I owned this vehicle since March 25, 2016. I've had to take vehicle back to dealership for repairs on transmission issues. I would always be at a red light when the car would would shudder when I start to move.

I have had the clutch in this vehicle replaced 3 times and it currently has 37014 miles. I have had the steering wheel replaced because the heated steering wheel didn't work. I had the transmission module reprogrammed 3 times. And now my backup camera suddenly turns pitch black. It's random. I could just go into reverse and it is already pitch black. Or I could be reversing with a clear screen and then it turns pitch black.

I just recently bought a car and it has been stalling while driving and having difficulty starting/revving itself up after I fill the gas tank. I have taken it to a shop to get a diagnosis and they said that it might have been the recall for the gas tank. Well, I looked up to see if my car had already gotten fix for the recall and it said that it did. So it might have happened again, and I'm not quite sure what to do. It happens every so often. As the engine light also comes on and off. When the light is off, the car is perfectly fine, but when it's on, it tries to stall.

I was involved in a spin out due to rainy weather on Monday April 6th, 2020. The car ended up hitting the concrete divider in the center of the freeway in access of 55 mph and the airbags did not deploy, even though the vehicle had frontal/ side impacts. I was unharmed in the event, but it is concerning to me, as my car was totaled and the frame warped around the engine.

Earlier in January, I was driving down interstate 70 from Kansas City to St. Louis at the rate of 77 mph. All of a sudden the car dings and sends a message on the dash "engine failure" and the car literally shuts down. I had no control over the car, no lights, no brakes, nothing! luckily I got to the shoulder of the road safely and finally came to a stop. I put the car in park and turned the key off. Still nothing... I waited about 5 minutes and then turned the car back on and thankfully it started. I drove it to the nearest place to have them run a diagnostic test and nothing came up. Finally got it home. It's not done this again, but now it runs rough. Like really rough. I've had the transmission clutch fixed once already. Luckily it was still under warranty. I will be contacting my local Ford dealer about this issue. Was unaware it was under recall.

While driving, my car all of a sudden stopped in the middle of turning, my foot was on the gas pedal and it wouldn't move. After a few attempts to get it going, it finally took off and started to make a grinding noise and shaking once it got above 25 mph. I've been to scared to drive it ever since.

When I first bought the car it started making noise when I drove it I took it in they said they fixed the problems it was still under warranty. After a couple of weeks it started making the same noises so when I had time a couple of months later I took it in again and they told me it was the transmission and that my warranty was not active anymore. It made the same noises the first time I took it in and they never said it was the transmission it was a wheel problem. I'm asking for help on what to do thanks.

The update was done on the PCM due to vehicle not starting and fuel gage saying empty when I knew it had more than half tank. Now it is doing the same thing only worse. It worries me that this has cause my ignition to go bad as well due to this recall.

Transmission shuddering and vibrating upon acceleration. Vehicle shakes violently at most starts and done stops. Vehicle also does these things most of the time : jerking hesitation while changing gears, premature internal wear, delays in downshifting and, in some cases, sudden or delayed acceleration. Vehicle actually slipped out of gear yesterday into another parked vehicle. Enough is enough. Took to dealership they told me it's the way I drive it. Had mechanic drive it around parking lot w me and told me there's no problem w it!!

I have a 2016 Ford Focus and had nothing but problems with it since day one I've had the car at dealership several times for the wipers first they said can't find anything wrong next they said they adjusted the wipers then they said they changed the motor. It still stops in my view whenever it rains I told them it's still happening and I was told to change the wipers. I'm no I should not have to with a new car. One morning I get into the car and had frost on the inside of my windshield I turned the defrost on and watch my windshield crack brought to Ford and they said something hit it like a rock I explained what happened but wouldn't acknowledge that there was a defect I told them that if the windshield had a solid seal I would not get frost on the inside they brushed me off. And now my car doesn't start right away and I called customer service and all they said was nothing they can do about it. I'm so frustrated with this car since day one no one at Ford will help me. There are other problems like the interior lights keep going out. I'm so tired of wasting my time bringing the car to the dealership being made to feel like an idiot. Ford says they pride themselves on customer service but I yet to see it as every time they treat me like I'm making things up. I want my car in safe driving condition. Is that to much to ask for!!!!it shouldn't be but that's how for makes me feel..,I showed videos of windshield wipers also but I'm crazy

My car is not yet three years old and I have had the clutch replaced twice. On July 2, 2019, I was told I needed another clutch, waited all day for the dealership to find a part, only to be told the next day that I didn't need a new clutch. However, my car is still making the rattling noise that has led to my clutch being replaced the other two times. On my second replacement in September of 2018, I was encouraged to "unload" my car as soon as I could as my clutch could not permanently be fixed, and that they could replace it, but that I would be back again in 6 months. When, in July of this year, I went from needing a new clutch, to suddenly not, I ended up with my car back at the dealership on July 16, 2016 to have them test the clutch again. I asked the service rep if it was true that my clutch could not be permanently fixed and he said that yes, unfortunately that was true. He explained to me the dual clutch and said that it was an experiment that worked in the factory, but failed in the real world. Possibly, most concerning to me, is that the car has twice, in the last couple of months, lurched forward with the car in reverse. The first time it happened, I was backing into my garage, and my car lurched forward when I pushed on the gas with the car in reverse. I barely missed hitting my neighbors fence. The second time, I was on my parking slab. When I went to back up, it lurched forward with the car in reverse. Since, on my most recent visit, they could not duplicate this action in my car they fixed nothing. They also, once again did not replace the clutch, and my car is still rattling. I've also had the two other warranty issues with this car. I have also had the block heater replaced, and I had a lose ball joint that needed to be replaced. The rattling and shuddering that I've experienced always happens when accelerating.

The transmission slips and the car shudders. I have had it repaired 3 times and every time the "clutch" goes bad again. The car will occasionally roll back when on a hill and also upon take off there's a delay and then the car shudders and then will start to go. There's also times that the rpms will go higher than they should before the car shifts into the next gear.

Automatic transmission sometimes misses gears or slips into neutral while accelerating. So far it has always found a gear eventually, but causes a temporary slowdown that may eventually cause an accident. Ford says there is no issue or the clutch pack needs to be replaced. This is a dangerous design flaw Ford is aware of.

Vehicle seems to hesitate when stepping on gas

- Riverview, MI, USA

Canister purge valve, engine stall recall. I have been having this issue since I recieved the car febuary 2017. The issues was when I would step on the gas to drive, it would stall slowly the speed from its original speed and can feel a pull and push from the car trying to speed up even when I step on the gas pedal; the car moves slow, its like its trying to go up a hill with effort but tireless when its not even going up a hill. Its makes a loud clank noise when it tries to speed up. It doesnt feel smooth when driving. I had call the manufacturer Ford since January 2019. They ask for my date of birth to supposely look for me in the system and make me wait for 12 minutes, then they hang up the call. I made an appointment at Ford January 2019, they canceled it the day before. I recalled Ford July 2019, they hang up on me again.
