I PURCHASED THE CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED FORD IN 2014 AND IN 2016 HAD TO IT IN FOR SERVICE ON A CLUTCH ASY- SENSOR TURBI ISSUE. AFTER A FEW WEEKS THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED. THE AFOREMENTIONED HAPPENED AGAIN AND WAS TAKEN IN FOR THE 2ND TIME FOR THE CLUTCH ASY-SENSOR TURBI ISSUE. ON 11/17/2017 IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE SAME ISSUES FOR THE 3RD TIME, THIS TIME I WAS TOLD ITS OUT OF WARRANTY. I EXPLAINED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD THIS ISSUES TWO PRIOR TIMES AND THE CLUTCH SYSTEM WAS DEFECTIVE. I WAS THEN TOLD TO TAKE THE MATTER UP WITH CORPORATE. I ALSO LOCATED A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST FORD FOR THE SAME ISSUES AM FACING. PLEASE HELP HOLD FORD RESPONSIBLE FOR INSTALLING DEFECTIVE CLUTCH SYSTEMS IN THEIR VEHICLES.

UPON BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, I ATTEMPTED TO TURN MY STEERING WHEEL TO DIRECT MY VEHICLE IN THE DIRECTION OF TRAFFIC. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT EASILY TURN, AND A GRINDING NOISE COULD BE HEARD INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. AS I PULLED FORWARD THE STEERING WOULD STICK, RESISTING CHANGES IN DIRECTION, THEN BREAKING LOOSE ON OVERCORRECTING.

CAR HAS ALREADY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING TWICE ,A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. I TOOK IT TOPATRICK ST. FORD, IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN IN PARKING LOT, HAD TO PUSH IT INTO GARAGE. THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED A SENSOR RECALL. DID NOTHING TO THE UNBELIEVABLE SHAKING AND SHUTTERING RECALL. 3 WEEKS AGO WHEN I LEFT WORK, I NOTICED INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS BLACK, SAID NO GAS, 0 MPH, AND SO FORTH. BLINKERS WOULDN'T WORK ON INSIDE BUT THE DRIVER BEHIND ME COULD SEE ME SIGNALING FROM BEHIND ME. PULLED INTO CONVENIENT STORE , TURNED CAR OFF, WENT INSIDE, CAME BACK AND CAR WOULDN'T START AT ALL. HAD IT TOWED TO SAME BERTE WOLFE FORD , THEY TOLD ME IT WAS ELECTRICAL WIRING ISSUES AND IT WOULD BE 380$ , THEY CALLED BACK NEXT DAY AND SAID 500$ MORE. I TOLD HIM TO STOP AND I WOULD PAY THO 380$ AND HAVE IT LOOKED AT SOMEWHERE ELSE BUT IF I DID AND OTHER PLACE SAID IT WAS FORD'S ACCOUNTABILITY I WOULD BE BACK. SALES MANAGER J.C. ASSURED ME HE WOULD REIMBURSE ME EVERYTHING IF THAT WAS THE CASE. I TOOK IT TO COPLEYS IN CHAS WV AND JAY RUSS HOOKED UP HIS COMPUTER AND SAID , LOOKS LIKE FORD OWES YOU. THEY SHOULD OF FIXED THE PROBLEM LAST TIME IT WAS WITH THEM AND HE COULDN'T WORK ON IT BECAUSE IT WAS FORD PARTS AND SHOULD BEEN FIXED FREE. I NEED MY CAR FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED. THEY HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THIS AND KEEP DENYING IT. IT'S MOST COMPLAINED CAR OF THAT YR. MULTIPLE FSA'S AND ELECTRICAL RECALL ALONG WITH SHUTTER LAWSUIT. NEW CARS ON LIST INCLUDE MY YEAR , 6 SPEED AUTO TRANSMISSION AND MICHIGAN ASSEMBLY PLANT. JUST FROM ME MENTIONING THOSE THINGS TO J.C. , HE TOOK MY BILL FROM 380$ TO 240$ . SEEMED FISHY TO ME , THAT'S WHY I WANTED A SECOND OPINION AND TOOK IT ELSEWHERE AND I FOUND OUT PRETTY MUCH WHAT I EXPECTED. CAR WAS 13000$ PAID OFF AND HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A SHUTTERING POSSIBLE DEATHTRAP ON WHEELS. I'M JUST FORTUNATE IT HASN'T SHUTDOWN AND LOST STEERING GOING ON A BUSY INTERSTATE.REF: TSB16-0044

VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY TURN OFF WHILE RUNNING. HAPPENED TOO MANY TIMES WHILE ON THE FREEWAY THAT ALMOST CAUSE ACCIDENTS, EVEN ON STREET FROM THE STOP LIGHTS IT WOULD JUST TURN OFF. ONE IS ISSUE IS THE FAULTY FUEL GAUGE, IT WOULD SAY THAT THE FUEL TANK IS FULL BUT HALFWAY EMPTY OR EMPTY. DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND OTHER OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE OF THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF WHILE RUNNING. ACCORDING TO SOME REPORTS, OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD TO REPLACED THE FUEL TANK THAT WAS DEFORMED DUE TO THE ISSUE OF FAULTY FUEL GAUGE. OTHER REPORTED OF REPLACING FUEL PUMP, PURGE VALVE AND OR EMISSION CANISTER. I CONTACTED FORD ABOUT THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S SOMETHING THEY DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT BUT THEY KNOW THERE AN ISSUE. THEY WON'T GIVE ME A DIRECT ANSWER TO MY QUESTIONS. SO FAR, I HAVE NOT HEARD ANY REPORTS OF FATALITY ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT WE WERE CLOSE, AS RECENTLY AS YESTERDAY MORNING WHEN MY COUSIN WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH AN 18-WHEELER BEHIND HIM WHEN THE CAR'S ENGINE JUST SHUTS OFF. THIS HAPPENS QUITE A FEW TIMES. WHAT'S WORST ABOUT THIS IS FORD WON'T EVEN TALK TO THE OWNERS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I TRIED TO GET SOME ANSWER FROM THEM BUT THEY WON'T SAY A WORD. IT'S FRUSTRATING! THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND UNDER 75K MILES, HAVING THIS ISSUE THAT WOULD COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX. IT'S NOT THE OWNERS FAULT BUT MANUFACTURER'S FAULT OR ISSUE. THEY NEED TO OWN UP ON THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOME GETS KILLED ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN IS FORD GOING TO STEP ON THIS? HOW ABOUT NHTSA, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS? WE, THE OWNERS NEED ANSWER AND WE NEED SOLUTION FROM FORD ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WHILE NO ONE IS DEAD YET, NOW IS THE TIME TO ASSESS THIS PROBLEM. NHTSA, PLEASE HELP US FIX THIS PROBLEM.

FOR OVER A YEAR NOW MY CAR HAS RANDOMLY STOPPED GOING INTO REVERSE, SHUTTERING WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT, HARD SHIFTING (OR SLAMMING INTO GEAR), LURCHING AND OR JUMPING FORWARD (OR BACKWARDS), SLIPPING OUT OF GEAR, FAILING TO ENGAGE IN A GEAR, AND ALSO HAS SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY/ FREEWAY AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. MY CAR HAS 82,000 MILES ON IT AND IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT FORD REFUSES TO SAY ANYTHING IS WRONG. THEY DID REPLACE A SHIFT FORK, BUT THEY CLAIM THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. I GET THE TRANSMISSION FAULT LIGHT AND RANDOMLY A MESSAGE ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING WILL POP UP AND IT TELLS ME TO PULL OVER SAFELY AND WAIT 5 MINUTES. I AM BEING CHARGED (BASICALLY TAXED) $500 A MONTH TO HAVE A CAR THAT I CANT TRUST TO TAKE ME ANYWHERE AND I REFUSE TO TAKE MY NIECE AND NEPHEW IN IT BECAUSE IT IS SO DANGEROUS TO OPERATE WHEN EVERY TIME I GET IN IT- IT DOES THESE ABOVE THINGS. I REALLY WISH THAT FORD WOULD STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING BECAUSE MINE IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. BUT THIS DISABLED COMBAT VETERAN DOESN'T SEE FORD DOING ANYTHING BUT COUNTING ALL MY MONEY THEY KEEP TAKING.

