What 2,584 owners told NHTSA about the 2014 Ford Focus Bev

SINCE I PURCHASED MY DAUGHTER A USED CERTIFIED FORD FOCUS FROM THE DEALERSHIP I'VE HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE SHIFTING PROPERLY. THE WORST CASE IS WHEN AT HIGH SPEED (60 MPH OR MORE) THE CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN GOES INTO 1ST OR 2ND GEAR CAUSING A TREMENDOUS JERK THAT ALMOST CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO GO OUT OF CONTROL. JUST YESTERDAY (14MAR21) I WAS DRIVING THRU A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON I10 THRU THE TOWN OF BENSON ARIZONA AT A SPEED OF 60 MPH WHEN THE TREMENDOUS JERK HAPPENED AGAIN WITH THE RPM SHOOTING UP TO 6,000 ON MY TACHOMETER FOR 5 TO 7 SECONDS. THE NORMAL RPM AT A STEADY SPEED OF 60 SHOULD BE 2,200 RPM. THE TRACTOR TRAILER RIG DRIVING BEHIND ME ALMOST RAN INTO MY FORD FOCUS, BUT LUCKILY THE DRIVER HAD HIS EYES ON WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE AT THE NEXT EXIT, DROVE ONTO A TWO LANE COUNTRY ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO REPEAT THE DOWNSHIFT PROBLEM FIVE TIMES, BUT AT THE REDUCED SPEED OF 40 MPH. THE JERK WAS STILL THERE BUT NOT AS HARSH OR UNCONTROLLING AS AT 60 MPH. THE NORMAL RPM AT 40 WHEN ACCELERATING SHOULD BE 2400 RPM, BUT AT THE TIME OF THE DOWNSHIFT PROBLEM IT SHOT UP TO 4500 RPM. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE FORD DEALERSHIP REPAIR FACILITY NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE SEPTEMBER OF 2020 AND STILL IS NOT FIXED. IT IS THERE AS I AM TYPING THIS REPORT. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE FORD FOCUS CARS HAVING ANY KIND OF TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, OR ANY INFORMATION REGARDING A RECALL OR CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT DUE TO THE FORD FOCUS TRANSMISSION. MY HIGHEST CONCERN IS FOR THE SAFETY OF MY DAUGHTER WHO IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER AND ANYBODY ELSE ON THE ROAD WHO COULD POSSIBLY BE HURT OR KILLED BECAUSE OF A CAR THAT CAN GO OUT OF CONTROL DUE TO THE DOWNSHIFTING OF THE GEARS WHILE AT HIGH SPEED. I BELIEVE THAT I HAVE THE FORD FOCUS THAT CAN PROVE THAT THIS AUTOMOBILE SHOULD NOT BE ON THE ROAD.

THE TRANSMISSION WOULD SLIP BADLY, EVEN TOTALLY DISENGAGE. I WAS GETTING ON A VERY BUSY ROAD AND ACCELERATED AND SUDDENLY THE CAR DECELERATED; THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST REAR ENDED ME, HONKED HIS HORN, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO. IT SLIPPED NOT AS BADLY LAST YEAR AND FORD FIXED IT, SAYING IT WAS UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION, BUT NOW THEY SAY IT IS NOT COVERED AND WILL COST $2200 TO FIX. THERE ARE PAGES AND PAGES ON THE INTERNET TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. IT IS DANGEROUS!

THE TRANSMISSION IN THIS VEHICLE SHUTTERS, SLIPS, LOSES POWER OR LOSES ACCELERATION WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A DEAD STOP, OR ACCELERATING IN SPEED WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. THIS HAPPENS FROM A DEAD STOP, WHEN ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC TO MERGE, CHANGE LANES OR PASS A CAR; PRETTY MUCH ANYTIME THE GAS PEDAL IS PRESSED THE CAR WILL LURCH AND/OR SHUDDER AND/OR LOSE POWER, RESULTING IN MANY NEAR MISSES AND ALMOST ACCIDENTS IN THE TIME THAT WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED USED MID-2015. BY NOVEMBER 2015 THE FIRST REPLACEMENT OF THE CLUTCHES WAS DONE. IN MARCH OF 2018, JUST A FEW MONTHS OUT OF THE TWO-YEAR WARRANTY, THE CLUTCHES NEEDED REPLACING AGAIN. IT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR US, SO WE OPTED TO HAVE THE SOFTWARE FLASHED INSTEAD. UNDER THE EXTENDED PARTS COVERAGE OFFERED BY FORD, THE CLUTCHES WERE REPLACED FOR A SECOND TIME IN DECEMBER OF 2019. BY JANUARY 2021 THE CAR NEEDED NEW CLUTCHES FOR THE THIRD TIME. THE DEALERSHIP CONTACTED FORD TO SEE IF THEY COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, AND FORD REFUSES BECAUSE THE CAR AND THE CLUTCHES ARE SLIGHTLY OUT OF WARRANTY, THE CLUTCHES ONLY OUT BY A MONTH, EVEN THOUGH THIS SIX-YEAR-OLD CAR IS ON ITS THIRD SET OF CLUTCHES.

