Our car was looked at july 2019 and the recall was not fixed but they knew about it from your records. and we have been having trouble on accelerating spitting and sputtering and today me and my family were out shopping and we were driving out of the parking lot and the car just would not go the gas was not working we couldnt move and we turned it off and starting driving again and the same thing happened and the check engine light was on and it wasnt on before this. i am very mad that this recall was over looked because my familys life couldnt had been taken if this happened on a freeway or interstate. so we had to pay for a tow to the dealership johnson city ford, tn 37602 and they were closed today but tomorrow i am going to confront them about this and im reaching out to u guys to insure this will get fixed of no charge and fixed right! thank u.
Car almost stalls from stop to go in first gear. and the engine rattles when coming to a stop.
Automatic transmission is stuttering upon acceleration, sometimes idles below 1000 rpm when stationary, and shifts rough when driving. pretty much the same transmission problems that the older models with the same transmission had.
Power loss to drive wheels starting from stops makes vehicle feel unsafe in traffic. dual clutch powershift transmission shudders, slips, and sometimes clunks in first & into second gears under nominal acceleration. vehicle has only 22,000 miles. ford focus dual clutch powershift transmission problems remain. and this is the second transmission replaced by ford at only 17,000 miles.
This started about two week after we bought the car. the car had 18890 miles on it when we bought it on 10/23/2019.the car will slip in to neutral between shifts and will not go over 45miles an hour. sometimes it will not go over 25 miles an hour.
Bought this vehicle on october 28 2019 and the next day the car stall and was almost hit from behind while carring a patient i was driving to the doctors office on october 29 2019 took car back they said they had fix the issue then the next date it rain it all got wet on the passager side took to dealship they had the care since nov 4 pick up on nov 22 and car still has same issue and it was stationary when getting wet and in motion when it stall and it is a risk because i carry patients in my car every day it my job and dealship has yet to give me paper invoice on repairs done to car and i call them and speak with them they say im going to call you back and they dont its sames ford dealship in kingsville texas and i do have video on the day it was getting wet in side and you can see how the water was dripping
The vehicle is exhibiting the same issues as have been documented on 2012-2016 ford focus models equipped with the infamous dps6 transmission (consult detroit free press coverage on the dps6 situation, example https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2019/09/13/ford-focus-fiesta-transmission-class-action-stalled-dps-6/2312926001/). during gentle acceleration from stop, the vehicle frequently will shudder violently during acceleration, as if the transmission is hunting between gears. this does not occur at highway speeds, or during acceleration when the car is already in motion and at normal driving speeds (35-40mph). at time of purchase, i was told the 2017 models did not have the dps6 unit. after a previous incident, it was taken to john bleakley ford in lithia springs ga (now known as lithia springs ford, and the dealer from which the vehicle was purchased), where the service advisor noted that the transmission was indeed exhibiting similar behavior, but for a different reason. the repair lasted a few months before starting again a few months ago. i believe i have a vehicle that has a dps6, or that this redesigned transmission has a near-identical design fault to the dps6, and thus the vehicle should be recalled or deemed defective.
Car vibrates when accelerating in lower gears-going from standstill to 1st gear experiences a severe vibration.
While i'm driving on freeway or regular highway the car just dies out for no apparent reason almost got into a bad wreck because of it had to coast it off the road out of way from traffic so i wouldn't get hit it's done this more then once took it in and they reset the computer it was ok for 2 days then did the exact same thing just died while i was driving on the highway the whole car turned off so had to put in park and then start took a few times to start then finally started and left but this keeps happening definitely not good for vehicle that only has 44 thousand miles on it .
The transmission shudders and vibrates while changing gears, also hesitates while changing gears, makes chattering noises while changing gears and is slow to accelerate at times. ford has already changed the clutch and it seemed to solve the problem, however it is now doing the same thing.
Transmission gears are rough, slipping, jerks a little and transmission overheats and can't drive. looses power when driving. there is a recall for this vehicle but i was told only the cars that in a manufactured area or a group are in recall. makes no sense because we have the exact same car that is being recalled and we weren't in that group or manufactured area so our vehicle won't be repaired. something is seriously wrong with this whole issue. it's the same problem as the ones in group that are being recalled. why isn't our car being recalled, it's a safety issue also... this seams very wrong. our car is only two years old and we don't have that kind of money to fix on our own...
Purchased 9/2018.care has been shaking likes its going to fall apart ever since then. . i have a manual transmission and car grunts when picking up speed like i have a clutch shift and makes this scratching noise when i shift from park to reverse. or reverse to drive. also when i barely tap the breaks its stop so suddenly the jilt forces me forward.. today 9/13/19 the transmission fault message came on. and went off. then when i start the car back up to check systems.. the message system says all systems normal and the light didnt come back on after driving it around, shift from reverse to drive, and shutting of and starting up car 3 different times.
I have felt on several occasions the car shake and seem to struggle to take off from a stop to go. seems to increasingly get worse
Car started having transmission problems, jerking and problems with shifting into a gear. it does this while driving and i drive for lyft and uber and it has scared customers . i'm scared for my safety and others. there is a recall on exact same car but ours was not in the 'manufacture group only certain cars. ford knows of these problems but they just don't care .. this car is only 2 years old .
2017 ford focus shudders and vibrates while in motion and while stationary. vehicle also has hesitation and slow response when accelerating. vehicle is current on all recalled services however the issue is still present.
