What 2,644 owners told NHTSA about the 2014 Ford Focus RS

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT FREEWAY SPEED, IN COMMUTE TRAFFIC, AND THE POWER SHUT DOWN AND AN ALERT SHOWED ON THE DASH "PULL OVER SAFELY". THERE WAS NO POWER LEFT IN MY ELECTRIC VEHICLE, SO I COASTED OVER TO THE SHOULDER. THE CAR WOULDN'T DRIVE. CAR WAS TOWED TO FORD, WHERE IT HAS TAKEN OVER 2 WEEKS, AND THEY ARE STATING THE WHOLE MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THERE ARE ONLY 17,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. I "GOOGLED" THE "PULL OVER SAFELY" ALERT, AND HAVE FOUND THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR FOR MANY PEOPLE, AND THAT FORD HAD RECALLED OVER 2,000 FORD FOCUS EV CARS, MODEL YEARS 2011-2013, FOR THIS EXACT REASON.

FIRST PROBLEM WAS THE CAR SHUDDERING AND JERKING. FORD GARAGE, REPAIR SOME TRANSMISSION SEALS, PROGRAMMING,REPLACED FUEL TANK, FUEL PUMP AND ENGINE WIRE HARNESS REPAIR. SHORTLY AFTER THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE ABILITY TO MOVE WHEN ACCELERATING, THE ENGINE RPM'S WOULD REV AND VEHICLE HAD LITTLE POWER TO MOVE. FORD GARAGE REPLACED CLUTCH AND DID PROGRAMMING. ON THE WAY HOME FROM THAT REPAIR, OUR CARE SUFFERED THE SAME SYMPTOMS IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR. IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP AND WE HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN WHAT WE WILL GET BACK.

SIX TIMES MY CAR'S ENGINE HAS STOPPED WORKING. EITHER I AM DRIVING AND IT GIVES ME A 10 SECOND WARNING BEFORE THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF OR I AM PARKED AND IT WON'T START UP PROPERLY. EVERY TIME IT GETS TOWED OR I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE UPDATED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM AND IT SHOULD BE FINE. FORD'S CORPORATE OFFICE HAS SAID RESULTS ARE INCONCLUSIVE AND THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP ME. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ONLINE, IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

MY VEHICLE HAS HAD NUMEROUS TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, GOING INTO REVERSE WHILE DRIVING, SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING, ETC. RECENTLY, THE POWER STEERING COMPLETELY WENT OUT AND REVERTED TO MANUAL STEERING. TODAY, WHILE DRIVING IT FOR A WHILE, I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AND PULLED OVER. UNDER THE HOOD, THE FUSE BOX HAD CAUGHT FIRE, BUT WAS BLOWN OUT BY THE WIND WHEN I OPENED THE HOOD. 20,500 MILES.

SINCE DAY ONE THIS CAR'S TRANSMISSION HAS NOT WORKED PROPERLY. I SHOULD HAVE JUST BROUGHT IT RIGHT BACK TO THE DEALER THAT DAY. IT HAS BEEN BACK 4 TIMES FOR TRANSMISSIONS ISSUES: SHUTTERING AT TAKE OFF, ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN WITHOUT YOUR FOOT ON THE GAS, KEEPS CHANGING GEARS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON A HIGHWAY, LURCHES FORWARD WHEN MOVING SLOWLY (PULLING INTO A GAS STATION), RPMS GO UP WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF OF THE GAS AND DO NOT DROP BACK DOWN AGAIN UNTIL YOU ARE AT A COMPLETE STOP. THE FRONT BRAKES ARE COMPLETELY WORN. I SEE THESE COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET OVER AND OVER AGAIN. TODAY WE WERE DRIVING THE CAR ON A HIGHWAY AND IT JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING. HAD TO PULL OVER VERY QUICKLY TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. MOTOR WAS STILL RUNNING WITH AN ENGINE FAULT MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED. FORD'S ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE DOESN'T EVEN COVER GETTING YOUR CAR OFF OF A TOLL ROAD AND LIVING IN NJ THEY ARE HARD TO AVOID. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THAT IS THE WAY THE CAR DRIVES. THEY WRITE UP THE PAPER WORK VERY VAGUE AND NEVER PUT THE CORRECT DESCRIPTION FOR THE ISSUES. THE CAR GOES IN AND OUT OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT - PROGRAMMING UPDATE. THERE ARE 479 COMPLAINTS FOR THIS CAR ON JUST THIS SITE FOR MOSTLY THE SAME ISSUE. THE OTHER 2 CARS I OWN HAVE 0 AND 35 COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE - BIG DIFFERENCE. MY LAST FORD.

