Hesitation In Lower Gears
2012 Ford Focus (Page 2 of 2)
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: You should probably steer clear of the 2012 Focus. Otherwise, you might not be able to steer at all.
The 2012 is the first Focus to offer Electronic Power Assist Steering (EPAS). It's also the first year with massive power steering failure. These things are not mutually exclusive.
And while you wait for your steering to disappear, you'll be greeted with a transmission that shudders, vibrates or won't shift at all.

I am angry that at the time I bought this car, the salesman said nothing about the car being "an automatic with a standard transmission". That term was said to me only when I took the car back to the dealership to look at the problem. Had he told me, I know that would have raised a red flag for me.
Also, prior to them working on the transmission, it rolled backwards at a red light.