I CHANGED THE BATTERY AFTER I LEFT THE CAR SITTING IN MY GARAGE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. I TRIED TO DRIVE IT AFTER AND IT SHOOK AND JIGGLED, IT STUTTERED AND NEARLY HALTED COMPLETELY. I BARELY MADE IT HOME, ONLY 10 MINUTES AWAY. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS TO THE MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THE TRANSMISSION. THE VALLEY PICKED IT UP BECAUSE I WAS TOO AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. IT IS "FIXED" BUT WITH THE LIST OF ISSUES AND THE AMOUNT THAT NEEDED FIXED HAS MADE ME NERVOUS ABOUT DIVIN G IT.

A FRIEND AND I WERE IN JACKSON, TENNESSEE ON 9/28/2018. WE WERE STOPPED(STATIONARY)AT THE LIGHT ON OIL WELL DRIVE AND 45 BYPASS. WHILE WE WERE AT THE LIGHT, THE CAR STARTED GOING IN REVERSE AND MY FRIEND ASKED ME "DORIS, WHY ARE WE GOING BACKWARDS?" A FEW SECONDS LATER, THE CAR'S NOTIFICATION SYSTEM GAVE A MESSAGE FOR TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND PLEASE MOVE THE CAR TO SAFETY. AFTER I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES TO STOP THE CAR, IT SHOT FORWARD AND WE MANAGED TO GET TO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE CALLED A TOWING COMPANY, AND THEY PULLED IT TO GOLDEN CIRCLE AUTO GROUP, WHERE I HAD PURCHASED THE CAR FROM IN 2013. THE PROBLEM WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED BY THEM, AND ANOTHER FORD DEALERSHIP, STEVE MARSH FORD WAS THE LAST ONE TO DO REPAIR WORK ON THE CAR. I PAID THEM $700.00, AND THEY SAID THAT I NEED ANOTHER $2000. THE CAR DOES NOT RUN, AND IS SITTING IN MY YARD. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS LEMON EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN 2013.

MY CAR BEGAN TO STALL AS I STARTED DRIVING AND THE GEARS HAD TROUBLE SHIFTING TO THE NEXT GEAR AND THE CAR COULDN'T GO FASTER THAN 30 MILES PER HOUR WITHOUT WANTING TO TURN OFF. I TOOK IT TO BOGGUS FORD IN HARLINGEN, TEXAS AND THEY TOOK A WEEK TO INFORM ME THAT THEY HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT WAS THE CLUTCH. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM BACK IN JANUARY 2020 AND I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE SAME DEALERSHIP TO GET THE RECALL FIXED BUT LEADING UP TO NOW, IT WASN'T FIXED. I PICKED UP MY CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP NOVEMBER 22,2020 AND AS I DROVE OFF MY CAR STALLED BY THE HIGHWAY SO I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP BACK TO TELL THEM AND THEY SAID THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND THE PROBLEM MUST BE INTERNAL. MY CAR GOT PICKED UP BY RAYMOND'S TRANSMISSION SHOP BECAUSE IT DIDN'T TURN ON ANYMORE. THEY WORKED ON MY CAR AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL HAD NOT BEEN DONE AND THAT'S WHY MY CAR GAVE UP. I PAID RAYMOND'S TRANSMISSION $1,600 TO GET IT FIXED. BOGGUS FORD IN HARLINGEN TEXAS DID NOT FIX MY RECALL SO I WANT TO REPORT THEIR WRONGDOING AND SEEK COMPENSATION FOR THE FINANCIAL BURDEN THEY IMPOSED UPON ME. I DID NOT HAVE MY VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 3 WEEKS AND I HAD TO GET RIDES EVERY DAY. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING CAN BE DONE TO HELP ME.

NHTSA RECALL 18V-735 AND CODE P0606 INDICATES A FAULT IN THE ECM/PCM /P06B8 INTERNAL CONTROL MODULE TRANSACTION.

NHTSA ODI 11374027

THE CAR DISPLAYS THE P0902 OBII CODE. THE ENGINE STALLS AND WONT CHANGE GEARS PROPERLY. THIS IS SPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN TURNING SINCE THE CARS BEHIND YOU CAN'T SEE YOU'RE STALLING AND MAY CRASH INTO YOU. SOME TIMES IT GETS SO BAD THAT THE DASHBOARD DISPLAYS A MESSAGE THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAS HEATED UP AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR WON'T EVEN RUN OR CHANGE GEARS AT THAT POINT. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN DRIVING. SPECIALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IDLE FOR A WHILE.

I HAVE TRIED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED BECAUSE IT SHUDDERS, JERKS AND HESITATES EACH TIME I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULDN'T FIX THE RECALL OR WARRANTY ISSUE BECAUSE THE DIAGNOSTIC WASN'T SHOWING ANY PROBLEMS. THE CAR HAS CONTINUED TO DO THE SAME BUT NOW I'M TOLD THIS IS THE PROBLEM BUT IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THE MILEAGE IS AT 119,000 MILES AND IT EXCEEDED THE 100,000 MILES FOR THE WARRANTY. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP IT WAS UNDER 100,000. I THINK I'M BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BECAUSE FORD NEW OF THESE PROBLEMS AND I DON'T BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A TIME OR MILEAGE LIMIT. THE VEHICLE HAS STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF EXCELERATING, IT JERKS WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO PULL OFF AND SHUDDERS WHILE IN MOTION.