I NOTICED THAT MY CAR WAS SHUTTERING WHILE UP SHIFTING AT SLOW SPEEDS IN TRAFFIC DURING THE LAST WEEK. NOW THE TRANSMISSION FAULT LIGHT IS ON AND IT HAS DIFFICULTY SHIFTING INTO HIGH GEAR. I READ ONLINE THAT FORD EXTENDED IT'S WARRANTY ON THIS MODEL FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM BUT WHEN I CALLED THE SERVICE CENTER THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS A SPECIFIC WARRANTY AND THEY I MIGHT NOT QUALIFY OR BE COVERD AND THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. THE INTERNET IS FULL OF 2013 FORD FOCUS'S WITH THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM. I NEED TO FIND OUT IF THIS QUALIFIES BECAUSE I NEED THIS CAR FOR WORK AND CANNOT AFFORD $2000 TO FIX A FAULTY FORD TRANSMISSION. I KNOW THAT THIS LETTER MAY BE PREMATURE BUT I'M WORRIED ABOUT TRANSPORTATION TO WORK AND LACK OF MONEY TO FIX THIS CAR WHICH IS FINANCED.

BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY, STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT, THE POWER STEERING DEFAULT LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE PAST. MY CAR HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT. I AM MORE THAN TICKED OFF BECAUSE THIS IS NOT THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR. LAST YEAR IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION COMPUTER THAT WENT OUT. THERE WAS A RECALL AND IT WAS REPAIRED, BUT I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION PERFORMANCE. THEY SAY BUY AMERICAN MADE, BUT I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER FORD OF ANY KIND.

NHTSA ODI 11035172

THE FUEL GAGE ON MY FORD FOCUS DOES NOT READ CORRECTLY. I'VE RAN OUT OF GAS MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN THE MILES TO E READ 40,72 AND EVEN 88. SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR THE GAS LIGHT NEVER COMES ON BEFORE I RUN OUT OF GAS. I CALLED FORD AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY A $90 FEE FOR THEM JUST TO ACCESS WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR. I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE POSTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. IT DEFINITELY SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. THIS PROBLEM ALONE HAS CAUSED ME TO CONSTANTLY USE ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE DUE TO RANDOMLY RUNNING OUT OF FUEL IN AREAS I WAS UNFAMILIAR WITH, WHICH COULD DEFINITELY BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. I'M NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE AT NIGHT ALONE BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE IF I'LL MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION WITHOUT RUNNING OUT OF GAS.

STEERING REQUIRES/REQUIRED LOTS OF MUSCLE TO MAINTAIN ANY FORM OF ACTIVE DRIVER INTENDED STEERING CHANGES. IT MAY FAIL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 70 OR ON VEHICLE STARTUP. FORTUNATELY, WE WERE ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND FIND A SAFE PLACE TO STOP AND FORTUNATELY RESET THE POWER ASSIST WITHOUT ANYONE BEING INJURED OR KILLED. RESTARTING VEHICLE RESET THE PS ASSIST MODULE FOR A FEW MONTHS BUT THE SYSTEM IS NOW FULLY NONWORKING. THE STEERING GOES OUT WHENEVER IT DESIRES.

THIS WILL ALSO REQUIRE A VEHICLE ALIGNMENT AND POSSIBLE COMPUTER RESET AND RE-FLASH ACCORDING TO THE SHOP. COST WILL BE AT LEAST $2500. THANKS FORD FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR YOUR CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND OFFLOADING YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AND COST FOR YOUR POOR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN TO THE VEHICLE OWNER. POOR ENGINEERING AND LACK OF WILLINGNESS TO FIX A PROBLEM IS SURE TO GAIN YOU A LOYAL FOLLOWING. I AM ALMOST ASHAMED TO SAY I AM FROM THE DETROIT AREA AND HAVE BEEN A PROPONENT OF BUYING FROM THE BIG THREE. I WILL UPLOAD THE REPAIR RECEIPT ONCE THE REPAIR ACTION IS COMPLETED.
