I saw that there was a customer satisfaction program (17B32) that stats that the model car made in a specific plant and within a certain time frame were made with the wrong head gasket that will end up failing, I checked with the Ford customer support and they confirmed that my vehicle was effected since it was made at that time. The vehicles VIN doesn't show any recall and they said I would receive one but never did, the recall was to expire in May 31 2019 and my vehicle cant be inspected under the recall unless I pay for it out of pocket since it expired.

My 2016 Ford Focus SE gives me great concern when driving as the transmission consistently skips/jerks while accelerating. There were 2 separate instances where I have driven on the freeway and my car has skipped gears, causing change of speeds and nearly had 2 accidents on the freeway. My most recent one was right before I decided to file a complaint. I have been to the Ford service center right before my warranty closed and requested they fix, however was told there is nothing wrong and it operates properly.

Earlier in January, I was driving down interstate 70 from Kansas City to St. Louis at the rate of 77 mph. All of a sudden the car dings and sends a message on the dash "engine failure" and the car literally shuts down. I had no control over the car, no lights, no brakes, nothing! luckily I got to the shoulder of the road safely and finally came to a stop. I put the car in park and turned the key off. Still nothing... I waited about 5 minutes and then turned the car back on and thankfully it started. I drove it to the nearest place to have them run a diagnostic test and nothing came up. Finally got it home. It's not done this again, but now it runs rough. Like really rough. I've had the transmission clutch fixed once already. Luckily it was still under warranty. I will be contacting my local Ford dealer about this issue. Was unaware it was under recall.

When I first bought the car it started making noise when I drove it I took it in they said they fixed the problems it was still under warranty. After a couple of weeks it started making the same noises so when I had time a couple of months later I took it in again and they told me it was the transmission and that my warranty was not active anymore. It made the same noises the first time I took it in and they never said it was the transmission it was a wheel problem. I'm asking for help on what to do thanks.

The vehicle shudders when accelerating and does not slow down properly when decelerating. This condition becomes worse on hotter days and when the engine is hot. Also, when taking off from a complete stop the car shudders the worse. The car also feels unsafe when trying to slow down. It feels as if the car is staying in a higher gear when letting off the accelerator pedal and not downshifting properly.
