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

WHILE DRIVING AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS THE TRUNK DECK LID FLEW OPEN. AS I WAS SLOWING UP TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY THE TRUNK LID BLOCKED MY CENTER REVIEW MIRROR AND MADE IT UNSAFE TO GET TO THE SIDE IF THE ROAD. AT CITY SPEEDS 20-30 MPH I HAVE HAD THE DECK LID OPEN AND IT IMMEDIATELY BLOCKS THE VIEW OF THE MIRROR. TRUNK HAD NOTHING IN IT THAT WAS BLOCKING OR HITTING THE TRUNK RELEASE CABLES OR THE WORING HARNESS. INSPECTION OF THE WIRING HARNESS SHOWS NO VISABLE DAMAGE. POSSIBLE WIRING SHORT IN A NON-ACCESSIBLE LOCATION.

VEHICLE JERKS ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY. NHTSA HAS ALREADY RECEIVED SEVERAL COMPLAINT REGARDING THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A FORCED RECALL? IT'S A PROBLEM THAT AFFECTS SEVERAL CUSTOMER'S DRIVING THE SAME MODEL.

THE CAR SHUDDERS AND SHAKES WHILE DRIVING! THE VEHICLE STALLS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR AT YEILD SIGNS ON ANY TYPE OF ROAD.WHEN STOPPED AT RED LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS AND TRYING TO START OFF CAR SHUDDERS AND SHAKES SO BAD IT MAY TAKE A FEW MINUTES FOR THE CAR TO ACTUALLY GO AGAIN. THE WORST ASPECT IS WHEN TRYING TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC OF EXPRESSWAYS OR LOCAL ROADS AND THE CAR STALLS!

MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN BROUGHT IN FOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES BEFORE FOR SLIPPING, AND DELAY WHEN THE GAS IS DEPRESSED. SINCE THE REPAIR I'VE NOTICED THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION WHILE PUT IN REVERSE WILL FEEL LIKE IT SLIPS INTO NEUTRAL. IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS BACKING INTO MY PARKING SPOT IN MY APARTMENT COMPLEX. THE TRANSMISSION IS ALSO VERY JERKY WHEN ACCELERATING ON AN INCLINE AND WILL START TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THIS WAS ALSO A PROBLEM PRIOR TO THE INITIAL REPAIR SO I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS SIGNIFYING THE RETURN OF THE PROBLEM. IN ADDITION TO THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL ARE ALSO NON-RESPONSIVE OR WILL CONTROL SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR (EX: VOLUME + AND - CHANGE THE RADIO STATION OR END A CALL). IN ADDITION TO THIS, THE SYNC SYSTEM WILL EITHER NOT CONNECT TO THE PHONE VIA BLUETOOTH OCCASIONALLY OR IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE THE DEVICE. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE PHONE CONNECTING IS A GALAXY S7, SO I KNOW IT IS COMPATIBLE. THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN ON GOING AND WERE ADDRESSED IN THE INITIAL TRANSMISSION REPAIRS BUT THEY WERE NOT RESOLVED. THE SECOND TRANSMISSION ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN ON THE ANNOTATED DATE.

TRANSMISSION SEALS ARE LEAKING. FORD PUT OUT A MASSIVE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM TSB THAT ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR FOCUSES BUILT BEFORE JUNE 2013. MY CAR WAS BUILT WITHIN 6 MONTHS AFTER THAT DATE BUT HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THEY PUT OUT ANOTHER TSB WITH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE TRANSMISSION WHICH DOES COVER MY CAR BUT IT DOES NOT COVER THE TRANSMISSION SEALS. FORD KNOWS IT HAS A MASSIVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WHICH WAS NOT PROPERLY FIXED WHEN MY CAR WAS PRODUCED. YET I AM ON THE HOOK FOR PAYING FOR THE FIX.

