I've had transmission problems since purchasing the car. Two days ago the car would not go into reverse and the engine light came on - it was stuck in the garage at this time. I was finally able to get the car to reverse and the light went off a few hours later. Yesterday the car, again, would not reverse and the engine light came back on. This time it was stuck in a parking lot. After many attempts, some of which lead to the car not starting at all, the car finally turned on, and reversed after roughly half an hour. This morning I took the car to webb Ford in highland, in for repairs as the transmission has a 100,000 mile warranty. The dealership said they are backed up for over 2 weeks and would not even let me leave my car. The nest closest dealer in calumet city, il is not taking transmission work at all. Now, after leaving work, my car will not go over 15mph without jerking and chugging and it seems that I have no way to get the transmission fixed even though it's under warranty because no one will take my car.

Country Ford stated that they fixed the issue. I called them the same day that the issue was still on going. They stated that it might have been the reset of the computer. I'm very concern the issue was not fix because the needed part wasn't available at the time. The car still stalls when it's at half a tank and completely stalls when it's at a quarter tank. This is not safe to be driving down highways or in a busy city. I am concern with with my health and life it suddenly shots off on a busy road.

I purchased a 2013 Ford Focus SE on October 2014. Immediately noticed issues with car shaking upon acceleration. Figured it had to do with the torque I didn't know better. Wasn't till I started having problems starting car and it was hesitating everytime I stopped at a light. After few minutes it would pick up speed without hesitating until I stopped again.( this car is an automatic but feels like a standard.) had recalls and repairs done in 2015, a week after that had to take car back again for same issues. It was repaired again. Here we are September 16, 2019 and same issues. But now dealership is saying recall expires 7 yrs from when car was made. Not purchased. I was just a week past the expiration date. Now I have to pay out of pocket for something Ford could not get done right. Not only the first time, second and now third time! this will be the last time I purchase a Ford.

Vehicle shudders when I try to accelerate slowly from a stop sign or making a turn on to a street. Sometimes shudders when I am already moving but trying to speed up with traffic such as being on a highway. Also when im low on gas before it reaches E it completely shuts down. No gas light or shuddering. I had champion Ford in erie pa look into this but there was no code or anything to go by. Im not sure what to do. It has been happening frquently now but everyone I talk to says its hard to determine without a code, but what if my control module is messed up or something" I have 5 kids I Transport everyday and worried that this can cause an accident if somethings not done"
