I was sold a 2015 Ford Focus SE sedan from a Ford dealership. I didn't know about the on going lawsuit. Tell the year after when the transmission started to act up. Now as of 11/14/20 the steering assit which is electric stop working in mid drive. And it hard to steer the car. After checking the web about this I found out there was a massive recall on the Focus's for the steering assit. The dealer service guy is telling me there was no recall. I found on line tonight that the statue of limitations states that the recall stays open for eight years. It's only been 5 yrs. Since the call was built. The service guys want $2,200 the replace the steering assit. I don't get that much on disability. Please please help me.

Continuous repairs for the transmission and still having issues. There is no confirmation a fix has been manufactured, thus leaving one to believe defective parts are being replaced by more defective parts. Clutch slips, will sporadically jerk upon accelerating from dead stop or quickly needing to brake. Failure to increase speed upon accelerating. Shudders with (non-sudden) braking. Date noted on bottom is approximate guess on when issue was first reported and told "this is normal" by Ford (prior to class action lawsuit that has taken place).

Erratic transmission slipping in lower gears

- Carlisle, OH, USA

Steering seized up at 70K miles. Elec. Rack & pinion needs replacing $2800! this should not happen at 70K miles - extremely dangerous and expensive to fix on a 5 yr old car. Transmission stutters - was recalled, "fixed" and still hesitates occasionally. Never take an intersection for granted because car might stutter - extremely dangerous sometimes. Gas tank recalled - fixed.

I got the clutch fixed under warranty a few weeks ago now the car has the same problem which keeps happening it happened before I keep taking it in too get fixed and the problem keeps getting worse I don't know what it is now. It's a big problem too have for a new car only five years old. It stalled out on me the engine loses power it turned off on me I'm the middle of the intersection which is dangerous. It doesn't shift properly what so ever and I supposedly got the problem fixed. It's becoming a real bother too drive. I maintain the car perfect too have all these problems. I barely made it home in a few occasions with the stalling and the ugly shifting. This car is unsafe and a real hassle too drive, which I keep repairing only too get worse. I suspect the transmission but the clutch has been worked only too get worse

Went into a store, parked in parking spot, came out, got in car, placed car in reverse to back out of spot, car began to back up, then slowed down and stopped with engine still on, . I then placed car in drive, went forward, then attempted to back out again, car backed up, then slowed down again, then jerked really hard. After waiting for the cars parked on the right and left side of me to leave, I placed car in reverse again, it stopped again, I placed car in drive, car accelerated slowly, then gave a hard jerk again, and I was able to drive forward and make a complete circle, and drive forward out of the parking spot a half a mile home. Upon entering my driveway, car began to accelerate and stopped when I applied the brakes immediately.

- Chicago, IL, USA

I had my Ford Focus transmission repaired at least three times so far. As of today, the car is still stalling and jerking. I scheduled a service maintenance today. But, I was turned down by todd ( service rep) and bob (service manager) because the level of effectiveness was not amounted to 250. Therefore, they recommend that I should continue driving the car as is and risk my life and my family. This is not acceptable. My life and my family life is worth more than $3000.