WHILE ACCELERATING IN TRAFFIC YESTERDAY EVENING A WARNING APPEARED ON THE DISPLAY PANEL "STOP SAFELY NOW". I WAS UNABLE TO EXIT THE ROADWAY IMMEDIATELY DUE TO TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHILE APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE ENGINE OPERATING INDICATOR (A GREEN CAR WITH ARROWS POINTING FORWARD AND BACK) WAS NO LONGER ON BUT ACCESSORIES ON THE CAR WORKED PROPERLY (E.G. HEADLIGHTS, POWER STEERING, ETC) I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN OFF THE CAR WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL ENGAGED IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESTART BUT CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF. I WAS ABLE TO EVENTUALLY PUSH THE CAR OFF OF THE ROADWAY INTO A PARKING LOT. THE CAR'S IGNITION TURNED OFF ONCE I WAS BACK IN THE VEHICLE AND THE DOOR CLOSED. I POWERED THE CAR ON AFTER IT HAD FULLY SHUT DOWN AND IT RETURNED TO OPERATING NORMALLY. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE ALL-ELECTRIC FORD FOCUS. THANK YOU. *TR UPDATED 1/28/16 *JS

VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION SHIFTS INTO OTHER GEARS WHILE IN DRIVE. THREE SEPARATE TIMES IT HAS WENT INTO REVERSE. TWICE WHILE COMING FROM A STOP, ONCE WHILE IN MID DRIVE. MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP A TOTAL OF 57 DAYS SO FAR THIS YEAR, GOT IT BACK ON FRIDAY AFTER A FIELD SERVICE ENGINEER CAME TO LOOK AT IT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE ANY ISSUES WITH THE TRANSMISSION, BUT WOULD NOT CERTIFY IT AS "SAFE." TODAY, I WAS DRIVING AT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ENGINE REVVED HIGH AND THE DASH DISPLAY SHOWED I WAS IN PARK. IT LIMPED TO A STOP ON THE HIGHWAY THEN FLASHED "TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK P" BEFORE IT SHUT DOWN. AFTER CALMING MY NERVES JUST A BIT, I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABOUT 4 MILES FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT (SLOWLY) TO THEM. I WAS ABLE TO SNAP A PHOTO SHOWING THE VEHICLE IN PARK DOING 65MPH WITH AN RPM OF 3500. HOWEVER, FROM PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE, THIS IS NOT "PROOF" IF THE ISSUE IS NOT DUPLICATED BY FORD DIRECTLY. SO TO DATE AT 19,970 MILES, THE VEHICLE HAS WENT OUT OF GEAR 4 TIMES. THE VEHICLE STOPPING ON A HIGHWAY BY GOING INTO REVERSE AND PARK IS NOT A SAFE CONDITION THAT COULD LEAD TO A CRASH.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WITH NO POWER. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND DISPLAYED A YELLOW TOOL WRENCH THAT READ 'SEE MANUAL' AND THEN WOULD CHANGE TO A YELLOW TRIANGLE WITH A RED EXCLAMATION MARK THAT READ 'STOP VEHICLE SAFELY.' HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AV FORD AND THEY HAVE BEEN NOTHING BUT UNHELPFUL. THEY STATE IT'S WATER INTRUSION TO THE CONNECTORS AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE MANUFACTURE WARRANTY AND TO FILE A CLAIM WITH MY AUTO INSURANCE COMPANY. THEY CANNOT PROVIDE ANY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING TO CONCLUDE THEIR WATER INTRUSION TO THE CONNECTOR'S THEORY. WE HAD A RAINSTORM THE DAY BEFORE I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO THEM. THEY ARE USING WATER INTRUSION DAMAGE AS A SCAPEGOAT TO FIXING THE REAL ISSUE WHICH IS A DEFECT TO THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE. FORD DID HOWEVER PROVIDE ME A WRITTEN ESTIMATE OF REPAIR FOR $33,160.42. THIS IS ABSURD AND IS MORE THAN THE CAR IS EVEN WORTH. THESE CARS CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE DESPITE OF THE RECALL THEY HAD FOR THIS PROBLEM. FORD FOCUS ELECTRIC VEHICLES THAT WERE NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL RECALL IN NOVEMBER 2013 ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER BECAUSE THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED.