I BOUGHT MY CAR JUST A FEW WEEKS AGO, 4/2017 ALMOST IMMEDIATELY IT STARTED THIS "SPUTTERING" ANYTIME I WOULD MOVE FORWARD FROM A COMPLETE STOP. SOME PEOPLE CALLING THIS A SHUTTER. THE HESITATION IS AT EVERY STOP ON EVERY TAKE OFF. I TOOK IT IN TO A FORD DEALERSHIP NEAR MY HOME, & I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A KNOWN COMMON PROBLEM AT FORD & IT INVOLVED A CLUTCH ISSUE OR FAULTY TCM WITH THIS AUTOMATIC MANUAL TRANSMISSION. FORD WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, YET CONTINUED TO SELL THESE CARS. THE FORD SERVICE TECH MANAGER AFTER HEARING MY ISSUES, LOOKED UP MY CARS ZIN & TOLD ME THAT FORD STOPPED THE RECALL ON MY MODEL FOCUS ON CARS MADE AFTER JUNE 2013. MY CAR WAS BUILT 8/13 TWO MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL DEADLINE. SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT EVERY CAR MADE IN THIS FOCUS STYLE FROM 2012 -2014 EXCEPT MY CAR AND A FEW OTHERS BILL AFTER 6/13 ARE COVERED UNDER A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE THAT I AM HAVING. I WAS TOLD THIS IS BECAUSE THEY PUT NEW TYPE SEALS IN THE TRANSMISSION AFTER 6/13. THEY DID A TCM FLASH TO THE TRANSMISSION THAT IS COVERED UNDER A RECALL SO FORD KNOWS THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE EVEN FOR CARS MADE AFTER 6/13 OR THEY WOULD NOT NEED TO HAVE A RECALL ISSUED FOR IT. THE MANGER TOOK IN MY COMPLAINTS IN STRIDE AND SAID MANY FOCUS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. SO I GUESS I JUST BOUGHT THE MOST DANGEROUS VEHICLE THAT I HAVE EVER DRIVEN (30 YEARS AND 10 CARS LATER) IN MY LIFE. I'M GUESS I'M WONDERING WHY FORD WOULD STOP THE RECALL MIDYEAR WHEN CLEARLY THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS OBVIOUSLY IN CARS AFTER BEING BUILT ON OR AFTER 6/13. IT SHUDDERS AT TAKE OFF, HAS TROUBLE GOING FROM FIRST TO SECOND. THE CAR DOES THIS WHEN STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP MOSTLY BUT IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO A LIGHT, THE LIGHTS CHANGES AND THE CAR SOMETIMES HESITATES OR LURCHES AS ITS TRY'S TO FIND THE RIGHT GEAR WHILE STARTING TO GOING FASTER AGAIN.

AFTER BEING STALLED IN TRAFFIC FOR OVER AN HOUR I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND STARTED MY VEHICLE TO LEAVE. IMMEDIATELY I COULD FEEL SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY STEERING AND MY ALERT POPPED ON AND SAID PEER STEERING ASSIST WARNING. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT'S A COMMON FOR THE ELECTRIC COMPONENT TO FAIL AFTER IDLING. THEY SAID THAT'S THIS HAS HAPPENED TO PEOPLE AS THEY ARE DRIVING. STEERING JUST FAILS. THEY SAID IT WAS A FUSE THAT OVERHEATS AFTER IDLING FOR SO LONG WITHOUT WARNING. IF THIS IS A COMPONENT THAT FAILS THAT AFFECTS STEERING IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND CHANGED.

NOT EVEN A YEAR LATER, DOING IT AGAIN AND FORD IS TELLING ME THERE IS NO WARRANTY, IT IS OUT OF THE 60,000 MILE WARRANTY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR. THEY WANT ME TO PAY $1100 OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE A NEW CLUTCH DUE TO SHEDDER TEST FAILING AGAIN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS WHEN THEY KNOW A PROBLEM EXISTS

IT ALL STARTED ONE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED MY 2014 FOCUS CAR FROM A DEALER. WHEN I PULL OUT FROM A STOP SIGN OR WHEN ACCELERATING AS THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN, THE CAR HESITATES AND SPUTTERS BEFORE FINALLY KICKING INTO GEAR. IT SEEMS TO BE FINE ONCE IT SETTLES INTO PLACE BUT IT'S PRETTY SCARY UNTIL IT DOES. I DREAD WHEN I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. IT SEEMED TO BE CLOSE TO BREAKING DOWN OR STALLING ON A FEW OCCASIONS. I'M ONLY A FEW DAYS INTO OWNING THIS CAR AND I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WAS PROMISED A LONG LIFE FOR THIS CAR BUT NOW I'M NOT SO SURE, THE SYMPTOMS ARE SOMEWHAT SIMILAR TO THE LAST CAR I OWNED (AN ESCAPE) - SPUTTERING, HESITATION, STALLING AND THEN IT TOTALLY QUIT ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ON A HILL. THE ENGINE BLEW UP. THIS HAPPENED AFTER I PICKED UP THE CAR AFTER REPAIRS FROM THE SAME DEALER. FOR THE SAME SYMPTOMS. MORE TO THAT STORY BUT I AM AFRAID TO BRING IT BACK FOR REPAIRS FEARING WHATEVER IS WRONG WITH IT, IT WONT BE COVERED. BUT WHAT CHOICE DO I HAVE? HELP?

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. CAR STUTTERS DURING WHEN YOU TRY TO QUICKLY ACCELERATE. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM FIRST GEAR INTO A TURN OR MERGING THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE HIT SEVERAL TIMES SINCE PURCHASING IT. DRIVING IN URBAN AREAS IS A LOT OF TROUBLE AS YOU NEED TO QUICKLY GET YOURSELF ONTO THE STREETS BUT THE VEHICLE FAILS TO PERFORM LEAVING ME HAVING TO VERY SLOWLY ACCELERATE OUT OF FIRST GEAR AS TO NOT HAVE IT COMPLETELY LOSE POWER. THIS TRANSMISSION IS JUNK.
