CAR IS NOT STORING COMPUTER CODES WHEN IT ACTS UP. ON 7/17/18 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON I CALLED DEALER GOT AN APPOINTMENT FOR 7/17/18, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD GONE OFF BEFORE THE DEALER SAW THE CAR, AND THE ON BOARD COMPUTER DID NOT STORE A CODE FOR THEM TO FIGURE IT OUT.

THIS IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AS I'VE BEEN TOLD BY FORDS MECHANICS. WHEN YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR THEIR IS VIBRATION AND HESITATION WHEN SPEEDING UP. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PUSH THE ACCELERATOR IT'S LUCK THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL FOR A COUPLE SECONDS. IT HAS BEEN TO FORD FOR THIS PROBLEM A COUPLE OF TIMES. APPARENTLY IT'S THE ONLY FOR CAR WITH AN ELECTRIC SHIFTING TRANSMISSION

AT 37,000 MILES EXPERIENCED INTERMITTENT LOSS OF TRANSMISSION ENGAGEMENT. THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) REQUIRED REPLACEMENT, BUT ALSO DIRECTLY EFFECTED THE WEARING OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH ASSEMBLE. THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED UNSAFE SYMPTOMS OF INTERMITTENT LOSS OF TRANSMISSION POWER/ ENGAGEMENT WHILE DRIVING, AT START FROM A LIGHT, PULLING OUT INTO ROADWAY. THE TWO PARTS WERE REPLACED AT THAT TIME BY A FORD DEALER. NOW, AT 64,000 MILES THE PROBLEM IS REOCCURRING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN ONCE AGAIN TO A FORD DEALER AND A CLAIM TO FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAD TO BE INITIATED BY THE DEALER FOR PARTIAL COVERAGE. A $300 DEPOSIT HAD TO BE PAID TOWARD THE $1,700 REPAIR BILL. IN OUR HOUSEHOLD WE ALSO HAVE A 2013 FORD FOCUS THAT HAD TO BE REPAIRED THREE TIMES NOW AT APPROX. 75,000 MILES. (REPORTED SEPARATELY). THESE ISSUES ARE WELL KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED, HOWEVER, THE LEMON LAW OR NHTSA HAS DONE NOTHING TO HELP THE CONSUMER WITH MAKING FORD LIABLE FOR THE FULL COVERAGE OF THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH ASSEMBLY THAT IS DIRECTLY DAMAGED AND WORE OUT BECAUSE OF THE TCM DEFECT. FORD HAS ONLY EXTENDED A WARRANTY ON THE TCM, WHICH IS A VERY INEXPENSIVE PART OF THE PROBLEM.

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR THE ISSUE REGARING THE RECALL FOR "THE ENGINE MAY STALL DUE TO A STUCK CANISTER PURGE VALVE (CPV) WITHIN THE FUEL VAPOR SYSTEM" AND MY SECOND TRANSMISSION FIX WITHIN 10,000 MILES OF THE LAST TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION MODULE FIX, MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR 19 DAYS. WHEN I RECIEVED MY CAR BACK, MY TRANSMISSION WAS SHUTTERING SO BAD AND WOULDNT ACCELERATE AND WAS STUCK IN A GEAR AND WOULD NOT BREAK OR SPEED UP FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS. WHEN I TRIED TO TAKE THE CAR BACK IN, THEY TOLD ME THAT "THEY FIXED THE RECALLED ISSUE SO I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC." IN NOVEMBER, I FOUND OUT THAT FROM MAY TO NOV. I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON A BROKEN TRANSMISSION CLUTCH. IN NOVEMBER, THEY FINALLY PUT IN A NEW TRANSMISSION CLUTCH, HOWEVER DONT HAVE RECORD OF THEM CHECKING FOR THE RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR WORK, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS GOING TO TAKE A COUPLE OF HOURS, THEN IT TURNED INTO ONE TO TWO DAYS AND PUT ME IN A RENTAL, HOWEVER DIDNT COMMUNICATE WITH ME ABOUT THE STATUS OF MY CAR. I CALLED MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY, HOWEVER DIDNT RECIEVE ANY DETAILS FROM MY MECHANIC. ON SATURDAY, I CALLED AGAIN AND TALKED TO THE FRONT DESK AGENT. I TOLD HIM THAT MY CAR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE THE DAY PRIOR AND I HADNT RECIEVED ANY UPDATE ON MY CAR. LATER THAT DAY, I FINALLY RECIEVED A VOICEMAIL STATING THAT THEY HAD FINISHED THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH, HOWEVER FOUND A OIL LEAK AND THEY "HAD BEEN DOING WHAT BEST FOR ME" AND HAD BEEN FIXING IT WITHOUT COMMUNICATING TO ME ABOUT IT. MY CAR STAYED IN THE SHOP FOR AN ADDITONAL 4 DAYS TO FIX THE OIL LEAK. I ENDED UP BEING CHARGED FOR THE RENTAL CAR AFTER I WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS UNDER WARRENTY AND RECALL SO I DIDNT HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING. I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THAT THEY WERE DOING THIS WORK ON MY CAR UNTIL DAYS PRIOR. AFTER MORE THAN A MONTH, I AM STILL DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE 2014 FORD FOCUS SE BEGAN TO SPUTTER. CONTINUES TO DO SO UNTIL I GOT IN THE STREET ON MY HOME AND BEGAN GOING UNDER 10 MPH.

I ATTEMPTED TO START MY VEHICLE BUT NOTHING HAPPENED, IT DIDN'T TICK NOR TURN. WHAT DID HAPPEN THOUGH WAS MY ENTIRE COMPUTER SYSTEM BEGAN TO CUT ON AS IF THE VEHICLE HAD STARTED AND TURNED. RADIO ON, DASHBOARD LIGHTS PRESENT AND THEN CUT OFF, ALERT FOR MY LOW TIRE, TRIP TIMER BEGAN RUNNING. THEN AN ERROR CODE REGARDING SOMETHING IN THE LINES OF FUEL. WASN'T QUICK ENOUGH TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THE ERROR MESSAGE. WHEN I REMOVED MY KEY AND CALLED MY SISTER TO INFORM HER THAT I MAY NEED A RIDE FOR MYSELF AND MY 6 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, THE DASHBOARD NEEDLES JUMPED VIGOROUSLY. WHILE SITTING. IN THE VEHICLE AGAIN, THE COMPUTER SYSTEM OPENED UP AND MY TRIP TIMER BEGAN RUNNING AND THE RADIO. AGAIN WITHOUT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION, THEY WERE IN MY LAP. THE ENTIRE NIGHT WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY PERIODICALLY MY CAR WOULD CUT IN AND OFF, AND ENGAGE WITHOUT THE KEYS IN THE IGNITION NOR PRESENT NEAR HE CAR. CONSEQUENTLY, THE CONSTANT RUNNING OF THE VEHICLE BY IT SELF RAN THE BATTERY DEAD AS WELL. ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE FORD DEALERSHIP, WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, AND CHECK SERVICE AND THE TECHNICIAN WAS VERY RUDE AND CONTINUOUSLY INTERRUPTED ME. WHEN QUESTIONING REGARDING AND OPEN RECALL, 18S32, AND MENTIONING THAT NOT ONLY DID I CALL THE NTHSA NUMBER BUT I ALSO READ THE RECALL REGARDING MY VEHICLE SERVICEMAN BECAME EVEN MORE RUDE AND EVEN DISCONNECTED THE CALL.
