Transmission issues

- Powder Springs, GA, USA

I was stopped at a stop sign in my 2016 Ford Focus Hatchback. I looked both ways and proceeded to hit my gas pedal. The car moved as it should and normally. Halfway through the lane my car stopped accelerating and i put my gas pedal to the floor and my car just continued coasting slowly. I panicked looking at the car coming towards me then let go and stepped on it again finally it kicking into gear and then making it across. This happened later in the day again while driving on a straight road. (Luckily this didn-??t put me in danger but did catch me by surprise again) I tried calling multiple dealerships about this and they just said it-??d cost $125 for them to take a look. But i know it-??s deeper than that and here-??s why. My friend has a 2015 Ford Focus and his has been experiencing similar issues. As well as a family members co-worker who has a 2017 Ford Focus they-??re all hatchbacks keep in mind.

So i went out and i met a sales associate from a dealership who told me his friend has a 2016 Ford Focus Hatchback that was dealing with the exact same problem as me. As well as 4 others that week who-??s been coming in looking for a new car with their personal trade in vehicle being. You guessed it, a Ford Focus with transmission issues.