VEHICLE HAS HAD A RED FLUID LEAK FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THE CAR HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE MANY TIMES AND CURRENTLY FILING LEMON LAW ARBITRATION. THE CAR HAS BEEN OUT OF COMMISSION FOR 55 DAYS ALTOGETHER SINCE IT'S PURCHASE IN JANUARY THIS YEAR DUE TO THE FLUID LEAK WHICH SEEMS TO BE MORE OF COOLANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE. IT IS BURNING OIL AND OR LOSING IT SOMEWHERE THAT ISN'T VISIBLE. IT ALSO HAS HAD ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH STARTING AS WELL AS THE RADIO CLOCK AND PRESETS ALL RESETTING AFTER SITTING FOR MORE THAN 24 HOURS. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE SUNROOF RESALES AFTER IT HAD LEAKED FOR OVER TWO MONTHS AND THE DEALERSHIP WASN'T ABLE TO FIND THE LEAK. THE FRONT END MAKES HORRIBLE NOISES WHEN DECELERATING. IT GRINDS AND WHINES AS IF SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO BLOW UP. I'VE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALER FOR ALL OF THESE CONCERNS AND ONLY ONE OF THEM HAS BEEN RESOLVED FULLY. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MY PURCHASE.

WHEN I TAKE OFF FROM BEING STOPPED, MY CAR DRAGS WITH A VIBRATION. WHEN I PICK UP SPEED ON THE FREEWAY MY CAR SLIDES TO THE LEFT AND I LOSE THE CONTROL OF THE STEERING. MY PHONE NUMBERS HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO BE SYNC TO MY CAR BECAUSE THE ELECTRICAL PART IS DEFECTIVE. MY TIRES LIGHT STAYS ON OFF AND ON. IT FEELS AS IF SOMETHING IS GETTING LOSER UNDER THE REAR OF MY CAR. ON FOX 2 NEWS THIS MORNING, THEY ANNOUNCED A RECALL ON FORD CAR AXLES. TODAY IS OCTOBER 1, 2015. THE DATE OF THE LAST INCIDENT IS GIVEN BELOW. BUT I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS FOR A WHILE. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE LIGHT AND TIRES, THEY JUST RESET IT. THEY DIDN'T TAKE TIME TO TEST DRIVE IT AND REALLY ADDRESS MY PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A ACCIDENT OR DIE IN MY CAR. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THESE PROBLEMS TAKEN CARE OF.

ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2015, WHILE MY SON WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH IN THE CARPOOL LANE, THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLED ON HIM AND LOSS ALL POWER TO THE CAR. A MESSAGE POPPED UP ON THE DASH IN AN ORANGE TRIANGLE STATED "STOP SAFELY NOW". SINCE HE WAS IN THE CARPOOL LANE, HE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO GET THE CAR OFF TO THE SIDE. HE WAS STRANDED IN A BUSY CARPOOL LANE AND ALMOST GOT REAR END FROM BEHIND WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY CUT OFF ALL POWER AND CAME TO A STOP. THIS HAS PUT MY SON IN A GREAT DANGER SITUATION!!! HE COULD HAVE GOT REAR ENDED AND THE STALLING OF THE CAR COULD HAVE CAUSED A MULTI-CARS ACCIDENT IN THE CARPOOL LANE ON THE FREEWAY. SOMEHOW HE MANAGED TO ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AFTER TURNING THE CAR ON, OFF AND OPENING THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND CLOSING IT SEVERAL TIME. THE CAR CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM ON AND OFF FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. WE FINALLY GOT THE CAR INTO FORD DEALERSHIP SEPTEMBER 24, 2015. AT THE TIME OF THIS REPORT, FORD DEALERSHIP HAS NOT CALL ME WITH A CAUSE FOR THE ISSUE. I ALSO NOTED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A SIMILAR ISSUE THAT WAS ISSUED FROM FORD FOR THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE FOR MODEL 2012 TO 2014. THE SERVICEMAN AT FORD DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ON THAT RECALL LIST YET MY SON STILL ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUE THAT WAS DESCRIBED IN THE NHTSA INVESTIGATION REPORT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. I DONT THINK FORD HAS DONE ENOUGH TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM.
