Ford Focus, hesitating when driving, engine stopped while driving and the engine restarted.over period of time, heard strange noises like a loud boom while driving. Happens only when gas level is around half tank. Dealer says there is no recall on the VIN.cut off happened after making a turn also the boom noise. Hesitation usually on slight uphill. Dealer said they will check with Ford company about this. I'm actually afraid to drive it anymore, it could cause an accident.

When trying to accelerate after decreasing speed it shoots up in RPM and will barely move until I let go of gas and allow it some time. It's as if I'm revving my engine with the the brake applied. Its slowly getting worse. I'm up to date on all my maintenance and the car is at approx 17500 miles. I bought the car brand new in August.

I bought this vehicle in October of 2018. The transmission has started to fail, with shuddering, stalling and jumping at accelarations. This is the second Focus model that I have had difficulties with.

The 2018 Ford Focus ti started to give me problems when braking and accelerating, the fist was when taking off at a stop light, the Focus accelerated more when slowing down and braking to a car in front of me, it was like I was hitting gas pedal and brake at the same time. After that on the same day I was driving up a hill and it was accelerating with out pressing on the gas pedal I hit the brakes again and it finally stopped, when I got to my destination I put the car in park and again press the brake it revved up to 3000 rpms and did not stop until I press the run/stop button. The next day I was driving and did a hard stop it about stalled with rpms going down to 400 and fluctuating up to 1200 rpms, with all this was going on my brakes felt soft then hard, the transmission also clicked two times when hard stopping.

My 2018 Ford Focus St is having the same issues as the current campaign 18V735. On occasion the vehicle dips down on rpms as if its going to stall on start up. Its not recorded as current recall on my VIN but I believe the same issue is occurring.

I was driving normally and the engine shut down with no warning (lights on the instrument panel went off) then came back up. Not long after this, I came across an article that suggested a current recall could be to blame for this but my VIN is not included in this recall. It should be. (date of occurrence is approximate.)

- Smithfield, NC, USA

From a complete stop (due to stopped traffic on the highway or while at a stop light), acceleration causes the vehicle to hesitate, rapidly increase RPM, and shudder/shake violently. Happens roughly between 0-35 mph. The issue is becoming more frequent, so I'll be taking the vehicle into the dealership. Mileage is just under 30K.
