engine replacement as they blew it in shop and had it for almost three months) and I am not happy at all. And I am now gonna have to go back and get it fixed as this is dangerous for me. I keep a gallon of fuel I'N my car, so I'm basically huffing fumes all the dang time im in my car.. I must keep a gallon of fuel in the car due to the sudden stalls and the subsequent crank, wont start issues. Up until after my car was "repaired".. I didn't have issue until id done run out of fuel and or run out of outa fuel and stalled in most precarious places whilst in motion and driving down the road. I'd run out of fuel and my car would sputter and die. I've walked up to 12 miles to get to a gas station luckily. I am not cool with this [xxx] cause I bought it with lil to no mileage and new off the lot.... [xxx] has a ring to it if anyone could help... to an erratic at best case I've been stranded with no phone, no food nor water at least three times. And they think I'm gonna bring it in for service and allow them to screw me over again? don't think I have a lot of trust for Ford no mo.... I hope they stop playing around with people's lives as seemingly expendables and wasting our valuable time and money. I've lost a job from it and that's no joke.

- Jamestown, NY, USA

The car was difficult to drive from day one, hard to steer and keep on the road, along with the transmission problem, had it checked several times and told there wasn't a problem with the steering, then it it started making a grinding sound when the wheel was turned, kept getting worse until the car was not drive able, and it was stored. The transmission was recalled, but told the steering is not. Ford says it needs a new rack and pinon but is now out of warranty, as our complaint we turned in when it was under warranty had been wiped out, due to a new computer system. It only has 32,000 miles on it, and now they want $2200 to replace the rack and pinon.

Car shudders when starting from a step position to an accelerated speed. Example: Sitting at a stop light and when the light turns to green and gas pedal applied the car shudders or does not move. When it doesn't move forward when applying the gas pedal it feels as though the wheels are just spinning. At other times the car will automatically jerk forward when not intended. At other times the car doesn't move forward when you apply gas the pedal. I have had the transmission replaced 4 times. I have had several software updates. I have had seals replaced. Milage as to date is 31400
