Premature Clutch Wear
2015 Ford Focus
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2015 Ford Focus & its "Powershift" transmission has a defect trend where the car shudders when accelerating, especially when starting uphill.
Most owners have reported their Ford Focus remains driveable while the vehicle is still at low mileage, but the shuddering is annoying & unpleasant & may reduce the resale value of the vehicle.
However, owners of higher-mileage vehicles from earlier 3rd generation Focus model years report transmission failure & a host of other major & expensive transmission-related problems. Potential buyers beware.

My daughter purchased her 2015 Ford Focus on 10/31/2016, and 2 weeks later she had to have the clutch replaced (that was covered under warranty). Since then, she has had to replace it 3 times and we are now fighting Ford to do a buy back. We cannot afford $2,800 every year to have it replaced. We have owned Fords in the past and never again!!! It's always the transmission and now with her car it's the clutch. And, Ford has refused to have it fixed. We are so over Ford!!!
