I was in a lane beginning to merge onto the highway. this car was to my left and did not see me in their blind spot trying to merge right too early. the car behind me was following too close not allowing me to be able to slam on my breaks. if my horn worked i could have alerted the driver that a car was in their blind spot. luckily no accident occurred, but i'd rather one not happen period. my horn has been going in and out for quite a while. i have changed the fuse a numerous amount of times and got the plugs checked. no one can tell me what is wrong. this car almost hit me due to this horn issue. also, i can not pass vehicle inspection due to my horn not working and the security sound not sounding when it is being locked.
When first accelerating from 0 mph, the car will struggle to shift out of first gear. it constantly jumps and jerks between 10-20 mph. it feels like someone who is newly learning how to drive a stick shift is shifting the car. as an automatic, it should not be having these problems. this is the second time this has occurred with the car. the first time the computer had to be completely replaced.
Breaks failed. was driving straight on a city road that is also deemed a highway and was approaching a stop light. tried to stop going approx 15 mph felt a click and then nothing, brakes did not engage.
My 2012 ford focus transmission was repaired under the previous recall. the transmission started to act up in the past few days. it's stuttering and the jerking moving from a stop. my brother who is a mechanic says it's probably the clutch again. is it covered under the current recall. it has 136500 miles on it. i need the car for both my jobs. i'll not paying $2000 for a new clutch.
I was at a stop light on a main route in a city and the light turned green i stepped on the gas pedal and the car bucked then stalled again, it was recalled and said it was fixed but as far as can tell itfs not
The radio on the stock focus is dangerous. the random static and loud noises coming from the radio is a safety hazard it can sound like an explosion. i got anxiety so bad i had to remove my stock radio harness from the back of the radio.
It seems as the transmission needs reprogram the body control module with updated software it seems to be stuck on s instead of normal drive and it has problems when accelerate and shift
Radio randomly screeches at a very high frequency. sounds like a gun shot at first then ear piercing screeching. even does it when the car is off. seems to multiple complaints regarding this on this particular vehicle. there is no warning when this occurs and it does not do it every day. major safety hazard when you are driving down the road and this noise comes out of nowhere. when you shut the car off the noise continues. even continues after removing the key and locking the doors.
When i make a stop and try to move the vehicle, i feel vibrations, lost of power. i did not know that ford recalled the vehicle to solve the problem. i just called but ford refuse to fix. the agent to whom i spoke, said that the mileage is above 100 000 miles. the current mileage is 173 000 miles but i have been driving with this problem for long time.
My car is a ford focus 2012 i was in the highway and i couldn't accelerate . i lost speed while i was in the highway .my car was fine all week i ran without any problem no light appear at the dashboard .when i couldn't accelarate in the highway a message appear for the first time transmission malfuction.
2012 focus s a majority of the time from a stop vehicle starts jerking and i don't own a stick shift. also as it's jerking the rpms go really high as if i need to shift idk but also every time i put it in park it rolls about quarter-incput it in park it rolls about a half an inch or more then i hear a click well it's more like a tin can sound i hate it i hope it's not my transmission
Power steering went out while traveling.
'takata recall' i was driving and in the middle of the road on watt ave and the car went from 45miles to 0 in seconds on a green light and i got hit by the car behind me,was barely moving a light came on the car saying 'transmission malfunction service now'
Scraping noise coming from electronic steering component. similar issues described on line. seems like a widespread problem.
When i entered the vin number for my vehicle it said that there were no recalls for this vehicle?? i have already had to return the vehicle to the dealership to have several manufacturing recall problems addressed!!?? i should have received a recall letter about the clutch problem in this vehicle! why have not received anything? why does your system not recognize that this vehicle dies have recalls! how can zi get a letter from the manufacturer so have tried everything!
